WR Moore still missing from Gator practices

Carl Moore’s future with the Florida football team is somewhat in question after he missed a second consecutive day of practice Wednesday.
Offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Steve Addazio said Moore is dealing with some personal issues.
“He’s just taking care of some personal business right now,” Addazio said.
When asked if Moore would be returning this spring, Addazio said, “I’m just telling you what I know right now is he’s working on some personal business right now. That’s all, that’s all.”
Moore missed last season with an injured back and redshirted.
Addazio said Moore’s back is not an issue.
“It’s more personal than anything else,” Addazio said of Moore’s absence.
Moore was visibly upset after Saturday’s scrimmage. He saw playing time, but was not a factor in the passing game. He then missed practice Monday and again on Wednesday.
Even without Moore not currently in the mix, Addazio said he’s been pleased with UF’s receivers group.
“I think new wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni has done a great job really molding that unit with a lot of unit pride,” Addazio said. “You’re starting to see that right now, with that unit making progress. It’s like he had to reset his foundation and build it back up again. I think he’s done a great job with that.
“We’ve got a bunch of guys who are contributing.”
