Tyler Tidwell's Campus Life @ USNA

From ESPN Sports -

What is a typical week like for you?
"The academic week at a military academy is trying for everyone, especially varsity athletes. I usually get up around 6:30 and attend morning formation and inspection at 7:00. I go to classes all morning, have a half hour for lunch, then attend football meetings until it is time for afternoon classes. Following classes, I attend special-teams meetings and then go to practice and lifting. I usually get done with evening meal around 1900 [7 p.m.] and return to my room to study shortly thereafter. I usually complete all of my homework and military obligations in time to get to bed between midnight and 1:00 a.m. I get up the next morning and do it all again until Friday rolls around and it's time to go to the team hotel and get ready for the game."
