- The 1912 Army Cadets football team was an American football team that represented the United States Military Academy as an independent during the 1912 college football season. Under head coach Ernest Graves Sr., the Cadets compiled a 5–3 record and outscored opponents by a total of 108 to 59. The Cadets lost to a one-loss Yale team, a strong Carlisle Indians team led by 1912 decathlon gold medalist Jim Thorpe, and to Navy in the annual Army–Navy Game. Dwight D. Eisenhower, later the 34th president of the United States, played at the halfback position before suffering a career-ending injury in a game against Tufts. Three players started all eight games for Army: Leland Hobbs at halfback; Vernon Prichard at quarterback; and Vern Scott Purnell at center. Other notable players on the team included Omar Bradley, who was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Korean War; Robert Neyland, later the long-time head football coach at the University of Tennessee; Geoffrey Keyes, Leland Devore, William M. Hoge, and Louis A. Merrilat. (en)
