HTV,
Actually, USMA has two programs that are currently available for athletes to pursue professional careers. The WCAP is a possiblilty for athletes who participate in an Olympic sport. Schyler Williamson (2005 Detroit Tiger draftee) played with the Oneona Tigers last summer. Each academy is different. I can't recall his name, but the Naval Academy had a 2003 graduate who was with the Blue Jay organization. It's not the easiest route to go, but it is now possible.
