Any idea if valid concern for an injury on the team? 247 poster hint.

Why would someone with factual knowledge be “hinting “? instead of telling

That’s what super secret “insiders” do.

essentially they are teasers, and not necessarily right? what good do they
do except increase media (us) attention and hits ** Edited by DGHOKIE at 7/14/2024, 5:02:47 PM

100% correct..
these type info posts is not hard to find the info yourself. Like I have said for years, few calls or texts can get you the same info. Never had any problems If I wanted to be..............

This particular poster seems to receive some inside info based on.....
past history. Guess we'll see if this post suggesting an injury is valid in the next few weeks.

At this time of year injuries are not kept secret. There is no NCAA seeding
at risk. I can recall no other injury in VT sports history that wasn’t disclosed. Maybe minimized a bit.

You're way off on here. Every single year there are injury rumors
during the summer that aren't reported until official practices start.

It might be a HIPPA thing just a matter of prvacy like any illness...
designed to protect against discrimination. eg AIDS. Somebody might not want to employ you if they found out you were disabled It doesn't really seem to apply here talking about sports injuries but it could. Also great information for people that bet on the game so they're caught up in either not reporting anything or reporting everything. Former is easier.

Injuries are protected medical info under HIPAA. Athletes have no
obligation to disclose their injuries to the public, as it's their private health info. Coaches don't disclose the injury without the athlete's consent. It takes time, multiple tests, multiple Drs, multiple specialists, to determine type of injury, rehab, how long will be out, etc, but eventually they do disclose the injury. ** Edited by carhokies at 7/16/2024, 12:16:14 AM

No they are not.

Except the 247 poster would probably defer to VT to provide the info ....
I know that when I used to go to wrestling practices and pick up info including injury info from the coaches, I would never unilaterally post that information.

Hopefully not someone over 6' tall
We have a shortage of experienced forwards and centers

Is someone hurt or just a concern that we only have 11 players?

Someone’s hurt, according to someone in the know on 247
hokie77 hokie77 OP
Only concerned because that poster usually has accurate intel on wbb.

Good thing season is 3+ months away.
hokie77 hokie77 OP
Depending if "rumor" is true, hope injury is not season-ending type.

Just watched a video of our Hokie ladies giving some attitude on IG and all
11 players were in it. Nobody looked to be injured to me.

I must have missed Baker, because I didn't see her.
