Cheap shot foul on dunk temporarily paralyzes Indiana star

Both officials appear to signal INT right away.

Flagrant foul--a long suspension deserved.

Horrific.

Seeing it on video is bad enough, I hope I never, ever witness anything like that in person. Truly tragic.

I hope and pray he recovers.

The thing that caught my attention was the fact that the scoreboard said 2-0 and there was not even 2 minutes gone in the game...not even time to work up a sweat. Must of been some bad blood lingering from something.

Perhaps that could be upgraded?

Fouling from behind when a player is on the ground is one thing, a two-handed shove in the back of an airborne player is clearly non-basketball.

That's what I'm thinking.

Intentional foul at first, but if a stretcher is required, I'm chatting with my partner(s) about a change to flagrant.

By the way, why isn't the Peru player identified in the article?

No doubt! What else could we/they possibly be discussing as we wait for the medical assistance...

Right, but that really wasn't my point.

I believe the author either a) simply forget to mention that little detail, or b) intentionally kept his name out, "because he's a kid." At the risk of turning this thread into something else, we either have bad journalism, or an ethical question where I don't agree with the author's (or editor's) choice.

Many newspapers withhold names of minors if there could be a pending action. This student may or may not be in that category. I do not have a problem with it either way. If somebody wants to find out who it is, it is pretty simple to do. They did not censor his uniform number. Mole hill.
