    Never had a problem in class or testing center.
    intramurals has long considered themselves one of the last bastions of honor code enforcement - the thin blue line that separates BYU from the anarchy of secular schools.

    Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

    • After watching furious monkey's highlight vid, it reminded me of one o the things I liked most about Riley's performance--pumpfakes. Since you cant see the recivers in the screen, i assume he was able to force S or LB to bite (seemed like receivers were more open for RN than Jake).

      I can't believe Im saying this, but I think I'd be fine with RN starting going forward.

      • So tonight on KSL sports they did a bit on Riley and the long hair he was sporting last week. They said that he got a haircut and they interviewed him and he publicly apologized for disrespecting the program and university with his long hair last Friday.

        I bet Bronco made him apologize.

          This kind of stuff drives me nuts. Even to the point that I think the "attitude" it exhibits is one of the problems with the team. I mean don't these kids have enough to worry about without worrying they may have been heard farting in public and bringing disgrace on the University.

            I saw that. Everyone knows my opinion so I'll spare everyone's feelings just this once.

              I guess I should try to excercise your self discipline.

                Classic post-mullett hairstyle: don't cut the back, just grow top, sides, and front longer. I had that exact style in my 20's at BYU. I never got crap for it.

                  • The hair issue is relevant. If he can't exercise enough good judgment about his hair, what kind of judgment will he use under duress in a game?

                      sounds like the kind of thing bronco would want to clear up before announcing a new starting qb...

                        No problem. Even I recognize I have pet peeves everyone knows about without my posting them, but I still do anyway.

                            • I had hair as long or longer than Riley's vs USU for much of my post mission BYU career. Never had a problem at the testing center. Not at intramurals either because I wore a headband to keep it under control. The only person who ever mentioned anything to me was a Bishop when I was reupping my endorsement for graduate school.
