With Texas Tech leadership—headlined by Kirby Hocutt and Joey McGuire—working overtime and even issuing legal threats to get Sorsby under center, BYU fans and Jake Hatch revisit BYU’s unwavering tradition of upholding the honor code. Hatch draws on pivotal moments, from the Brandon Davies suspension derailing a Final Four-caliber basketball team to recent cases involving Jake Retzlaff, Parker Kingston and Harvey Unga, emphasizing that BYU has repeatedly chosen its standards over on-field or on-court success.

Shifting from controversy to optimism, the show dives deep into Brigham Young University’s golden era across all sports.
