Crickets, at least to me, means nobody is doing it.

Lots of people are pointing out the CBB infraction, the plea deal, and Kyle's response, and are criticizing every step. Whether there are fewer per capita critics in the BYU fandom than the Ute fandom I have no idea, but I certainly wouldn't call it "crickets". I hear lots of voices.

jreid191

How many of us called this. As expected. His game suspension will be gone soon.

Somebody add "no smashed cop cars" to their core values:

cougfanblue

8/23/16 11:20am

Will there be an apostrophe in the word "cars"?

Carnac el Magnifico

8/23/16 11:21am

Yes, perfect.

cougfanblue

8/23/16 11:31am

Too strict. Following the lead of the "No DUIs" one, "Don't get CAUGHT smashing

Suspended from games until the first game

CORE values did not prohibit vandalizing property.

Class A misdemeanor charge that will be dismissed with pending no criminal charges next year?

Honestly it is sad that any institution acts this way and cares much more

Then we wonder why guys from the NFL and NBA have a hard time adjusting to life

Of course! I mean, the "kid" made a "mistake"! come on.

Desert Rat

8/23/16 11:23am

By "games" they mean 1 quarter of game 1, right? Or maybe 1 series?

8/23/16 11:25am

I'm fine with it. Let the kid play. There are a lot of

He was smashing a police vehicle

8/23/16 11:28am

Ok you are right, give him the death penalty.

thebruce

8/23/16 11:28am

Lol ok. Suspension now equals death...

8/23/16 11:30am

How about with situations like this coaches try to do what is best

thebruce

8/23/16 11:41am

I honestly don't really care if he is suspended

8/23/16 11:47am

Yeah, but that's not even against their core values.

jdub

8/23/16 11:29am

Even the ute fans think he'll be back by game 2. There's literally no shame up

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 11:26am

even, you mean 'especially'

"still suspended for [all August] games. To be reinstated in September."

I don't think it's a big deal.

Wasn't it just the first half?

P-Boy Squad

8/23/16 11:31am

Are they more focused on helping him or their team is the ?

8/23/16 11:30am

Assume it's to help him.

I agree. It just seems on the surface that they care more about football than

Part of his plea in abeyance is that he has to have mental health counseling.

Perhaps the biggest shock of all in this case

Coug Dude

Gunther already gave him a pass a la Hatfield

8/23/16 11:38am

When BYU bad news is posted, Utes are the first to respond. With this, crickets.

michacoug

8/23/16 11:38am

I am not wondering why, simply an observation.

michacoug

8/23/16 11:40am

Your definition of "crickets" must be very different from mine.

displacedute

8/23/16 11:42am

In terms of criticizing the decision it seems appropriate

BYU '80

8/23/16 11:51am

Crickets, at least to me, means nobody is doing it.

displacedute

8/23/16 11:52am

Curious as to what would happen to a high school player caught doing the same thing.

No touching

8/23/16 11:53am

Banned for a misdemeanor that will be expunged from his record in a year?

displacedute

8/23/16 11:57am

Well, technically, it'll only be expunged if he does certain things within a yr

Again, you have no idea the circumstances around this event

Medute

This is coming from the guy who thought Emery deserved >1 game

stoils

What you say is true

Medute

8/23/16 2:49pm

You're unable to draw a parallel?

stoils

8/23/16 2:53pm

I saw everything that happened with Emery

Medute

8/23/16 2:59pm

It's slightly arrogant to say you saw all actions before and after.
