REPORT: BYU's Brandon Davies done for the year for an honor code violation

BYU's starting center Brandon Davies has been suspended for the rest of the season due to an Honor Code violation, the school said in a release it sent out.

"Due to a violation of the BYU Honor Code, Brandon Davies will not represent the university on the men’s basketball team throughout the remainder of the 2010-11 season," the release said.


This is a huge loss for the Cougars. Davies started 26 of BYU's 29 games, averaging 11.1 ppg and providing the Cougars with their only interior scoring threat.

Davies' suspension couldn't have come at a worse time, either. After knocking of San Diego State on the road on Saturday, BYU had the inside track for a No. 1 seed. Already without Chris Collinsworth, the Cougar's bench is now incredibly thin.

BYU's Honor Code is pretty intense. The standards are listed here. It forbids things such as coffee, cursing, and facial hair.
