Florida's Harvin has surgery

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Florida receiver Percy Harvin had heel surgery Monday and was expected to be ready for fall practice.

The surgery was performed by foot specialist Dr. Robert Anderson at the Orthocarolina Orthopedic Clinic in Charlotte, N.C.

The Gators hope the surgery will relieve years of pain in Harvin's right heel, which has bothered him off and on since his high school days in Virginia.

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