  "account": "Offensive coordinator Cody Worley discussed the similarities between quarterbacks Bryson Daily and Cale Hellums, highlighting their patient development and improvements in understanding the Army football system. Daily struggled in his junior year, while Hellums followed a similar path, stepping in for injured starter Dewayne Coleman midway through the 2025 season. Hellums' perseverance paid off, as he gained over 23 carries per game, amassed 1,223 yards and 18 touchdowns, and threw for four scores and 694 yards. Worley emphasized Hellums' improved consistency in decision-making and fundamentals, resulting in his emergence as a leader and voice within the team. Hellums, a Division I football dreamer, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to lead the team and acknowledged the need for further improvement.",
