Pathetic Press Conference From Shafer

[PAcuse]

To be honest when I read your first post, this all I can think of. Yes, soccer mom, cream puff. Whatever you choose.

Also it's the law

Do you have an "enemies list" a la Nixon?

Only for those worthy of recognition...so you have nothing to worry about.

You don't get to pick and choose what you want exposed to the media and fans and it's ludicrous to even expect that.

You do realize that a lack of disclosure on specifics in regards to injuries could have to do with HIPAA regulations?

If Syracuse as a University makes their entire organization subject to HIPAA, then coaches cannot disclose specifics on injuries because it is a breach of confidentiality in regards to the player.

I'm not sure if Syracuse has done that, but if they have, then Shafer can't disclose specifics, regardless of what you feel you're entitled to as a fan.

It's weird that you hear about player injuries every hour on other teams, they must all be breaking HIPAA laws and I see it's made these programs get in a lot of trouble.

It's not that they are breaking HIPAA, it's that their institutions have not identified the entire university as being subject to HIPAA. Some do, some don't. Kansas St. is specifically mentioned in that article I linked as one that does. They give very generic information. I'm not sure if Syracuse has done that, but there are schools that definitely have.

Name calling, you wonder why I called you classless that's cute. Anyway enjoy your live, I'm sure you have kittens to punch or flowers to stop on!!!

Actually you started with the name calling by saying "classless" when I didn't call you a name. Nice try though. See you next Saturday.

False you told me and my children to join the swim team. Trust me I never want to see you lol.

Look, I'm as ticked about the time out as anyone, and SS nearly cost the Orange the game in that move alone. But to rip him a new one over that presser? Seriously?!! Until anyone here has ever been on the main stage at a press conference, let alone after a nail biter OT win as a football coach after losing your starting QB (for a second time in an early season with, oh by the way, a brand new boss who has your program under a microscope), it is not fair to criticize. Sweating to beat the band, adrenaline pumping, worried about his kids and people here are finding fault with his public persona?! This was not the RNC CNN debate, folks. To quote Buzz, well nevermind...

I do understand that laws, I understand what you're saying. But the argument wasn't really about what was disclosed or not disclosed, the argument was more about somebody complaining about being pissed that her child's injury was being disclosed and she wouldn't be happy about it. Even though the 18-23 year old player is a legal adult.

 

[CuseHulk]

I guess my question is what is he wrong about. All 3-0s aren't created equally. There are plenty of concerns with this team. Even in basketball when we were 25-0 there were concerns that came true not far after that.

If this team went undefeated and won the championship. You would prob find something to complain about.

3-0 is 3-0. You r what your record says you r.

 

[two3zone]

How's that in insult? It'd probably be in their best interest to get mom from being so worried.

You know what, you're right my mind was clouded and I've been wrong. I'll be a changed man. Thank you CuseHulk I applaud you for helping me see the light.

 

[cuseincincy]

If it pisses you off have your kids join the swim team.

We're a D1 football team in a P5 conference. If we're that sensitive answering questions about injuries then maybe we should move to DII.

This is big time football. Give me a break.

I have an 18 year odl so I know how we parents still think of them as "kids." But the blunt truth s that these college "kids" are adults. Students yes but they are adults and it is D1 football. Answer the questions coach.

You're the worst poster this board has ever had. You are what your posts say you are.

Carry on.

If you hear about injuries from every other team, they are breaking the law. Just can't do it. I really don't think every school does do that. Later in the week, they will tell us who is available. It isn't our right to know because we root for a team.

Scott Shaffer has yet to abuse the media the way JB does after almost every game. You've simply created yet another strawman that you can hide behind while you criticize this staff.

Do us a favor and take your negative BS elsewhere.

Sorry buddy I am not going anywhere. I have not created a strawman I am not letting a narrative that this 3-0 start was unexpected and should be the main point in the PC. JB can abuse the media if he chooses to do as he is a HOF and has earned that. SS has not earned ANY BENEFIT of the doubt.

You really think it is a fan's right to know what a college player's injuries are? And judging from the picture where Eric is outside the Dome, by himself, I would guess he is going to be just fine.

 

[creatorsgam]

Thanks for the tip to join the swim team. We are not ND, thank God and everything Holy. I played football up through D2, yeah sorry not P5 D1 big boys. During my years of playing not once did any of my coaches think about being specific about an injury. You are classless in the way you act on this board. You have no right to tell me to go join the swim team or my childern. My opinion is if a coach would issue a statement about my child's injury I would be pissed. Clearly I should have them join the swim team and I should be on it with them, correct?

Hope he doesn't watch the NHL, where injuries are apparently classified as one of two: upper body injury or lower body injury.

Bunch of p******. They should get off the ice and join the diving team.

 

[Pearl309]

Weve been handling injury reports like this for years.
Why is this confusing

JB hasn't earned the right to be rude simply because he has won basketball games. I believe that his actions at such events have led us to be investigated twice and punished twice. Never pick your fights with guys that buy their ink in 20 gallon vats.

In sports you can say "Player A has a bum knee and won't be playing for the rest of the year". You just can't go into specific medical details and that's exactly what the law says.

Do me a favor and like everyone who responds to me. It is a cute trick.

It's the way you come across. I'm posting my opinion on something. You have trouble forming a good reason for allowing injury reports to say whatever. So you just say the first "funny" thing that poops into your head.

So exactly what do you think the school should say with regards to eric?
