I recall one a few years back that was so blatantly stupid--he had served in the military or something--and they reversed the decision after the backlash after it was all over Twitter.

Unfortunately for Yoeli, this was is complicated enough in what happened that people won't get up in arms. Yes, most people know it's stupid, but other than us BYU fans, no one is going to try to draw any attention to the stupidity.
