Davies dismissed for having sex 

Brandon Davies was kicked off the BYU team for having sex with his girlfriend.

According to the Salt Lake Tribune, the 6-foot-9 sophomore forward who was dismissed from the team on Tuesday night acknowledged his transgression to BYU officials on Monday.

BYU dismissed Davies a day later for violating the schools Honor Code which forbids students from having premarital sex. The Cougars lost their first game without Davies, falling to New Mexico 82-64 on Wednesday.

Davis was third on the team in scoring at 11.1 points per game and is the teams top rebounder.

The Cougars, led by National Player of the Year frontrunner Jimmer Fredette, were 27-2 with Davies in the lineup and had the inside track to a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

Davies has been suspended for the remainder of the season, but the newspaper said that his future at the school has yet to be determined.

BYU's code has been a long standing fixture.. in agreeing to go to that school.. he knew the terms of what he was getting into.

Personally.. I don't think I would sign up to attend BYU and live under such a code regulated by men. I have my convictions and they are between I and my maker.. not some board at a college.

That said.. Davies knew what he had agreed to.. and choose a different path.

Now it is time to answer for his life choices.. so be it.

Priests take an oath to not have sex too. I bet Formo and VR were alter boys, giving them their inferiority complexes.

From time to time I've wondered about the virtues of moving to Utah.

Then I hear stories like these, where prominent institutions in the state are so dominated by certain kinds of moralism (call them LDS or radical Christian or whatever), and I say....well, maybe not.

BYU can do what they wish -- that's what real diversity is about, the ability to choose different approaches. And, having chosen to abide by the BYU rules, Davies clearly shouldn't have a problem with the consequences of his behavior. (And by the press reports at least, he doesn't.)

But I can't imagine going to a school like that. At any age.

Lots of "Christian" schools require their faculty to sign similar kinds of "pledges" or "codes" or "oaths". Yet, notwithstanding my personal evangelical/fundamentalist bent, I can't imagine ever being willing to agree to to such as a condition of long-term employment.

I guess I'm too much of a Gospel guy, and not enough of a Law guy.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I'm more concerned how they found out and proved it. I assume he just admitted it but seriously, isn't that going a bit too far into someone's personal life? If they actually had an investigation.

Pack93z is spot on. He knew the code before joining the team. Can't fault anyone for giving him a suspension.

As far as the actual rule in relation to me? I'm not going to say I was perfect and wouldn't have broken it.. but if I were on a team of any sort, I would have done my damnedest to avoid the opposite sex. It's not like life ends at the age of 23. There's plenty of time in one's lifetime to have as much sex as they want.

DJ, maybe he admitted to it? Or his girlfriend mentioned something? I don't think they just picked Davies at random and probed his girl for any traces of semen/latex.

Nobody points a gun to your head and tells you to join the LDS faith. More power to them. I believe in religious freedom, and the LDS says no sex before marriage. If you believe in premarital sex, join another religion then. Davies, don't come crying to me because you'll get no sympathy.

Should've soaked.

Mormon Soaking 

Could they have come up with a less sexy term for it? Also, why not just say they soaked approximately 500 times in rapid succession that night? That would be my defense. Ok 50 times. Ok ok. 5.
