BYU's Kennard Davis Jr., a key player on the top 10-ranked basketball team, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI) after a car crash in Provo, Utah, on Thursday. According to Provo police, Davis was treated for minor injuries and his vehicle was impounded. The incident occurred just days before the team is set to face No. 3 UConn in a highly anticipated matchup on Saturday. The other party involved in the crash reportedly did not sustain serious injuries. BYU has acknowledged the allegations and is investigating the situation. The school has declined to comment on whether Davis will join the team for Saturday's game. This incident raises concerns about Davis' future at the university, given its strict honor code. As the flagship institution of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, BYU mandates that students abstain from substances like alcohol, tobacco, and vaping. Violating the code can lead to severe penalties, including dismissal from the university. The consequences of a DUI charge, combined with the honor code, pose significant challenges for Davis as he navigates this difficult situation.
