Big loss for BYU.  Rumor is that he got his GF pregnant and that violated the honor code.  If every school had a code like that, we wouldn't have very many good college athletes.  ;)
[/quote]total BS. I have no respect for BYU now  >:(

it's a mormon college, scooter.  you go to their college, you play by their rules.  i played soccer at a baptist university.  i hated the school's rules, but i abided by them because i wanted to play collegiate soccer.
[/quote]i'd have to transfer  :D
[/quote]

no argument with that... just saying that you can't pick a religious university and then be upset when they enforce their rules on you.

Listened to a podcast by students at BYU. It was not they had trouble with the honor code, it is the school's enforcement. It seems there is selective enforcement of the code. Some kids get a wink and " don't do it again" and others get hammered, for the same offense.
[/quote]which makes me wonder why he was really kicked off the team.
[/quote]Maybe its "who " he got pregnant. 8)

Like, don't mess with the Dean's daughter, Dude :o

No one can really argue that the punishment was unfair, though. The university is owned and operated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and has a very clear honor code, which requires students to:

Be honest; live a chaste and virtuous life; obey the law and all campus policies; use clean language; respect others; abstain from alcoholic beverages, tobacco, tea, coffee and substance abuse; participate regularly in church services; observe the dress and grooming standards; and encourage others in their commitment to comply with the Honor Code.

Now, after reading the sTUDENT Honor Code, how can you not want to send your kid to BYU?

[/quote]Which means you abstained for the period of time you were there ???
[/quote]

of course not!  but, had i gotten a girl knocked up, I would've probably been kicked off the team, and there wouldn't be much i could've said about it.
