BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

[Just Gopher It!!]

Yeah, OP kind of buried the lead. Apparently he isn't facing criminal charges for the alleged assault which he claims was consensual but is getting suspended for 7 games for having pre-marital sex.......I get the whole religious school angle but wow that seems way over the top. Gotta think that honor code makes it much tougher to get non Mormons to transfer in.

His penalty is relatively minor compared to -

The Green Bay Packers running back you're referring to is Jamaal Williams. Before joining the Packers, Williams played at Brigham Young University (BYU). In 2015, he was suspended for violating the university’s Honor Code—specifically for having a girl in his dorm room, which is against BYU policy.

Williams has been very open about the situation, once stating:

“I had a girl in my room … Honestly it’s your responsibility for breaking the honor code, because they tell you the rules.”

He chose to stay at BYU for a year despite the suspension, returning in 2016 and becoming the school’s all-time leading rusher, which impressed NFL scouts from Green Bay .

So in short: it was Jamaal Williams, suspended in 2015 for having a female student in his dorm room.

My wife went there and I think what I bolded is correct. However, I think that once every two weeks or so they can have the opposite sex in their dorm rooms for a couple of hours on Sunday afternoons, with the door open. Glad I didn't go there.

I made this up, I have no info:

School and/or Church paid her off to make this go away? Not to keep the kid there, rather to get the story out of the news and make sure it never comes up again.

It's funny how this bothers some of you so much.

BYU has nothing to do with your life. Jake Ratzlaff has nothing to do with your life.

Go.....Gophers.
