GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) Florida will allow troubled receivers Antonio Callaway, Tyrie Cleveland and Rick Wells to practice when fall camp opens Thursday.

Coach Jim McElwain says all three will be on the field despite their ongoing issues.

Callaway was suspended in January for violating the university's code of conduct policy. He was partially reinstated in June, and allowed to return to campus and work out with teammates. McElwain has repeatedly declined to disclose details about Callaway's suspension.
