Harris relieved Jeff Driskel in last week’s 10-9 win against the Tennessee Volunteers when he led the Gators to two scoring drives in the fourth quarter to erase a 9-0 deficit against their SEC east foes.
Had Harris not been suspended and accused of this crime he very well may have been the starter against LSU, or in the very least been a part of a two-quarterback rotation with Driskel against the 4-2 Tigers of LSU who have lost two straight.
However, despite his clearance he will not play after missing a week of practice and meetings.

This should conclude the ongoing Harris saga for today with the complaint dropped, his suspension lifted and his playing status for Saturday determined all within a 2.5 hour period on Friday afternoon.
