  • Evans-Sykes

    So, anyone know what happened to him? I was listening on the radio and I really hope that he is okay.

    I talked to someone who was at the game and they said that he got his arm bent backwards...almost like a hyperextension. But from I've been told he broke his arm and could be done for the season.

      Farley said on the post game it is broken, and it's a bad break since he was twisting his arm as it happened. They were going to screw him up and put a plate in, and he wasn't sure if he was going to fly back with the team tonight.

        We just got back -- Araf did fly back with the team. I will tell you that it was the most grusome thing I've ever seen -- a human body is DEFINITELY not meant to bend the way his arm did.
        "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

            The play happened at the other side of the field so we did not get a good view of it but some of the Panther players were upset saying it was a dirty hit. Anyone know more about whether it was or not?

              Yes he's out for the remainder of the season.

                I was on the field and from the photos of the play it looked like Araf Evans-Sykes was held and tried to get his left arm around Indiana State's Wide Receiver Carl Berman. It looked like the arm had nowhere to go but straight back. I know Steve Gearhart was about 5-10 yards off from the play he may have had the best angle. I don't think it was a "dirty hit"
