I should have put an option as the evolution of the college football game, in that the environment in which BYU did it's damage before has made it harder for them to do today.

I would also pick other, and say that players violating the honor code has been a huge problem -which isn't related to it being more closely enforced either. Any gang rape during any point in time of the existence of BYU (and pretty much any other school) would and should get you expelled. Other violations have also been a result of an athlete doing something that has always been prohibited. The honor code may be tougher now, but what many of the expelled players did would have got them kicked out before the honor code got stricter.
