The habit gets a new name.
Jake Retzlaff’s return to BYU for his Pro Day raises questions about the university’s Honor Code and its application to athletes. The quarterback’s suspension was likely to be only seven games, but he transferred to Tulane instead. Now, he’s back at BYU, sparking controversy over whether he should be allowed to return. The university’s culture of forgiveness and self-improvement is being put to the test. The Honor Code is only for non-athletes, apparently.
