Game Thread: Utah @ BYU, Sat. 9/21 8:15pm MT, ESPN2

So, who get's Hadley's minutes?

My guess is Austen Jorgensen gets most of them, maybe some Tyler Beck.

Not sure who the best remaining ILB's BYU has. Anyone know?

I think it will be beck.

With unga, van noy, and fua, this should not be a huge loss as long as no one else gets hurt.

Frustrating though, and bad timing

If a regular non-athlete student had that Magnum PI mustache they would have been kicked out long ago.

Here on Jazzfanz we like to call that a "porn-stache".

Stinks that he's going to miss the game.

 

[YB85]

That's a great mustache. I will give credit where credit is due.

Apparently exceptions can be made, not sure if it's a doctors note or something like that about skin issues or shaving issues or something.

I believe they actually have to carry a beard card if they got permission.

I haven't seen many beards on campus, but I really don't spend much time there.

Colton.... you spend most of your life on campus. Care to enlighten us?

That is exactly correct. If you've got a medical issue such that you really need to have a beard, then you have to get a "beard card" which authorizes you to have a beard. Otherwise, no beards. So beards are not too common, but you do see them.

For what it's worth, that's one of the rules I would change if I were emperor of BYU. My understanding is that the rule was implemented back in the 60's or early 70's when having a beard was often a sign of rebellion, counter-culture, etc. But that's not at all the case in today's society.

And, for whatever reason, mustaches are just fine.

No-beard rule seems rather strange, tbh.

And that's why he is the founder of the University of Utah. He needed a place of higher learning where he could rock his beard without the disgusting porn stache.

Good thinking YB... everyone post a pic of your favorite person.

Coverage takes a hit and both Beck and Jorgensen don't take very good angles - which can be masked somewhat from the inside. Maybe Utah goes Murphy over the middle more than usual. Personally, I hope BYU goes with Pikula. He's playing out of position as an outside linebacker, and now they have the perfect reason to move him back. He'll probably start inside next year anyway - might as well go that route now and get him some reps.

Looks like it's for 5 games.

That's pretty definite if you ask me.
