That's a load of crud. You think BYU HC office, coaches, and admin want to suspend players cause of earrings, long hair, or dress? You can argue dated policies all you want on that stuff, but I think it's laughable to even think that players are being suspended because of extra strict, outdate HC policies.
I feel BYU is getting better and better with how HC violations are handled, not worse. I don't think anyone applauds the fact that kids are being suspended. But, I respect it. What I don't respect is lowering standards or ignoring violations. I respect BYU and coaches for doing what's right.
