Mises Playmaker

Tough to take on all of those challenges while also dealing with the stress of classes AND a full basketball schedule, not to mention the insatiable scrutiny of fans (esp. UU and USU fans) that love to hate the guy.

Good for him and I hope all goes well, but he didn't really clarify anything.

LiveCoug

12/11/17 9:13am

He didn't go into specifics, for sure. But I think the point of his post was to

benny1982

12/11/17 9:16am

I agree. The gossip is incredibly unhelpful and people should stop.

LiveCoug

12/11/17 9:17am

He did say that the honor code investigation cleared him of any wrong-doing.

cucciolo25

To ask Cougarboard to stop gossiping would be next to impossible. I agree

stevebyu8

And maybe to make it clear he wants to be back at BYU.

RaggaeCoug

12/11/17 9:25am

He can't. I think he's committed to taking the high road.

Belboz

12/11/17 9:20am

I think he clarified a lot. His life got really difficult and stressful and he needed to find

This is my take also.

I don't think he owes anybody specific details

Cougz19

12/11/17 11:04am

Never said he did.

LiveCoug

12/11/17 11:09am

I completely agree, let him figure things out and come back better than ever.

Can you Diggs it?

12/11/17 1:25pm

he clarified the only thing that mattered, he's clear of wrong doing by the HC

icecougar

12/11/17 11:15am

Doesn’t need to. Let it be.

SlantRoute

12/11/17 12:09pm

that was a lot of words to essentially say nothing. i wish him the best though

nashty

12/11/17 9:14am

So he has a bright future should he pursue a law degree? 🙂

ByuMba90

12/11/17 9:16am

IMO, it's because he didn't want it to become another he-said, she-said that would just stoke the fires

Indy Coug

12/11/17 9:18am

He's got his head on straight more than most of us would.

Belboz

12/11/17 9:19am

i agree...so why write the letter at all? i thought his tweet was sufficient

nashty

12/11/17 9:19am

Maybe we should give him your phone number so he can tell you

covfefe

12/11/17 9:21am

I think there are a couple of points he's trying to make, it's just a question of whether you

Indy Coug

He did say he was cleared by the HC office, and that those accusations were

Crazy ex's amiright?

He also insinuates that the Honor Code Office serves a useful function

Same reason you write a novel about us going 14-0 every year. Everyone has their

12/11/17 9:23am

Honestly it's probably as much for him as it is for anyone else.

che flaco

12/11/17 9:34am

Probably cathartic for him, kind of like being negative in every single post you make is for you...

Refugee

12/11/17 11:28am

You're right.

Belboz

12/11/17 9:19am

He didn't give the juicy gossip details, but he did

Left Shark Coug

12/11/17 9:28am

Yep. Very boring read.

idacoug

12/11/17 10:02am

Sounds like he'd make a better lawyer than some around here.

Born2Fish

12/11/17 10:08am

Nothing? He confirmed he’s good with the HC and politely said to back off

SlantRoute

12/11/17 12:33pm

Amen

chazen

I bet what happened is that he did write a tell-all and was convinced to delete the story of what happened.

Post is word-for-word what I think in my head after returning from CB suspension

So, his message wasn't to point fingers but certainly to clarify a few things:

How does HC handle possible NCAA Rules Violations?

CosmoK

12/11/17 9:46am

There were all kinds of rumors about HC violations floating around, too.

benny1982

12/11/17 9:48am

Other than Monson, the worlds biggest Hypocrite, I didn't follow those.

CosmoK

12/11/17 9:52am

Yeah, I took it to mean that HC office invested him for HC violations, which

They wait for the investigation to be completed...

CougarThug

12/11/17 11:12am

I would think there are lot of NCAA rules violations that never would amount to

12/11/17 12:29pm

It really doesn’t tell us anything, so he would be correct if he wrote that.

pink22

It tells you plenty. Just not what nosy fans want to know.
