New transfer commit Wyatt Hanoian

[Proud Army Wife]

Hanoian slashed .357/.498/.573, earning Mountain West freshman of the year honors at Air Force.

The 5-foot-9 Hanoian walked 32 times and was hit by 24 pitches while striking out only 21 times. He had 24 extra-base hits with six homers, four triples and 14 doubles.

Hanoian’s game is about getting on base. He wanted to be one of the nation’s leaders in hit by pitches and will do anything to get on base so he can score.

Thank you, they shared the stats for free, but I wanted to see what all he had to say about his recruitment to Tennessee.

If you attend any of the service academies this is how it works: You can voluntarily leave at any time up to the first day of classes your junior year with no obligation. If you leave after that, regardless of the reason (dismissed for grades, honor violation, you just quit, etc.), you are committed to serve as an enlisted person in the AF for a period of time (normally two years on active duty, possibly some reserve time). Once you graduate, you are commissioned as an officer in the active AF and have a five-year commitment following graduation. If you become a pilot, you must serve ten years following the completion of pilot training primarily because it costs between $1.5 and $2M to train a pilot.

The most famous professional athletes who graduated from the service academies are men such as Roger Stauback who served in the Navy and came back to a Hall of Fame career in the NFL; Chad Henning (AF A-10 pilot) who served and came back to be an all-pro defensive tackle for the Dallas Cowboys; and David Robimson who served on both active duty and the reserves before becoming a Hall of Fame NBA player for the Spurs. The rules are slightly different today with waivers given over the years to play professional sports after serving in some capacity -- depending on the particular circumstances and who was serving as President at the time. Supposedly, President Trump is considering changing some of the policies to be a little more lenient, but as I said, it depends on who is President and what they want to allow through policy change. Hope this helps. My class at the AF Academy started with just over 1400 freshmen and graduated around 700. So, a lot of attrition occurs naturally and varies greatly over the years and depending on world events. I swerved 30 years and retired as an AF General.

Unless you just can't make the grade as a student. Then are you removed from the class for not being able to do the school work. If a player sees the writing on the wall and chooses to leave can the academy on his own can he be stopped?

Probably depends on the timing. I THINK if you flunk out after commitment day you may have to serve time as enlisted. There could be financial impacts too. It's been a few years since our son graduated. That said, the academies will do all they can to help. For example, my daughter and classmates had the professor's home phone number and was told if they needed help after class to call ANYTIME. And he meant it. It is an experience but you must have the Want To.

Thank you for your service. I will step aside from commenting since we have an in house expert.

We had a famous VFL who transferred FROM UT to West Point:

Joe Steffy played for the Vols in 1944 and then transferred to West Point where he won the Outland Trophy in 47. I was 2 years behind his sister Ellen in school who was 20 years younger than Joe. He played at Baylor in Chattanooga.

They can make you pay back if they want to but that happens very rarely. Normally they are just adamant that you give them props so it helps their recruiting. Skenes has done that incredibly. He has worn special stuff throughout his career to represent them and speaks highly of his time there.

Just a little more detail, we have had 2 family members at USAFA. The only payback you would have is if you officially show up for your 3rd or Junior fall semester. Prior to that they make it clear that you can be released from all commitments with no penalties. If you decide to leave after showing up, that, it is a significant potential financial and military payback.

Much respect for your service to our country. Thanks for stepping into the forum and giving everyone the real lowdown on how this works. Quite interesting.

That’s outstanding. A sincere thank you and genuine appreciation for your service. May I ask what was the most rewarding and the most challenging aspect of being an AF General? Which location was your favorite? My Dad was a Naval Aviator—part of the Seawolves in Vietnam.

Thank you, sir, for the information. I served 4 years in the AF--1967--1971. Having grown up without a father, the AF taught me life lessons that I would otherwise not have. Back in the day, the military would either make you or break you. I saw plenty of guys get broke

The sky is the limit with this guy…

But, will the heavier air in the east Tennessee skies bring his batting average down compared to the thin air out west?

 

[StarRaider]

Only on VN do you get the USAFA commitment requirements from a Cadet/USAF General

 

[taylorvol]

Humid air is less dense so ball travels farther. You want high heat and high humidity for more Homeruns. High altitude helps as well.
