Bryce Harper hates BYU, says many Mormons do

Bryce Harper is Mormon, but that does not mean he likes the most famous Mormon school in the country — BYU. In fact, Harper says he hates it.

During an interview with Chris Rose and Kevin Millar on MLB Network’s “Intentional Talk” last week, Harper was asked to correct the most inaccurate Mormon stereotype.

“Oh my gosh, you really put that out there? I mean, c’mon. That’s brutal. That everybody likes BYU that’s Mormon,” he told the hosts. “I hate BYU. There are a lot of Mormons that don’t like BYU.”

While many people may view this as Harper being negative and bashing BYU, he really gave us something informative.
