Hey there, time traveller!

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Wisconsin says running back Gideon Ituka has feeling in his extremities after he was carted off the field on a backboard during Saturday’s loss at No. 2 Indiana.
The Big Ten Network reported during its telecast Ituka had been taken to a local hospital. Ituka later posted on social media that he was doing well and on the plane home with his teammates.
Ituka was injured with 8:35 left in the third quarter on a play that he took two big hits. The first came from defensive lineman Stephen Daley in the backfield and though the refs ruled him down for a 3-yard loss, Ituka managed to break out of Daley’s grasp and continued to fight for yards.
That’s when Indiana defensive linemen Daniel Ndukwe hit Ituka hard and drove him backward into the ground, Ituka’s head bouncing hard off the playing surface.
Trainers quickly rushed onto the field as Ituka gestured with his hands while he continued to lay on the field. Players from both teams took a knee and eventually, Ituka’s helmet was removed before he was placed on the backboard. As Ituka was lifted onto the cart, each Wisconsin player ran over to wish him well and Ituka gave a thumbs up as he was leaving the field.
