Coaches deserve a much higher level of scrutiny. They're getting paid

Problem is, those vocalizing their scrutiny have no clue what it takes to run

RebelScum

That isn't a problem at all. Fans aren't paid to know how to run a program.

Oh brother. The coaches had no control over the stuff going on with Jake.

The HC as it's now implemented is insulting to students and Mormons in general.

The Honor Code Office is the creepiest, most bizarre, Gestapo-like nonsense.
