Once again was MIA last game. No mention of why, even in post-game presser by CVS. Anyone know anything that they can share?

Why can’t someone ask the coach (or someone else behind the scenes) what is the reason she hasn’t been seen?

Even if it is “personal reasons,” seem like we could get some answer.

I agree 100 percent. How about a simple explanation. It would be different if Noga was on the bench in a non-uniform? She has a really competitive drive and we need this energy given the past 2 losses.

Not sure where to check, but is she still listed as enrolled in school? Hope so, and hope she's available soon.

It’s pretty stupid that no one knows where she is at or what her status is.
Sometimes player needs privacy and school gives that to the player.
I'm sure when information comes out, we'll understand, even if what was going on isn't usually kept private.

If it’s a situation where she is going through some personal things, okay. I kind of understand.

I hope she is okay personally, and is able to return to the team at some point.

Not true, the men side been asking questions about why Kiss isn't seeing any time on the court. The difference, he's been dressing out and on the bench. I hope is is healthy and will be back.

not sure why there is a belief that we as message board readers should be made aware of any issues student athletes are dealing with

There aren't many of us who go to the games, but those that do, care for the players. We don't want or need to know what the issues are, if any. How about - is she OK? and will she be back to the team this year? Simple questions that we had about the coach last year.

Yes and No. Just a simple explanation if Noga is still on the roster. I go to all the games and see Noga on the pregame video. I keep hoping to see her and I am disappointed when she is not on the bench. Every team has a steady 3-point shooter. It’s a tool we are missing. Don’t need personal details. Just tell us if Noga is out for the rest of the season.

I believe the personal info about why Noga isn't playing need not be released by Rutgers.
But agree with those saying information regarding if she's still on the team should be given and if she's expected to play in the future

Let us say shalom to this thread. Peter will be elsewhere and she will be here hopefully or elsewhere. No sense speculating or guessing. It does nothing for the fans or players. .

At the last game, an usher told me that she had to go back to Israel for some reason - military requirement, he thought. A women who sits in front of me though, said she had completed her service already. In other words, who knows?
I agree that it's useless to speculate. Just hope to see her again. If not, good luck to Noga with whatever she does.

Personal reasons is why she isn't available and the University might be respecting her wishes of privacy.
Can't say if it's because of where she's from, someone she cares about or any reason on earth or the heavens.
But to act like we should know is just plain wrong and if we ever need space for personal reasons I hope no one demands the right to know, our problems, because they feel entitled to

So, say personal reasons.

Exactly

Just say personal reasons, and most people will respect that.

Teams say that all of the time.

But to say nothing leads to speculation

Maybe she doesn’t like the coaching staff or teammates and she just quit.

Without announcing anything, it is too easy and natural to speculate.

The team obviously needs her, and I’m sure everyone hopes she is okay.

Have the press been told not to ask “where is Noga”, on camera, during the postgame presser? CVS mentioned she has only 7 or 8 healthy players.

A very reliable source(a players mom) said Noga is on "medical leave, she will be fine, and to pray for her." Came across it by accident on FB.

Thanks for the update!

So why can’t someone associated with the team say this?

Has entered the transfer portal per scarletknights.com.
Well that's a bummer and I'll just take it as a minus unless I find out transferring wasn't because of being unhappy at Rutgers .

Actually it says she left for personal reasons and intends to enter the portal. Splitting hairs I guess
