“Fraternity” buddy? At BYU? I’d take that whole story with a big bag of rock salt if I were you.

From what I understand, the guy who's telling that story is Michael Moody. Apparently, Moody and Romney were not both members of something called the "Cougar Club" at BYU. I have no idea whether this "Cougar Club" can be (or could have been) classified as a "fraternity."

The Cougar Club is just the athletic booster club for BYU alumni. IOW you send money and get some priority for buying tickets to games, invites to pre/post game parties with other alumni who sent money, etc. Most members wouldn’t even have met each other. BYU is a huge school and the club as 4000 current members (and anybody who sends in a $100 annual donation is a member for that year).
