RIO DE JANEIRO -- Indiana Pacers star Paul George has two missions at the Rio Olympics: Win his first gold medal and lift the spirits of fallen French gymnast Samir Ait Said.Between his 15- and 20-point performances in the Americans first two basketball victories in these Olympics, George was watching on television when Ait Said suffered a gruesome leg injury reminiscent of the compound fracture George suffered in Las Vegas on Aug. 1, 2014, in a Team USA scrimmage.Following Team USAs 44-point victory Monday night over Venezuela, George repeated his vow to build a friendship with the gymnast and to use himself as an example of an athlete who can make a full recovery from such a catastrophic fall.At some point ?Im going to go over there and have a chat with him, sit down with him, try to be an inspiration to him, George said. I know what its like going through it. Hopefully any words I can give is useful for him.Attempts to set up a meeting Monday had to be postponed because of Team USAs game-day schedule, but George has been talking for days about the painful sight of Ait Said breaking his left leg after an awkward landing after two backward flips.It would be an easy story to tell, George said of the message he plans to give Ait Said. I came back stronger and better for it. For his case, hopefully hes more athletic and its a story that, as well as mine, can inspire as well.Its all about encouragement, keeping his head into it. I know for him its tough, an Olympian, a gymnast, their window is just as small as ours. Hes probably been training his whole life for this opportunity. I will definitely be in his corner for him.?When Said was initially injured, George posted a consoling message on Twitter.George missed all but six games of the 2014-15 season in the wake of his injury before returning with a real flourish last season, earning his third career All-Star selection, averaging 23.1 points, 7.0 rebounds and 4.1 assists in leading the Pacers to the playoffs.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Die-hard Nebraska football fans who fill Memorial Stadium in Lincoln to capacity at every home game will soon be watching replays, ads and tunnel walks on new high-definition screens.The University of Nebraska Board of Regents unanimously approved a $6.25 million plan to replace the stadiums 10-year-old screens, the Lincoln Journal Star reported Friday.Funds to pay for replacing the screens will come entirely from athletic department revenues, not state tax dollars, NU president Hank Bounds said.Replacement parts for the current screens are no longer available, and each is at risk of failure, he said.Signs of failure have been appearing to fans this season, Bounds said. We believe our fans deserve and expect a high quality experience in this historic venue.The high-definnition screens will replace each of the existing screens in the stadium, including a giant, 117-foot by 33-foot screen towering over north end of the stadium, four smaller screens located in the corners of the stadium, and ribbon boards stretching across the east and west stadium decks.ddddddddddddounds said the video screens are an important asset to Husker Athletics marketing partner, IMG College, and are critical to supporting sponsor revenue.In fact, the video boards easily pay for themselves as a result of the licensing revenue generated by UNLs agreement with IMG College, he said.The athletic department estimates the new video boards will last 10 years.
