In response to LionFan
Dr. V is correct, of course, in citing the privacy rules as the primary reason why colleges are reluctant to disseminate information regarding player injuries and the like. However, I do not believe that the privacy rules prohibit college players, their teammates or their families from voluntarily speaking to whomever they wish including the press, radio and tv announcers, fans and others. Maybe I'm mistaken, but it seems as if Columbia basketball fans have less current information on Castlin's injury then has been available to Columbia fans regarding other injured players in the past. Also, I may be mistaken, but it seems as if Yale fans know more about Mason and Brunner's injuries than we know of Castlin and perhaps others.
