GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida cornerback Jalen Tabor and tight end Cyontai Lewis have rejoined the team after a weeklong suspension.Coach Jim McElwain suspended both players for fighting in practice, saying neither will play in No. 25 Floridas opener against UMass next week.McElwain said Thursday that both have resumed team activities and would return to practice later in the day.We talked about it as a family and our expectations, [and] off we go, McElwain said.While Tabor and Lewis have clarity in their situation, the status of three others is up in the air.Standout receiver Antonio Callaway hasnt been fully reinstated from his suspension after a sexual assault allegation.Were still working through some things, McElwain said regarding Callaway.Callaway was suspended in January for violating the universitys code of conduct and forced to take classes online. The accuser did not go to police. Instead she reported the incident to the universitys office of student affairs. Callaway was partially reinstated in June, allowed to return to campus and work out with teammates.A university hearing officer cleared Callaway of sexual assault on Aug. 12, saying Callaway was not responsible based on a preponderance of evidence. The accuser, her attorney and witnesses boycotted the hearing, saying the hearing officer was biased because of his financial contributions to the Gators. The accuser has until Friday to appeal, which could be the reason for the delay in determining Callaways status.Freshman receivers Tyrie Cleveland and Rick Wells are facing felony charges for allegedly firing BB guns into a residential hall last month. They are likely to get deferred prosecution as first-time offenders and serve community service, but their status for the opener remains uncertain.Cleveland and Wells have practiced with the Gators despite the felony charges, though both have been slowed recently by hamstring injuries.Those two guys are obviously going through some things and dealing with some things, but theyll be back, McElwain said.On the injury front, McElwain revealed Thursday that receiver C.J. Worton has a dreaded high-ankle sprain. Considered a key part of the offense, Worton has missed two weeks and might not be ready by the opener. Cyrus Jones Super Bowl Jersey . Denis Coderre, the former federal MP who was elected mayor on Nov. 3, has drawn the ire of some Montreal Canadiens. During last nights game he tweeted: "Hello? Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please. LaAdrian Waddle Super Bowl Jersey http://www.cheappatriotssuperbowljerseys.com/malcom-brown-super-bowl-jersey/ . Then the Pacers gave Oladipo and his Orlando teammates the cold shoulder. Paul Georges buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter spurred a 21-4 run, finally sending Indiana past the Magic 97-87 in a tougher-than-expected opening night matchup. Patriots Super Bowl Jerseys 2018 . Irving scored 23 points, Tristan Thompson had 20 points and 10 rebounds and the Cavaliers beat the Denver Nuggets 117-109 on Friday night. Duron Harmon Super Bowl Jersey . The veteran safety was a starter for the Bengals from 2008-2012. He totaled 41 tackles and three interceptions while starting all but four of the 13 games he played last season. OXFORD, Miss. -- The safe move would have been to run the ball on third-and-a-foot inside their own territory. Up 17-10 in the third quarter, on the road, against No. 2-ranked Alabama, no one would have blamed Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly for handing the ball off and hoping for a new set of downs. But then Eddie Jackson started cheating down into the box from his safety position. Laquon Treadwell and Quincy Adeboyejo were lined up to Kellys left, the defense was showing man-coverage and there was suddenly no longer any help over the top. Kelly couldnt pass that up. Armed with the run-pass option, he chose the latter.But then the snap shot wildly over his head. Kelly tipped it high into the night sky. Like Willie Mays on the warning track, he turned away from the line of scrimmage completely, jumped and caught the ball over his shoulder. Before his feet could touch the ground, he spun back around and in one motion fired the ball to his left just as he was tackled. It looked like pure desperation, but it wasnt. Somehow he knew that Treadwell would be there.Adeboyejo, who hadnt moved from the line of scrimmage as he watched Kelly gather himself and throw, woke up and started sprinting, following the path of the ball. He didnt see its intended target until Treadwell and defensive backs Cyrus Jones and Minkah Fitzpatrick collided. Jones got a piece of the ball, it caromed off Fitzpatricks helmet and hung there as if suspended in mid-air. Adeboyejo barely broke his stride. He caught it underhanded like a loaf of bread and kept on running past the defense, which had slowed down thinking the play was over. Ole Miss scored and went on to beat Alabama for the second year in a row, 43-37. (Watch the play again here.)Like everyone else, Javon Patterson initially thought it was a busted play. Ole Miss freshman left guard had let the pass-rush reach Kelly and said, Thats on me, thats my job. And afterward? He called it a blessing from the Lord.Chads a very, uh, energetic guy, Patterson said, so he can make plays like that.Dan Werner, from his seat high up in the press box as offensive coordinator, watched his quarterback in disbelief. He thought, Well, hes going to fall on it and were not going to get the first down. ... What in the world is he doing? ... We might get lucky on this deal and if Laquon catches it we get the first down. ... Ah, this is going to get intercepted. Finally, he said, Quincy catches it and ... Im back happy again.Werner phoned down to Kelly on the sideline. He chuckled into the receiver. That one worked out, he told him, but dont ever do that again.Nearly a year later, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze agrees. He shouldnt have done that, he said on Monday, previewing Saturdays matchup of No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 19 Ole Miss in Oxford.And Kelly? Well, he sees things differently. Everyone he spoke to afterward, including friends and family, asked, Why throw it? His response: I mean, why not throw it, right?I was just trying to make some plays, he said. Thats part of who I am.Hows that for confidence? He doesnt like his nickname Swag Kelly, but boy does it fit. Its that bravado, that self-belief, that unflinching ability to hurl the ball downfield that allowed Ole Miss to beat the eventual national champs last year. And its the same ability he shares with his predecessor, Bo Wallace, who led a furious second-half comeback against Alabama the year before.While the rest of college football struggles to find an answer for Nick Sabans defense, Ole Miss has it figured out. Before Clemson coach Dabo Swinney famously coined the term B.Y.O.G. it was a pair of SEC quarterbacks who won with nothing but pure guts.Bo Wallace is coaching now. Two years removed from his playing days at Ole Miss, hes at home in Tennessee working as an assistant coach on his younger brothers high school football team.He watched only bits and pieces of last years Alabama-Ole Miss game, but he knows what it must have felt like for Kelly to win. Asked what he remembers most about beating the Tide in 2014, Wallace said, It was a heck of a party after the game.It wasnt his favorite win, but he knows its the one hes most known for. Its my signature win, he said.Alabama was ranked No. 3?at the time. Ole Miss was No. 11. It had been more than a decade since the Rebs had knocked off their SEC West rivals. When it was all saidd and done, the fans would rush the field, the goal posts would be carried out of the stadium and pop star Katy Perry would be seen in a few local bars soaking in the celebration.ddddddddddddWallace wasnt surprised by the outcome. He said he honestly thought their receivers were better than Alabamas defensive backs. Whereas most teams play it conservative against Sabans defense, their plan was to attack and try to move the ball downfield. Trailing 14-3 in the third quarter, Wallace stepped on the gas. First he found tight end Evan Engram down the middle for a big gain. Then he threw into tight coverage, a back-shoulder pass to Treadwell in the red zone that went for a touchdown.Alabamas DBs were too well coached to let anything get behind them, Wallace said. But then in the fourth quarter, Wallace looked off a safety, saw him bite toward the line of scrimmage and fired the ball over the top to Vince Sanders for the score. Werner said that most quarterbacks would have hit the check down, but not Wallace, who earned the nickname Dr. Bo for his often sporadic but never insecure style of play.Like Kelly, Wallace was a quarterback with a big arm and good legs. The two went to the same junior college, East Mississippi. And when Kelly was looking at Ole Miss as a recruit, it was Wallace who hosted him on his visit.More importantly, though, theyre both tough as nails.His competitive makeup is something you dont see in a lot of quarterbacks, Wallace said of Kelly.Dan Werner doesnt coach fear.Ole Miss veteran offensive coordinator doesnt even say the word interception in his quarterback meeting room. Instead, he talks about going through the progressions and taking the shot if its there.I dont want negative thoughts, he explained. Instead of telling them what I dont want them to do, I tell them what I do want to do.The end result is a confident quarterback.Since 2014, Ole Miss ranks seventh among Power 5 schools in completions of 20 or more yards. At the same time, the Rebs interception-per-attemmpt ratio is the 14th highest among Power 5 teams at 3.3 percent.The big thing is for a quarterback to feel like his coach is confident in him and trusts him, Wallace said, and if I make one mistake, let me go out and still sling it around.I think thats huge and something that Hugh is going to let Chad do. You saw it against Florida State.Its true. After Kelly fired off four first-half touchdown passes against the Seminoles, he went into a slump. He wound up with three picks. But Ole Miss kept passing and Kelly hit Van Jefferson for a 20-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter that made it a one-score game. The Rebs lost, but Kellys belief wasnt shaken.Its that same belief that gives Ole Miss a glimmer of hope against an Alabama team thats once again ranked No. 1 in the nation. The Tide defense, with pass-rushers like Tim Williams and Jonathan Allen, is downright menacing. But Kelly isnt scared. He and Wallace are two of only five quarterbacks to throw for three touchdowns and no interceptions against a Saban-coached Alabama defense. Why not do it again?Its a mindset, Kelly said of beating Alabama.Where many people watched Alabamas season-opening 52-6 win against USC and saw dominance on the part of the Tide, Kelly saw opportunity. USC was moving the ball downfield early and then slowed up, Kelly said. He wasnt sure why.They play a lot of man coverage and I feel confident in our wide receivers that they can beat man coverage, he said. Thats why theyre here. Thats their job.Theres that confidence again. Listening to Kelly and Wallace, its all so matter-of-fact. The mystique around Alabama disappears. Theyve beaten them twice, so they know theyre human.And, truth be told, that belief is what it takes.Werner said that dinking and dunking the ball against Alabama is playing right into their hands. Taking shots downfield is a must for Kelly. If theres a receiver in single coverage deep, Werner said, Throw it.Hes got the same attitude that most good quarterbacks have, Werner said of Kelly. Which is: Put the ball in my hands and let me make some plays. Its not like hes thinking: Man, these guys are really good and I cant do this and I cant do that. Hes trying to find the positive.
