Re: Big Day Today

I find it amusing that of all the requirements of the Honor Code that this is the one people take issue with. Why aren't the tobacco or alcohol special interest groups protesting? I understand why razor companies support the Honor Code, but what about the beard trimmers? Why is it that if I told my ...

Re: Big Day Today

Winning cures everything. If we continue to improve and beat teams all over the country, maybe we won't care so much about being tied to an island of misfit toys like the Big 12. There is no doubt that I wanted the money and better late season home games, but maybe Tom still has a few rabbits in hi...

Re: Jerseys: Time for a change?

Most of my fan experience has been with the darker blue and not the royal blue. I like the royal blue on the field, but when it comes to me wearing the gear, I prefer the dark blue. I like that basically we have both. When a school goes with the modern wacky unis it just seems like a desperate cry f...

Jerseys: Time for a change?

Doug Robinson wrote an article in the Deseret News arguing that it is time for BYU to remake their jerseys and adopt the tons of alternate jerseys that some schools do. I wanted to see how other fans felt. In my opinion the football programs with tradition stick pretty close to their traditional je...

Re: Latest Expansion/End of Big12 Rumors

KingCoug and BroncoBot, I absolutely agree. I definitely went to BYU for the Honor Code. And the school is now so difficult to get into that anyone getting in could probably get scholarships to their state school of choice. If you don't like the Honor Code, go to one of them. I don't say that to be ...

Re: Right decision - Wrong Call?

I liked the call to go for 2. I hate to say it, but Utah had the better team, especially after we lost Williams, Nicua and McChesney. We were losing the battle at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Plus, I had had enough anxiety, and I wanted the game to be decided once and for all. I ...

Re: Team Captains Named

You guys don't come across very well in those posts. I'm sorry that poking a little fun at the coaching staff makes me look like a monster. Obviously these players have worked hard, are excellent leaders, and well deserving of their spots as captains. I've especially been a big supporter of Kai, ev...

Re: Did BYU sign an agreement last night?

I have to think that BYU gets in. I just don't see the Honor Code issue being bid enough to keep them from adding us. When we played at UT it wasn't like there were protesters. Same for when we played OU at Jerry's World. It may be a news story for a day or two and then it will go away and it will j...

Re: Honor Code adjustments after ABA complaint

It doesn't matter your religion, you can't smoke pot at BYU. The standards are the same, Mormon or not. I think those who wish to attend BYU and keep those standards who aren't LDS make the University stronger through the concept of diversity. Do you really think the environment at BYU is created s...
