I'm surprised BYU is able to get any recruits at all.

Some of those things are deal breakers. What if the player was matried
What’s up with the no beards?
President Wilkinson disliked the "hippie" culture of the 1960s, and he thought beards represented this culture. Students with beards were not allowed to register at BYU for the 1969 fall semester. There are exemptions for medical needs or religious reasons. This policy remains in place today.
It's for premarital only.Some of those things are deal breakers. What if the player was matried
Still a deal breaker, 18-19-20 year old kids are going to have sex...or be like Bill Clinton, I did not have sex w that woman lolIt's for premarital only.

It has always been that way, I remember when Danny Ainge played for BYU and they talked about the code etc.
I'm not being smart, but how is what BYU does hurt UK with recruits?This should not even be talked about or mentioned unless your trying to harm UK with recruits. BYU is not UK and the BBN could give a shit what BYU requires of recruits. At UK be prepared to get in the best shape of your life under Coach Pope.
I've never heard this until now, and now I can't ever unhear it. Omg.Hating on flavor savers
Still even the prospect of it drove away the vast majority of recruits I’m sure.HA! Signing the code and actually living the code are two different things.
If you don’t know the answer to that you’re really naive. Morgan, Pope, BYU, UK, none of facts matter when these media types lie and put out their fake news. What if I said, Recruits leaving UK because ……… just fill in the blank.I'm not being smart, but how is what BYU does hurt UK with recruits?
No recruit is going to buy that UK has that code, if they do, they are too naive to play here. Also it is easily debunked, most probably get...um how do I say this, get a date on their recruiting visitIf you don’t know the answer to that you’re really naive.

The New York Yankees have a no beards policy still todayWhat’s up with the no beards?
Also heard no caffeine.
The swimming part is so they can't get away.Did you hear KSR today where they mentioned that while on missions the Mormon kids could only play half court basketball, not full and couldn’t swim. Odd.
Maybe @gossie21 can weigh in since he went there but the few I’ve spoken with, about the no caffeine thing, said that’s false. They even said they sell coffee on campus. I discussed this with folks on YT in comment sections so not exactly scholarly sources but they didn’t have any reason to lie.Not even a Coke and a smile or a cup of joe out there.
Not for me by a long shot.
Coffee is a no. Not allowed and not sold on campus.Maybe @gossie21 can weigh in since he went there but the few I’ve spoken with, about the no caffeine thing, said that’s false.

Also no caffeine. Meaning no coffee, no cans of coke, no tea, etc.
Womb brooms are prohibited due to a revelation to Joseph Smith.Hating on flavor savers
They get a lot of 21 year old Mormon freshmen who turn into 25 year old seniors.Also no caffeine. Meaning no coffee, no cans of coke, no tea, etc.
It’s honestly quite impressive how well BYU has done in sports over the years given all these restrictions they’re bound by. How they still find so many athletes willing to sign on to that contract is beyond me.
I should have edited my post. After posting I did do some independent research and found exactly what you just stated. I appreciate your response nonetheless. I guess that fellow on YT was lying about either attending BYU or BYU allowing coffee and tea to be sold on campus but I’m not sure why he lie about either as there doesn’t seem to be anything to gain out of it but who knows (not that lying to gain something is ok- it’s not oh you get the point I digress).Coffee is a no. Not allowed and not sold on campus.
Caffeinated coke/soda/pop are fine. Those are sold on campus. And have never been an issue with the honor code.
If I may ask, what's the reasoning behind coffee (and presumably tea?) not being allowed, but other forms of caffeine being allowed? I'm genuinely intrigued.Coffee is a no. Not allowed and not sold on campus.

They literally benched athletes on the mens and womens teams some years ago because they were dating. They have people who follow around athletes.No recruit is going to buy that UK has that code, if they do, they are too naive to play here. Also it is easily debunked, most probably get...um how do I say this, get a date on their recruiting visit
That's the most important one (lol)What’s up with the no beards?
Speaking of Slick Willy, he's buddy buddy with Cal so they can hangout together in Fayetteville.Still a deal breaker, 18-19-20 year old kids are going to have sex...or be like Bill Clinton, I did not have sex w that woman lol
Pretty much the all American code up until the 1960's. Maybe not the beards part if you look at back in the day.
It's a religious/old world mindset thing. For example, for most of its existence Chick-fil-a wouldn't let their employees have facial hair either. They've only just recently seemed to have rolled back that, or at least that is the case at the Chick-fil-a I went to last month where I saw several employees on duty with facial hair.What’s up with the no beards?
They've had athletes kicked out of school for violating itHA! Signing the code and actually living the code are two different things.
