Maj. Chad Bagley

Position: Director of Football Operations Alma Mater: West Point (1995)

Maj. Chad Bagley is in his sixth season with the Army football program, and second year as the Director of Football Operations. Bagley served as the Deputy Director of Football Operations for the previous four seasons.

As the team's director of football operations, Bagley serves as "Military Coordinator." While all teams have an offensive and defensive coordinator, the uniqueness of the cadet-athlete experience at West Point requires additional coordination in areas such as summer military training, Army Physical Fitness Tests and academic scheduling.

Bagley provides a myriad of logistical and administrative support to the program, while also offering a wealth of knowledge of the Academy and the Army.

A 1995 graduate of West Point, Bagley was a four-year member of the Black Knights' golf team, earning three varsity letters during his tenure in the Black, Gold and Gray. He earned All-Patriot League honors as a junior and served as the Black Knights' team captain during his final campaign. Bagley filled in as Army's interim head golf coach last fall.

Commissioned in the Field Artillery branch of the U.S. Army following graduation, Bagley served tours at Ft. Drum (1995-98) and Ft. Stewart (1999-2002) before returning to West Point. He earned a master's degree in counseling and leader development from Long Island University in 2003, before assuming duties as a tactical officer and regimental executive officer in USMA's Brigade Tactical Department.

He has attended Air Assault School, Field Artillery Officer Basic Course, Armor Captains Career Course and the Combined Armed Service Staff School.

Following the 2007 season, Bagley served in Iraq for a six-month deployment. He returned in time to resume his duties at West Point for the 2008 football campaign.

Bagley and his wife, Susan, reside at West Point with their three children: sons, William and Andrew, and daughter, Anne.
