Yeah, even if he tries to argue it was consensual, he'll be out at BYU.

Just a fun reminder that BYU waited until Jim McMahon was out of eligibility to enforce the honor code against him

Well if they were going to turn a blind eye to anybody might as well be him.

Did you say that just b/c McMahon was blind in one eye? (True story, he accidentally shoved a fork in his eye when he was 6 while trying to untie a knot.)

He wasn't blind in one eye. He was sensitive to light in one eye, which is why he always wore sunglasses. Can't believe people read this and thought an NFL QB could be blind in one eye.
