CORAL GABLES, Fla. - Miami football coach Al Golden says his team is recovering from the shock of scandalous allegations hitting the program and sparking talk from the NCAA for "fundamental change" in college sports.

Most of the Hurricanes were practising Thursday. Quarterback Jacory Harris was not in pads, but serving instead as a student coach for the morning session. Harris was one of the players implicated in the Yahoo Sports story alleging illicit conduct by former booster Nevin Shapiro.

A school spokesman says Harris will be in pads for afternoon practice.

Another player alleged to have accepted benefits from Shapiro is JoJo Nicholas. He was not at practice because of a family matter.
