    No, I'm not that naive to think partying and sex isn't happening at BYU...I went to Notre Dame, which also had a "Code of Conduct" which we did not sign...there was plenty of partying, and while I was there, ND got rid of a running back for a sex violation of the code, and this guy was a favorite to win the Heisman Trophy the following year (ND won the national championship the next year without him)....

    My Point is this....why would a big shot high school athlete go to BYU when there are many other schools to choose from where partying and sex would not really be a problem if caught? Having sex at USC, Boise, Cal, Bama, Miami, etc would not get you thrown off the team if caught, so why even go to BYU? Heck, when Bill McCartney was coach at Colorado, his daughter had babies to two DIFFERENT football players coached by her dad....

    I feel badly for the guy because his mistake is frontpage news. That sucks.

    However, if you don't like BYU's honorcode, you should go someplace else. I wish this guy all the best, and my heart goes out to him. But I actually respect that BYU is not selling out and holding to its principles. I also really respect that his teammates don't be grudge him at all.

    He simply made a mistake. The kid grew up LDS, lived in Provo, Utah and attend Provo High school. Center of all the madness...

    Check out his google results. Yikes... http://www.google.com/search?q=brandon+daviesa

    How can you have your non-dairy pudding substitute if you don't eat your wok-braised tofu?
