The Mountain West Conference has never created this much buzz.
The up-and-coming league is ranked fourth in the RPI behind the Big East, Big Ten and Big 12 and will feature two top-10 teams at its tournament in Las Vegas this week in BYU and San Diego State while showcasing Cougars scoring machine Jimmer Fredette and Aztecs super sophomore Kawhi Leonard.
The real rumble, though, is all about one player who won’t be on the court for a single minute.
Cougars center Brandon Davies became the talk of the sports world last week when he was suspended for violating BYU’s honor code by reportedly having sex with his girlfriend. BYU is owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and students vow to abide by its honor code, which prohibits premarital sex.
