Percy Harvin's prognosis may be better than expected
Florida WR/RB Percy Harvin is still listed as questionable for Saturday's SEC Championship game against Alabama, but he's more likely to play as of today, than he was on Sunday.
"Great news in the training room today, it's very positive,'' UF coach Urban Meyer said. "A lot of thumbs up, including from the player. A big thumbs up, a smile on his face. He's as competitve a human being as I've ever been around. He plays well in this game, he made that very clear to me a couple thousand times in the last two days. He's doing everything he can possibly do and our training staff is the best in college football, so it's all positive. The negative is, it's a sprained ankle and we know what sprained ankles mean''
Meyer said Harvin will remain in a boot this week and will not practice until at least later in the week, if at all.
"As of this point, I say he's questionable and I'll give you more as we go,'' Meyer said.
