I don't even know who that is. How many honor code violations do you know
about from non student athletes? Probably close to none.
By the way, learn what an argument from incredulity is, and try not to use it in your arguments, it makes you seem uneducated.

Did Lavell "compromise his principals?

Absolutely...

Ridiculous. Just cause you don't stop someone from doing something doesn't mean

Actually per the honor code, it is your job

All hail the honor code. I hate narcs.
kingpin2k
10/2/14 8:32am
point is, you said it wasn't his job. then stoils points out that it IS.
Fightgar

False. His job is to coach the team, that's his title, not babysitter.

He adopted a "Just don't get caught" strategy with McMahon that didn't work then

It doesn't compromise your principles when other people do things...

I agree,but there's a lot of little savior/enforcer types w the mentality that

Seriously... Stoils above just told me it was my job to narc.

it says that it is in the honor code! why are you getting on stoils?

His holier than thow judgmental attitude. That's why.

despite popular belief by you, BYU fans can be logical as well
kingpin2k
10/2/14 12:54pm
It is actually not logic when you argue against facts
stoils

Fact, LE was not their babysitter. Fact, he had better things to do.

I hope you aren't related to any police officers or teachers or parents

Totally outdated logic in this age of social media. BYU would have to dump the

Times have changed but I think BYU hides behind the HC.

Mostly it seems like today it is a crutch, but wasn't back in the day.
Cougar TD
10/1/14 6:09pm
You keep using these buzz phrases but I'm still not sure I know what it means
darkcoug
10/1/14 6:19pm
probably better stated is it is a crutch in remaining relevant
kingpin2k
10/1/14 8:59pm
pretty sure that is what I said
Cougar TD
10/1/14 9:07pm
I was agreeing with you...

how is it a crutch?
Fightgar

Why can't the Jazz just get another Stockton and Malone?
cougarnerd
10/1/14 5:57pm
not my point. BYU seems to be in a completely different HC world nowadays.

I don't want players who "didn't always follow" the honor code.
Fightgar
10/1/14 6:01pm
but those "normal students" aren't under the same kind of scrutiny as athletes
Cougar TD
10/1/14 6:10pm
what does that mean? living how you say you'll live is just that.
Fightgar

completely twisting words and missing the point.

how in the heck did i twist words?

The university makes example of high profile students, it's a double standard.

What an absolutely ridiculous statement. Lay off the Gordon Monson articles.

There's only one Jim McMahon.

Chicago Bears need one of those too.

Seriously, the Bears haven't had a good QB since Jimmy Mac. Cutler is just ok.
