Saturday saw the Florida Gators beat the Tennessee Volunteers for the 10th year in a row. The Vols had a 9-0 lead going into the fourth quarter when Gators head coach Will Muschamp decided to put highly touted true freshmen quarterback Treon Harris into the game. The Gators scored the game's final 10 points and won.

Reports have began to surface today however that QB Harris is in legal trouble. According to various sources around the Gators including a Tweet from David Jones, @DaveJonesUFbeat, Harris is being investigated for a legal matter. As we speak many sources are claiming that Harris has been suspended indefinitely from the team. After leading his team to victory over a hated rival on Saturday, it looks like Harris might be in a good bit of trouble on Monday.

No confirmed reports are out yet on what the legal matter is or if Will Muschamp knew about the investigation before Saturday's game. News will continue to break throughout the day. We will keep you posted. 

Update: 12:04 pm central time

The UFPD has reported now that Harris is being investigated for a sexual battery charge. This could be big. Other reports have said that there was a legal matter before the Tennessee game and an issue the night after the Tennessee game but those reports are unconfirmed. We will continue to keep you posted on all the latest developments here at Vavel. Once again Harris is suspended indefinitely as of right now for a legal investigation which seems to be for sexual battery. 

Update: 12:12 pm central time

The Univertisy of Florida released a statement that reads the incident happened early Sunday morning. It was a sexual assault. The UFPD are investigating and all parties are cooperating fully.
