The operative part of that quote is "for me". Everyone knows BYU is different in

terms of there being an honor code. I think the "same" argument put forth by Ute fans most often is that players can go to Utah and have just as good of an experience as they can at BYU, because Utah has RM's on their squad and guys preparing for missions, yada, yada, yada.

"Misguided"? Utah is just like BYU? In regards to environment?
