From one of the most beautiful college campuses in the U.S., comes today’s interview with the head coach of the United States Military Academy Black Knights, Matt Reid. Coach Reid filled the head coaching position on an interim basis for the 2014 season, but we can now call him the official head coach. Coach Reid has an extensive resume, having coached at five schools in between his playing days at Richmond and landing at West Point.

In today’s episode, we learned a great deal about the USMA, touching on recruiting, post-school military commitment, leadership, facilities, and tradition. What an incredibly fascinating place. Don’t feel sorry for these guys — they’ve got a ton of things going for them that attract top flight baseball players.
