Quote :

"EVANS HAS MILD CONCUSSION: N.C. State quarterback Daniel Evans suffered a mild concussion during the final drive of the game, his father, Wolfpack radio analyst Johnny Evans, said. Evans said Daniel is “expected to be just fine” but noted that team physicians will monitor his son’s progress closely before allowing him to engage in contact. The redshirt freshman apparently suffered the blow about three plays before game’s end, when he was tackled hard on the sideline, Johnny Evans said. Evans said his son reported that he didn’t remember the last few plays of the game but that Pack offensive coordinator Marc Trestman told Daniel he still made the right calls."

i dunno what it is but the last sentence looks funny.

Excuses excuses

I looked at the video from the game and I don’t see any signs of a concussion. Although it is

very possible that he did get one. It is my opinion that the ball just sailed on him because

there was an open receiver coming across the field that Evans appeared to be throwing to.

Wake Forest should have had the interception at the beginning of the drive anyways.

I don’t blame Evans though, he played a great game and he is certainly the right guy for the job.

whoa i did not know he was a redshirt freshman, hmmm

10/15/2006 11:26:35 AM

thats quite a pathetic press release... basically it said "my son had a head injury and thats why he messed up...except that his coordinator said he did good... so how awesome are we...oh yeah but he doesn't remember it anyway...did i mention im his dad?"

10/15/2006 11:30:52 AM

where is johnny ever quoted using the word "son" ?

i see several "son" statements but they are all made by the article writer...

Did anybody hear any comments from Daniel Evans about the game? I can’t find any post game comments from Daniel Evans.

when he threw the interception, it didn't look like a characteristic Evans throw

that's probably the only play I've seen him be a bit shaky and indecisive. Granted, the whole drive was a bit off from the get go, but that play was much more prominent.

If he had a concussion, then it makes sense

If the pressure was too much, then it makes sense

either way, I don't care

10/15/2006 11:52:40 AM

agreed. He really did look out of place on that last play

10/15/2006 11:57:48 AM

hahaha i thought it was a joke.. it really does sound like a joke

10/15/2006 12:13:16 PM

On that last drive when he was running to the left and was tackled, it looked like he took a knee to the head by accident. After he was slow to get up, I wondered how effective he would be.

10/15/2006 3:00:58 PM

sounds like a load of shit to me

10/15/2006 3:02:12 PM

I don't care what caused the game ending interception...did you see the kid pick low snaps up off the ground and still make completions?
He is awesome, but still inexperienced. I didn't think that throw looked like him, however it also appeared to me that he got hit from behind while he was throwing.

I love that someone giving the actual account of what happened is automatically named an "excuse maker". Good grief. Give the kid a break

10/15/2006 10:09:51 PM

im sick of all this "daddy/son" talk... needs to end very soon... that hype is over

10/15/2006 10:57:28 PM

he was gettin hit pretty hard while throwing, i remember him gettin up slow after a few passes



and as far as concussions go, sometimes if they are BAD concussions u can feel them on the field

i've had a few on the field as a QB and the mild ones really arent that noticable and bad on teh field but after teh game is when u really feel them and find out. As far as on the field, u just take it as getting rattled and you think u can continue playing...its part of the game.

so he may have been injured but a mildy wouldnt have that much impact on his game.

the pick was forced from the behind tackle by the way.

10/15/2006 11:00:07 PM

every other snap was low.


WHAT THE FUCK is the deal with that.

10/15/2006 11:01:19 PM

not havun a true/startin center instead of a converted tackle

10/15/2006 11:04:33 PM

you would think a snap at proper height wouldnt be that hard though

10/15/2006 11:05:19 PM

yeah I bet you could add 4 completions to Evan's stats if he got every snap where he should while in the shotgun. I dont understand how Leroy can be so consistently bad at the shotgun snap. I feel like every one is below Evans' knees.

10/15/2006 11:07:52 PM

yea, i blame the loss on the center

a shitton of low snaps and there was that time where he forgot to snap it and the whole team got a false start

10/15/2006 11:17:18 PM

Never got over that concussion? Jay Davis never got blown out by unc.

11/18/2006 6:00:10 PM

I think I would have run into a wall Gus Frerotte style to get out of today's game. Hell, I might do it in a minute to forget about it.
