Like we need to know something kyla shes a great player, I believe in her game

I agree. Feel like team has sent out a memo to all media that they won't answer this. Otherwise I see no way this would not have been asked. If injury, we would be told HIPPA protected and can't comment like with Aijha last yr. If redshirting, sure we would be told. Kyla seems healthy and still supporting her teammates on social media. She moves well and looked fluid in pregame drills before Houston. I won't speculate more. Don't understand why no one will ask.

Whatever it is, it's internal. They aren't saying.

Despite whether they would say anything or not, I would put my money on trying to redshirt her unless injuries force her to play later in the season.

We could use her height. Hopefully it gets cleared up soon.

I bet Kyra Elzy is blocking her from playing!

Glad they made it safe. Gonna be a brutal next 36 hours up here in Ames.

How cold? Gearing up for real cold starting here Sun night

I think most of Texas will get the arctic storm. Freezing weather for two days. Luckily, no precipitation in the forecast. Too many people do NOT know how to drive in ice or snow.

Saturdays high is 7 with a low of -13 and Sunday high of 4 low of -16.
Today isn't terrible it's 14 degrees but we have another 4 inches of snow on the ground bringing the total to 12 this week

I'm so glad I'm in central Texas!

Wow! Glad I'll be watching from home! Stay warm!

Actually planning to be at Hilton all weekend. ISU wrestling tonight, Sunday. And BU vs ISU woman's game tomm. Luckily the wife and I live right by Hilton

Yes it is.

Iowa Bear, enjoy the weekend. Wife, Cyclone Son, and I were planning to drive down today from Madison. We have tickets to both Women's game and Men's game (v OSU) tomorrow. Alas, we're stranded at home due to the storm. We're hoping the weather is clear by morning and we can get on the road early, but reality is we've probably got 6 basketball tickets and a reservation at the Gateway which will go unused.

Stay safe!!! Several roads here are brutal! Especially 235 north and Hwys 80 and 30.
Sucks you and the son may not make it down for the weekend of fun.
My old man is a weather freak. Follows it religiously this time of the year. He said the roads should be much much much better tomm. Hopefully they're clear enough for you to make the trip! Safe travels to you

Excited to see danae fritz get a few minutes this game and knock down some shots against her former team.

HIPPA is an excuse. The coach is not bound by HIPPA because they are not a care provider. If the coach knows she can share without concerns about HIPPA. Know if the coach was told about the injury by the medical staff without permission from the player they medical team has violated HIPPA. I am tired of people claiming HIPPA when it is not covered by HIPPA.

Safe travels for everyone going out in the bitter weather. At least those of you living up north know how to drive intelligently on snow & ice. Too many people here in Texas are clueless.

Oftentimes people will err on the side of caution because they are unaware of the details & nuances of the laws & rules. We live in an overly litigious society and nobody wants to go through a legal nightmare.

We still have our fair share of idiot drivers. During the bad snow storm Jan of 2022 there was 213 cars in the ditch from one day between Ames and Des Moines on I-35. That's a whopping 27 mile stretch.

Wow!
Still, I would think you have a higher percentage of drivers who know to drive slower and not to slam on their brakes, for example.

I remember in the 1980s when south Texas was hit by a severe winter storm dropping 15 inches of snow on San Antonio. IIRC, there were over 1,000 accidents in an hour or so and they had to close all the highways. Most of the time when we get snow, it's less than an inch.

I think it's commendable they're not saying anything if that's what has been asked of them. Why does everyone think they should be able to know everything that's going on?

Because Kyla travelled with the team to Ames that means(unless the rules have changed)that she is eligible to play.Perhaps she is redshirting as speculated above.

Redshirting is only thing I can think of regarding Kyla. I guess it could also be grades but if that was case I would not think she could travel with the team.

Definitely practicing with team.

I am wondering this same thing.

I don't think everyone has a right to the information. I just hate it when people blame something, like HIPPA, instead of saying we respect her privacy concerning her injury. Blaming it on HIPPA when it is not leads to a false understanding of HIPPA and whose duty it is to protect one's private health information. Coach Nikki can't violate HIPPA because she does not work in healthcare.

Did CNC ever say anything about HIPAA concerning Kyla? If so, I missed it. I think using the term HIPAA is pretty common, not confined to misuse by coaches and it is used because people are familiar with the concept, whether or not it is the letter of the law is not relevant. Basically you are being told it is none of your business. But once again, has HIPAA been used in the case with Kyla or is it an internet strawman?

I have not seen it used. There has been silence.

There is a legitimate reason to simply ask the question. Get a answer. Then it's done.
This is kinda crazy

Could we have used her size for rebounding? Is a redshirt a good idea?

We could have used kyla
