It is controversially alleged that Dwight D. Eisenhower played semi-pro Baseball before attending West Point. The reason there is controversy is that he played on the football team at West Point, and collegiate athletes of the time were prohibited from receiving payment for anything related to athletics, including coaching. Although Eisenhower graduated West Point before the formal implementation of the strict honor code, the spirit of it already existed, and it is thought it might have been a code violation for Eisenhower to play amateur football at West Point after having been paid to play baseball.
