To be precise, Coach Ivey stated that the two players that sat today are, “health related that she can’t disclose.” :confused:

Ivey specifically reference quarantine and clearance from doctors therefore this is likely COVID.
“With quarantine, with the time of their surgery, it just depends on their strength level and their clearance from doctors,” Ivey said. “Hopefully they will be back in the next couple of weeks.”

Thanks God ND loses today.
Otherwise Ivey would say ND should be #1 in the country and both NCAA and ESPN will agree with her.

Yes, so as many have pointed out, ND continues to be governed by another set of rules from everyone else.
 
I would think with all the Covid Protocols in place, it would be difficult to cover Covid up. ND might have had an advantage if they could have postponed the games instead of playing them.

Gilbert and Abdur-Rahim are health situations that Ivey said she “can't disclose.”
==> If Ivey disclose the reason than NCAA will not allow ND to play due to health issue.

My guess is the athletes coming back from injuries just need to quarantine before re-entering the more secure ND team protocol, or something along those lines.

If they have two players that are COVID related how in the heck did they get to play. UConn had to sit out for 14 days and NONE of the players or coaches were COVID related.

Don't know for sure, but I'm guessing that their university and conference protocols (interpretations) perhaps are vastly different than UConn's protocols, allowing them to play in spite of players quarantining.

It would interesting to get the complete story here. The coaches have no say in whether a player plays or not when they have contracted the COVID-19 virus. School/team doctors have the first and last word on all COVID related matters/issues. As other posters have already commented here, once a team member tests positive, the entire team has to quarantine during the 14 day incubation period to insure no one else is infected and or is carrying the virus.

I would imagine that if one or more players tested positive at any time leading up to this week, the team would have had to quarantine for 14 days. UConn having to sit out for 14 days was bad luck and bad timing. If it had to happen, it would have been better if the incident had happened at the beginning of the month. They would be playing tomorrow.

My question is IF........ a UConn player tests positive, will the rest of the team be allowed to play while that player quarantines alone, or do we do the "mass quarantine" thing again? :eek: No team in WCBB can afford to do one or more 14 day quarantines once league play begins. It would be very difficult to make those games up , especially if the quarantine is late in the season. They would have to forfeit those games, and fall like a rock in the conference standings. Inquiring minds want to know.

The ACC Covid protocol only requires that players who test positive be isolated for 10 days. It does not require that other team members or coaches who may have been in contact with the infected player also be quarantined. That was the case when Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence tested positive a few weeks back, forcing him to miss 2 games, while the rest of the team, who had not tested positive, suited up and played.

Clearly, the ACC protocols are much different than UConn’s protocol, an inconsistency that Geno discussed in his press conference following UConn’s positive test.

Football and basketball protocols are vastly different. The Conferences not the NCAA set the protocols for football, while the NCAA sets the protocols for basketball, not the Conferences.

The NCAA set ZERO official protocols for basketball, they simply gave guidelines and recommendations, the official protocols are up to the individual schools. This makes the individual schools liable and allows the money grubbing NCAA to cover their butts against future lawsuits.

"Why are the Basketball Guidelines considered recommendations and not requirements?

When the Board of Governors elected to mandate the considerations described in the Developing Standards document, there was considerable uncertainty in this country regarding both unprecedented infection rates and accessibility to testing. Further, there were concerns related to student-athletes who did not wish to compete because of COVID-related health issues. In this setting, the Board believed that a mandate would expedite and facilitate membership’s identification and establishment of a reasonable and consistent baseline standard related to in-season safety and student-athlete protection regarding scholarships and eligibility. We now have a better projection regarding testing availability and options and have obtained more information regarding sport and societal resocialization. In this fluid environment, the Board agreed that the Basketball Guidelines should serve as a guidance resource, especially as we continue to assess emerging science and infrastructure."

I think it is a Big East Protocol which seemed to match the "suggested" language of the NCAA
 
It should be the same standard for all teams. Let's say because of ND not quarantining the players that had been in contact with the infected player (s), then gives it someone on an opposing team, does that team have the right to sue ND because they didn't follow guidelines that were set by the CDC and were recommended by the NCAA.

I probably disagree with the “many” then. I dislike ND more than most. It is 2020 and given the state that we are in I support any decision that allows these young ladies to play basketball. I also don’t understand why seemingly intelligent people can’t comprehend that ND and UCONN are operating under two different COVID protocols and guidance. I live in PA and work in MD=two completely different set of guidelines. Harvard is not playing basketball, Boston College played New Hampshire on Wednesday.

Not quite sure their is a positive Covid incident for ND? The language is unclear but just came across an unbelievably blatant case on the Mens side. People should be fired
www.usatoday.com

Opinion: Gonzaga makes a bad call, playing despite positive COVID tests: 'I hope nobody gets infected'

Gonzaga had a player and staffer test positive for COVID-19, but that didn't stop team from putting Auburn and Kansas at risk by continuing to play.

So it's okay for ND to play, but everyone is livid about Gonzaga. Guess the power of the Golden Dome shields their player from maybe passing on to other teams, but the Zags don't have the Golden Dome so they get ridiculed for playing. My question is did ND inform Ohio before the game or did they keep their mouths shut.

Please leave the baseless bashing to the Orange Board, unless you can provide a link that there was a positive test among the ND WBB players.

Why hasn't ND stated who was quarantined and for what reason, besides saying it was a medical issue and can't be disclosed.
