Message: [QUOTE="VAMike23, post: 2020368, member: 150"] To me, what I am describing is the norm for D1 programs I've followed. I went to Iowa State - there were plenty of instances where things would happen with players in the MBB and FB programs (I didn't follow WBB at the time) with respect to both injuries and off the court "issues." Particularly with basketball, the fan following was very strong. The AD and coaching staff were always communicating with the public. They didn't have to share everything and sometimes they would share very little, but they would at least address situations rather than leave a bunch of dead air hanging around. Other programs in the Big 8 / Big 12 seemed to behave similarly. And as far as I can tell, this is how other MBB and WBB programs work as well, in my experience watching sports coverage over time. Acknowledging that there is a situation is not the same as disclosing confidential info. Maybe PSU is an outlier due to their past experience. I don't know. [/QUOTE]
