and sodomy.

I will never understand why a non-mormon would attend that school. Sure the mormon chicks are usually hot, but your own classmates will turn you in like kindergartners if you so much as have an impure thought. I really hope those fuckers go down in the 1st round.

Since they were in San Diego, my guess is he hooked up with one of the smokin' hot chics that prowls Montezuma Mesa.

Is he the black guy on the team?

[Wedgebuster]

Wyoming will want this guy, and we got some white wimmen to spare for the team. Mostly from Colorado.

Yes he sure is

That's the best recruiting pitch I've ever seen

Given Fisher's assessment of the team, I suspect that this may not have the affect everyone seems to expect. With this guy, they were apparently a run-and-gun type team, and one of the best around. The expectation is that they will go small without him, so one could expect more of the same. A big inside presence would be nice even with this attack, but many teams are going 3- and 4-guards on a routine basis, so this could enhance their already-existing game. From the article's description of him, it sounds like he was functioning as a point forward, something many offenses don't have. They can probably revert to the more traditional point guard and not miss a beat.

As for what he did that would cause this to happen at this late date, well, it could be anything. It could be one of those one-time red-flag deals as some of you have suggested. It could also be an on-going thing that is only coming to school attention now. The thing is that one could be suspended or dismissed from the team but be retained in school for any number of things. A violation of a school-wide honor code, though, usually means expulsion, so we should be on the lookout for that.

If he's the only minority on the team, though, they might want to be careful about having the proper documentation to support expulsion, though. Whether it's warranted or not, we could be looking at a lawsuit if the school's not careful.

i really can't fathom why a black person would go to BYU given Mormon thoughts on the entire race...

:shudder:

Brandon Davies was dismissed from BYU's basketball team after he admitted to having sexual relations with his girlfriend, the Salt Lake Tribune reported Wednesday.

BYU's honor code forbids students from having premarital sex and instructs them to "live a chaste and virtuous life."

wow.

i feel for the kid... that is all kinds of fucked up...

but why in the hell would you choose to go to BYU unless you were into the whole Mormon thing?

if i were a coach recruiting against BYU for some kids... I'd be emailing them this story as soon as i could.

New Mexico is running BYU right out of their own gym right now.

BTW, how the hell did they find out that he had sex? Did the teammate Davies roomed with tattle on him?

[TwinTownBisonFan]

BYU doesn't look like they even belong in the tournament tonight... granted it's one game and they just lost a key component of their team yesterday - doubtless they are distracted... but NM put a hurting on them earlier in the year with a full squad... if all it takes to beat BYU now is to go to the low post until they commit too many down low and then work it back outside... the first Big East team they play is going to HOUSE them.

From what I've heard/read about BYU it's like a kindergarten with all the tattling going on...

no shit... isn't the first time they've done this recently either...

a few years ago, star RB Harvey Unga was dating a girl on the basketball team... they were both kicked out for the same thing.

Ronnye Jenkins came to NAU after being kicked out for the same thing.

Fuck those guys. I hope they drop every game from here on out for this stupid decision. This is retarded.

Dismissing a college kid from a basketball team for having sex? This is INSANE.

When I used to see a girl from Liberty, her roommate was cool with me staying overnight. One night we were up talking late and a girl from the hall heard us and woke up the RA to notify her. Anyways, I was escorted off campus by security and my friend AND her roommate both got like 15 "reprimands" and a $50 fine (which I paid).
