Now, this is funny. And I’m hoping he’ll read them correctly.
 
Yellow journalism at its worst:

On its local news tonight, WFSB (Channel 3, Hartford) led its sports report about Paige Bueckers with this headline, "DEVASTATING INJURY". Then it was reported that there is no further news, and "we await results of an MRI".
 
I believe it took 2 days to know Raven Johnson injury, and unfortunately that was a torn acl. I expect tomorrow morning to be known.
 
Geno should just say before each game who is not available and leave it at that. We do not have a right to students' medical records.

I don't care....doesn't make it your right to know...does it? HIPPA isn't 26 years old.

It's HIPAA and it will be 26 years old next year. The full name of the law is the "Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996."

I am afraid that no statement will be made today since it is past business hours. Wish they would give an idea of a time frame to provide more info.

They could wait until the 9th to let the fans know anything, to be true. On that day, evidence will reveal facts even should they not want them to.....

But why would they put refuse in their entrance? Would that make it hard to get in and out? It just doesn’t seem like a good business practice to me.

That's purely private business, and none of my affairs. As for me, the sign says, "Exit Only"..........
 
Regarding HIPPA, and FERPA and any other rules and regulations covering the disclosure of medical records from student athletes, here are a couple of articles that should give anyone enough information to graduate from the Holiday Inn Express University and sound somewhat intelligent. Sounding intelligent is purely a personal decision and should only be disclosed with your written consent on the board.

If you understand HIPAA, there's no reason it should be a barrier to athletic communication, a source of headaches, or a cause to fear legal action.

Thank you. I meant to say is. My point is...it's no fans right to know. People confuse a courtesy with a right.

Does Paige "NIL - Buckets" Bueckers and her family want this "private medical information" withheld from the public?

She's a public sports figure, the reigning POY with millions of "followers", who suffered an in-game injury seen by perhaps millions....why act as if it's a delicate, "private" situation? We're not talking cancer or transitioning...it's a sports-related knee injury.

It wouldn't hurt Paige, the team, or the school, if information was made available.

For ex: "Paige will undergo an MRI on such and such day, and the results will be made available 12 (24, whatever) hours later. Until that time, there will be no further comment/information."

Why...because it is private and being concerned or having been witnessed to...doesn't change that. It certainly as SOME have said or alluded to doesn't "entitle" them to the information and doesn't make those who understand this limitation any less of a fan. Yes...everyone saw her grab her knee, but what caused that is protected medical information until the patient says that it isn't. I get the angst...curiosity or whatever one wants to call it. I just don't understand the...demand.

I wish her the best. But this is about something larger than sports....for me anyway. And that is the behavior and expectations of fans and how they see these athletes that they claim to respect. Respect their privacy if that's what they want. Pray. Wish them well. Bite your fingernails. And it matters not one bit what was disclosed regarding some other athlete.

And lastly...I'm not arguing whether disclosure would hurt because...I don't know. BUT...everyone can decide for themself if not disclosing it or not expediting...would cause them harm. My answer is no, I wouldn't be harmed and if I had concluded yes...I'd be more worried about myself than Paige.

You don't have to show them. You DO as a CONDITION OF EMPLOYMENT. So still...it's YOUR RIGHT to disclose or not. And they have the right to not have you work there. At question here is different. It's whether someone OTHER THAN YOU (UCONN) is restricted to disclosure without your consent. And that is YES.

So If I own a company and we self insure, and we want to control our medical insurance costs I can’t request medical records as a condition of employment? I want to make sure potential employees don’t have any underlying medical conditions that will drive up medical costs.

Huh? Unless Geno wants he and his team to be bombarded with Paige questions, false rumors everyday, it would be smart to issue a statement.

This is hard for both of you.

You do not have a right to know this girl’s medical status. When they want you to know, you will know. If Paige does not want to release specifics, spoilers, you won’t get them because it’s not remotely your business.

I used the same term as you, right? Condition OF employment. I could disagree to your terms and not disclose and go find work elsewhere. Now...if you're asking me for information post hire...that's not the same thing.

If she and her parents want it private then they have to be prepared to answer endless phone calls and texts asking for information. Better to allow a limited release.

Frankly, that would be insidious.
 
When we ask our government officials to disclose information we aren't nearly this demanding as taxpayers. I'm just saying.
