A low Academic Progress Rate (APR) can result in scholarship restrictions, reduced practices and other penalties.

P.S.
Whining on Twitter is so millennial.

Cody Hoffman tweet

Must be a miscommunication somewhere

My guess is that he needs courses at BYU's main campus to finish.

RedSox

12/6/16 7:14am

yeah BYU would never bungle something like this

Cougarealist

12/5/16 6:26pm

I'm smh at this tweet, Cody

cougarnerd

12/5/16 6:22pm

You mean you don't think he's speaking the truth? And if you do think he's

Polecat

12/5/16 6:39pm

I feel for him and obviously want him to graduate, but calling out BYU on

cougarnerd

12/5/16 8:56pm

Agreed. He should try to get things done behind closed doors

donnerstag

12/5/16 9:00pm

And even when going public, a vague tweet with no reasons is still a bad idea

cougarnerd

12/5/16 9:07pm

Eh, it can be a very effective way to get things done actually

Dillinger

12/5/16 9:09pm

BYU doesn't bend without agitation

Cougarealist

12/5/16 9:43pm

And sometimes it solidifies a position.

MarylandFan

12/6/16 1:59am

Actually, it is the best way to get things done. He got Jackson Emery

UTE Golfer

12/6/16 10:26am

Do you know details?

gmycount

12/6/16 1:52pm

DO YOU KNOW WHY???? THEN HOWS IT ABSURD?

Shteve

12/6/16 1:54pm

BYU responds to outside pressure. Its a good tactic when others are exhausted.

OliverGranger

12/6/16 1:26pm

What the yewt is going on here? CB needs to take action.

Gerald-DeGroot

12/5/16 6:41pm

Raises the question why...

CoachSpeak

12/5/16 6:43pm

^^This^^ or he blew his grades the first time. But would he tweet if he's aware?

Albuq_Coug

12/5/16 6:47pm

Hello...could be grades?

SaintGeorgeYFan

12/5/16 6:50pm

Could be...

CoachSpeak

12/5/16 7:21pm

Does that mean BYU will take you back regardless of grades? Or does it mean Cody's grades are probably fine?

Brisco

12/5/16 10:19pm

He didn't get kicked out at any point did he?

CoachSpeak

12/6/16 12:12am

Not grades...

gmycount

12/6/16 2:00pm

you are special don't let anyone tell you otherwise

Cougz19

12/6/16 3:06pm

I appreciate that!

gmycount

12/6/16 7:06pm

Please tell me none of you are planning on tweeting anything at him...

Polecat

12/5/16 6:48pm

I think if you are going to "smh" the Y with a tweet, at least have the decency

Cougarfan777

12/5/16 6:50pm

That tweet will be viewed by BYU leadership and I'm sure they'll get it figured out for him. Even

ocmyhome

12/5/16 6:50pm

Probably is figured out

gwill

12/5/16 6:59pm

Shame if true. They let him play with whatever grades he had so they should let

RugbyBYU

12/5/16 7:07pm

5 years wasn't enough time?

Backcountry

12/5/16 7:09pm

Most NFL prospects drop out as soon as their eligibilty is up

donnerstag

12/5/16 8:49pm

Kalama, Damuni, and other coaches need to help him out...noble goal

gaspasscoug

12/5/16 7:10pm

And Tidwell

Turnpike Lane

12/5/16 7:17pm

Maybe he's getting the Jimmy Mac treatment

shakarocks

12/5/16 7:10pm

Hope they get this sorted ASAP

wilsdad

12/5/16 7:14pm

RE: Hope they get this sorted ASAP

gwill

12/5/16 8:58pm

Because a former player feels compelled to take to Twitter to complain

wilsdad

12/6/16 6:32am

Honest question: Does he not know enough people at BYU to help him sort this out

Bgash

12/5/16 7:19pm

I'm guessing he's exhausted those resources and is now on to the throw mud on

kotacoug

gwill

12/8/16 5:50am

How long we he at BYU? I can't believe he didn't graduate in that time.

SD-Y-FAN

12/5/16 7:46pm

five years.

ag4cougs

12/5/16 8:22pm

Wait...didn't he graduate? He had a red-shirt year also, if I remember right.

BYUHgrad

12/5/16 8:51pm

There's always BYU-Idaho

Metallicat

12/5/16 9:01pm

If I'm not mistaken he can only get his High School Diploma there...

SoutheastIdaCoug

12/5/16 10:07pm

...doesn't tell the whole story

nashty

12/5/16 9:40pm

Bring in the lawyers to set the record straight!

Polecat

12/5/16 9:45pm

Stupid socks...

Kuga

12/5/16 10:31pm

Like Esau, gave up his diploma for some socks and now he's complaining. (TIC!)

sah22

12/6/16 7:14am

Man, I hope Cody gets this figured out, wish him the very best for sure but

Pacino

12/5/16 11:09pm

Come back Cody... I'll do your coursework for you if you play another year

jomo

12/5/16 11:17pm

What does "smh" mean?

Bullrider

12/6/16 12:00am

Shaking my head

CougarAndMerlin

12/6/16 12:57am

That's messed up. They'll beg McMahon to finish and then reject Hoffman?

ColdFusion1989

12/6/16 12:19am

Only one brief side of the story.

Metallicat

12/6/16 1:37am

Maybe, but BYU does a poor job taking care of their own.

ColdFusion1989

12/6/16 10:03am

Wrong it is in the Athletic Department's best interest for athletes to graduate

Deadpool

12/6/16 11:59am

You have to graduate within 6 years to be counted towards the APR

donnerstag

12/6/16 12:22pm

If we look the other way once they're done playing....

Shteve

12/6/16 12:30pm

Yes it's in their best interest, but many, many athletes fall through the cracks

jomo

12/6/16 12:40pm

Your post is full of contradictions so I'll just agree to disagree.

Deadpool

12/6/16 3:24pm

Ah you're one of those guys for which the reality of life experience

jomo

12/6/16 7:56pm

I think if it's all he wanted to do, he would've done it before now...like

Wedgetail

12/6/16 7:32am

When I was deployed to Afghanistan in 2008, BYU would only allow me to defer my enrollment for 2 semesters.

SpiffCoug

12/6/16 7:51am

that is a ridiculous policy, shame on BYU for that

Cougarealist

12/6/16 8:02am

Cody you should have finished what you

BYUvermont

12/6/16 8:40am

That's messed up. They'll beg McMahon to finish and then reject Hoffman?

ColdFusion1989

12/6/16 10:00am

Do you know why they wont let him in?

Shteve

12/6/16 10:51am

Of course he has no clue. It's the CB thing to do....

bushy7

12/6/16 11:00am

They just want to see BYU do right by a guy who gave a lot to the school

Saxa

12/6/16 1:18pm

And I want Cody to come back and finish at BYU as well.

bushy7

12/6/16 1:44pm

Donald Trump is a millennial?

cougarnerd

12/6/16 1:50pm

Democrats.... Not millenials

ColdFusion1989

12/6/16 2:23pm

So no matter the reason for not letting him in, they just should?

Shteve

12/6/16 1:52pm

Gave a lot?

BYUvermont

12/7/16 10:04pm

You are comparing a wedding cake
