It looks bad, Indy. Even you should be able to admit that.
The guy that received the assistance did not play at BYU or anywhere else. I guess one could argue that assisting the teamate had a favorable impression on Cala to play for BYU. What a round about way to get a recruit.

Mormons game the system in such strange ways (think back to the Olympics).

Thank goodness no cookies were offered.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

I'm having a hard time putting any blame here on the booster or coach, based on the available information. Seems like a NCAA over-reaction to me.
