Gators Start Spring Drills Without Starting Quarterback and Star Receiver
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) – Florida will be without quarterback Treon Harris and dynamic receiver Antonio Callaway for spring practice.
Coach Jim McElwain said Tuesday that Harris and Callaway haven’t been with the team since January, but he stopped short of saying they are suspended. The Gators open practice Wednesday.
Harris completed 50 percent of his passes for 1,676 yards as a sophomore last season, with nine touchdowns and six interceptions. McElwain said there’s a chance Harris might switch positions when and if he returns.
Callaway caught for 35 passes for 678 yards and four touchdowns. He also threw a touchdown pass in the Citrus Bowl against Michigan. He was at his best on special teams, returning 28 punts for 435 yards and two scores.
McElwain said there was no timetable for their return.
