Sneak peak: Gators' first two football practices will be open to the public

Wanna see what the 2009 Florida football team is going to look like in early fall practice? You've got two chances.

Florida athletic officials announced Thursday that only the Gators' first two practices - Thursday, Aug. 6 and Friday, Aug. 7 - will be open to the public. Both sessions will be held at the UF football practice field.

But if you want to see Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, you'll have to get up early.

There will be two sessions on Thursday. Returning players will practice from 6:10 a.m. until 8 a.m. Freshmen will practice later that day from 5:10 to 6:30 p.m.

On Friday, returning players will again practice from 6:10 a.m. until 8 a.m., and freshmen will practice from 4:35 p.m. until 6 p.m.
