The 1-5 football team might be a sack of trash, but BYU’s dance team and mascot Cosmo the Cougar fired on all cylinders last Saturday. The choreography set to Ayo & Teo’s “Rolex” was simply excellent. On a ranking of actions performed by mascots, “dancing well” is right behind “getting hurt.”...

What The Hell Is Going On With Markelle Fultz's Free Throws?
Have you ever found a caterpillar, fed and nurtured it in a jar, seen it through its cocoon phase, watched it emerge as a nice butterfly, and then released it into the wild with a happy little hop?
