2010 Supplemental Draft

[warpaint]

I was wondering are we making any moves in this year Sup. Draft.

H. Unga the RB from BYU seems to be some what of a possibility. So is there any other players out there or we just dont have enough picks next year to attempt anything?

I am not sure. Haven't heard anything on any of the media outlets. But with this FO I would not expect it unless we get a guy

It's over, we didn't do anything, that's fine by me.

That was fast. Well I gues there wasn't to much out there.

I think the honor code violation was having sex with his girlfriend, who's also an athlete. At BYU this qualifies as a big no no.

On April 16, 2010, Unga voluntarily withdrew from BYU after violating BYU's honor code, as did his former fiance, Keilani Moeaki, whom he was dating.

don't blame the guy

^ agreed.. lmao.. ^

Out of all the reasons guys enter the supplemental draft, having sex with your girlfriend @ 19-22 years old is a very forgiveable offense.

Apparently BYU's policies lead students to do pretty crazy things:

Comment: This is one I've heard about but never confirmed, even as a
student at BYU. Here it is: BYU students go to Vegas for the weekend, get
married, have sex, then get their marriage annulled and return to school.
This supposedly avoids complications with BYU's Mormon standards and the
school's honor code, both of which require abstinence before marriage,
because the students were legally married. I've done a bit of searching
but I can only find anecdotal evidence that this occurs. (Things like, "My
brother is a Mormon bishop and he heard about this.")

I used to work at Bed Bath and Beyond and we were right across the road from Liberty University and did a lot of work with young couples registering for gifts.. trust me on the fact that there were many many many young marriages and quite a few failed before they got to the point of actual marriage or shortly thereafter (I know due to canceled registries, massive returns afterwards, etc). A lot of young people want to do the right thing and get married to excuse what they're doing on the side or want to.

The whole Vegas marriage thing seems silly unless they're being followed. Going to Vegas should give you enough distance to do your thing and then come back without anybody noticing. There were plenty of times where people from Liberty would post up outside of liquor stores when I was with VA ABC to see if their students were buying alcohol.

Those LDS's......how clever is that?

I went to BYU undergrad and follow their football program pretty closely. Unga's a good player who can have a nice career in the NFL as a #2 or #3 back. He'll need to get stronger (he's big, but not too muscular), and improve his blocking, but he's got great feet for a guy his size and is a solid receiver out of the backfield.

I'm mormon and heard the rumor about the Vegas marriage/annulment thing years ago, but its probably just an urban legend. If it did happen, those kids were moron mormons.
