Purdue Boilermakers center Isaac Haas had his unique elbow brace cleared by the NCAA on Friday, meaning he's eligible to play in the team's Sweet 16 matchup against Texas Tech, according to Myron Medcalf of ESPN.com.
Haas has been forced to wear a brace after fracturing his elbow against CSU-Fullerton in the first round of the men's Division I tournament. He hasn't necessarily been cleared to play by his coach just yet, however.
"He needs to show he can do basic things to play," Purdue head coach Matt Painter said in a text to ESPN.
