GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP)-- Florida freshman wide receiver Andre Debose may need surgery to correct a hamstring problem that has bothered him since practice began.
Gators coach Urban Meyer said Saturday that Debose's hamstring injury was at first not thought to be serious because Debose was able to work out at practice, though he was limited.
"It's a real injury," Meyer said. "We were worried it was just a tight hamstring, a hamstring pull or a hamstring strain. It might be something more. We'll have more details on Monday."
Meyer said he believed Debose, whom the top-ranked Gators were hoping would be able to replace speedster Percy Harvin, initially hurt the hamstring during the florida state high school track meet in April.
Debose was a 5 star prospect ranked as the #2 WR in the nation in 2009.
Also, senior linebacker Dustin Doe has been allowed to rejoin the team. Meyer said Doe will serve some sort of suspension for his July arrest for driving with a suspended license.
