Hey yall. Come August I am going down for The Citadel. I want to be a Marine Pilot and thats a good place to start so Im just looking for any tips or anything yall can give me so I can survive my knob year. Physically, Im 5'9 195 lbs, so that puts me over the weight limit by 10lbs but I should sweat that off pretty quick. I started on my Varsity OL for two years (went 9-4 this past year). Ran distance track this year. I wasnt any good by any means. My fastest times for the 1/4 mile was 63sec, 1/2 mile 2:52, 1 mile 6:46. Not competitive times but better than most ppl who didnt run track. As far as the CPFT is concerned, I can do about 60-65 pushups right now in 2 minutes, 55 situps and I am up to running 3.5 miles at one time. I am also going to the CSI camp down there in 2 weeks to get me in better shape. Academically, I graduated with honors and high GPA from high school. Just got done reading The Lords of Discipline, is the knob year as brutal as that was? I am really looking forward to going down there.
