But that's not allowed at BYU....

Bro getting soaked.

 

[DesertClone1]

well this is certainly something.

1. if he did it, he's gone.
2. broke the honor code, he's gone.
3. it's false, and the accuser is all sorts of messed up.

but the comment from the cop.... YIKES

The cop’s comment may have been a lament, as opposed to an attempt to discourage.

Cause he’s kinda not wrong.

Very interesting that this is just a civil suit

After what happened to the Illinois basketball player I guess I'll wait for more details.

Even if this is found to be consensual, BYU will be pressed to follow their Honor Code

Brandon Davies was booted off the basketball team a few years back but they then brought him back the next year I think.

 

[CyCoug]

I think the chances he plays this year are pretty slim.

 

[RustShack]

Oh, that’s terrible.

Different parameters to find "guilt". Finding reasonable doubt, in Utah, for the starting QB at BYU might not be a difficult task.
Still..interesting indeed.

Possibly, but if the quote itself is accurate that's not something a cop should say in that situation regardless of their intent.

Agreed. Sounds like the last thing a police officer should be saying. Their job is to investigate the allegations 150%.

A DA seems to be the person who would tell a victim the case isn't strong.

REALLY bad look for Provo police if allegation true.

Welp, looks like BYU may have to back up the Brinks truck to go poach themselves a new QB.

Is the billionaire all in for fb or just basketball?

I will ask. Ryan Smith and I are pretty tight. He said “good to see you” when my wife won tickets to a Jazz game and we got participate in the “high five” tunnel before a game earlier this year.

Sounds like he’s pretty tight with your wife.

That's might thought as well. Let's not throw stones until we know what really happened. Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Unfortunately pressing civil charges for a money grab is more common than it should be.

Dang. That means she was just pretending when she didn’t know who he was. Down the rabbit hole we go…
