Something is going on, what I'm not sure. I wish they would lift the curtain of secrecy.

The program is also totally mum on her possible return date.
The only reason I mention this is because it is fairly common for coaches to say something to this effect: "She's out for a while, can't say why. But we hope she will be back in action by early December." Or something like that.
By saying nothing Coach is clearly indicating he doesn't want to talk about it.
Fortunately he works in a high respect environment - even donors don't hassle him.
The fans respect his wishes. So does the media - even the bottom feeders.
But, in all fairness, asking why one of the most anticipated recruits in OSU WBB history is not playing does, on the face of it, seem like a pretty reasonable question.
GO BEAVS !!

First of all, I was not speculating.
Secondly, it is common practice for coaches to mention that a player is dealing with "personal issues" and that privacy is requested.
I did not say what Coach should do. Nor did a say what he shouldn't do.
I said, assuming you can read, asking why a star recruit is not playing seems like a reasonable question.
And it is.
GO BEAVS !!

For those of you who could not go to any of the games, here is some video of the warm-ups where you can see Andrea participating. |

I would guess they may be redshirting her. Let her get established in school, grow into her body a little and develop a real foundation of strength and conditioning for the demanding college basketball season. Next season after Jo graduates she can jump right in with a full year of OSU basketball culture under her belt. But that's just a WAG. |

But if they were planning on redshirting her then why not just say that. It's not physical, so it's either academics or legal issues. And since some people get real crazy about the whole immigration thing it seems like she may be having student visa issues and they don't want to mention that so the nutsies won't start hating on her.

It's something in that realm... academics in multiple HS's and course work... HS accreditation/transcripts issues... NCAA clearinghouse crap due to the above. |

It's something in that realm... academics in multiple HS's and course work... HS accreditation/transcripts issues... NCAA clearinghouse crap due to the above. Indications are that she was not practicing early: There were several pictures of PM on the court but NO pictures of Aquino. If it was an eligibility issue, there would be no reason to hold her out in the early practices and then to let her participate, so it's some physical issue that has improved with time. I'm encouraged that she is participating in warmups. That probably means they don't intend to redshirt her and maybe that they're keeping her ready to play as soon as she feels up to it. |

Hopefully it is something as simple as Mono or just getting worn out and being careful/preventative. |

Andrea’s situation is private, and needs to stay that way - out of respect for her - until there is definitive information. It has nothing to do with her skills or her character, or any remotely sinister issue. I believe that the program is handling this the way that they should, putting Andrea and her welfare first. |

Totally agree with beavadelic's post above. I am encouraged that Andrea is able to go through warmups with the squad prior to games and appears to be enjoying her experience, regardless of whether she plays this season. I know that Andrea and Trish Morris are good friends and lived together in California during their senior year of high school. It was heartwarming to see Andrea so excited for Trish during the Arkansas-Pine Bluff game after Trish scored her first collegiate points. |
