Florida's Harvin might need surgery

4/1/2008

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Florida wide receiver Percy Harvin will miss the rest of spring practice and might need surgery to repair a heel injury.

Gators coach Urban Meyer said that team doctors were consulting with specialists to determine how to treat Harvin's nagging right heel.

Even if Harvin does have surgery, Meyer said he will be back at full speed before fall practice in August.

Harvin ran for 764 yards and six touchdowns last season and caught 59 passes for 858 yards and four scores.
