The quoted info below comes directly out of a 1988 book by Lee Benson titled "And They Came To Pass". A year or so ago I searched and couldn't find this book in print anymore for me to refer people to so I wanted to provide some of the details surrounding the great Jim McMahon in regards to his time (not on the field) at BYU in a post. Hopefully with citation this is not considered a violation of copyright as I can't link people to this or recommend they go and buy it at an available source.... Some of it is in line with how some describe it but it also provides clarity that Jim was not actually kicked out of BYU but he was suspicious that they would so he left on his own.
My opinion - before we get started - he may have been right - but without actually following up with the standards office he didn't know for sure and it wasn't likely this was the only call the standards office made to him through out his time and none of the others resulted in him being kicked out or even being put on probation as far as I know.

Their pilferage has left many shelves and some walls of the McMahon home bare.
“We take what we want,” says Cappas.
“And what we can carry at any one time,” adds Tsoros.
On one of the rare mornings McMahon was up before noon, he encountered Cappas and Tsoros as they were ogling about a dozen framed magazine covers on a wall in the home’s library.
“What are you thinking of taking now?” McMahon asked.
“That one there would be good,” said Cappas.
He was pointing to the cover of Philly Sport magazine, shortly after McMahon was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles in 1990. “The Quarterback From Hell,” the headline reads.
“Some greeting, huh?” McMahon said. “But by then I was used to it.”
The devilish image perhaps will always dog McMahon, and to be sure there remains a bit of the devil in him even as he now, at 42, settles into what h
