Tennessee quarterback Peyton Manning is out of the hospital in Knoxville and probably will be back at practice next Saturday in Miami.

Manning, hospitalized since Monday because of an infection in his right knee, dropped by drills Saturday but did not practice.

Penn State said it will investigate a report that a sports agent improperly purchased a suit for All-American running back Curtis Enis.

If there was a violation, Enis could be ineligible for the Jan. 1 Citrus Bowl against Florida and the 1998 season.

Joe Jurevicius, Penn State’s top receiver, will not play in the Citrus Bowl because of academic problems, school officials said.

Jurevicius did not accompany the 11th-ranked Nittany Lions on their trip to Florida. Jurevicius led the team with 39 catches for 817 yards. He was not declared academically ineligible, Coach Joe Paterno said.
