GAINESVILLE --
After three days of practices, the most memorable mental image of fall football camp at the University of Florida occurred Wednesday afternoon, when Percy Harvin (jersey No. 1), Jeffrey Demps (No. 2) and Chris Rainey (No. 3) limped side by side to the back of Florida's practice field. Harvin didn't practice for the second day in a row because of offseason heel surgery. Rainey pulled a groin muscle Tuesday and didn't practice Wednesday. Jeffrey Demps fell to the ground Wednesday with what appeared to be an injured left knee.
Coach Urban Meyer did not know the severity of Demps' injury, but Demps limped off the practice field with the help of an assistant trainer. At one point during Demps' walk back to the Gators' locker room inside Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (about 300 yards), a person stopped Demps, put his arms around him and appeared to whisper words of encouragement.
Demps' injury occurred on the last play of practice. As the rest of the team huddled, Demps remained on the ground. Trainers immediately converged. Demps, a high school track phenom from Orlando, nearly qualified for the Olympics this summer in the 100-meter sprint.
He ran the 100 meters in 10.01 seconds at the U.S. Olympic trials and is considered the fastest teenager in the nation. Some believe Demps could have pursued a career in professional track after his showing at the trials, but he chose to report to Florida for football.
