Connor Mitch

Mitch (illness) missed Thursday's practice due to a case of pinkeye, Ben Breiner of The State reports. "He is very infectious so we did not allow him to come out today. Hopefully he'll be back in meetings Friday. It's very contagious so you can't be around anybody or everybody's going to get it and you've got a problem," said coach Will Muschamp on Thursday.

Interim coach Shawn Elliot was non-committal about Mitch's ability the rest of the season, Ben Breiner of The State reports. "I don't know where it might be. Any time you sit out for that length of time, first of all, physically, strength-wise, conditioning-wise, it takes a toll on you," said Elliott on Thursday.

Mitch (shoulder) will be available for Saturday's game against Vanderbilt but will not start, The Herald-Journal reports.

Mitch (shoulder) is likely out for the season, Sports Illustrated reports. "Too bad about Connor Mitch. I think he was diving for that ill-advised option play and separated his shoulder. Terrible thing that happened," said coach Steve Spurrier after Saturday's loss.
