I do think that in general, athletes are expected to be legitimate students at BYU. Of course, the same pressures to help a student athlete (particularly a talented one) get through school despite minimal effort will also be at BYU.

Please name one partial qualifier ever at BYU other than Lake. And Utah takes

They may have more flexibility but you're acting like they use that flexibility

You have more flexibility to smoke pot in Colorado, but that does little good

I will correct you, you are totally wrong, the issue was with the HS

1 point of clarification, it was math, not history, link to old thread
