It's unclear how long the problem will prevent him from taking the floor, but his next chance to return comes Saturday versus Mississippi State. Noah Locke will likely rejoin the starting five in his place.

Checks back in Locke re-entered Saturday's game after briefly exiting in the first half with a head injury, Graham Hall of The Gainesville Sun reports.
Impact Locke appeared to have fallen on his head and momentarily went off to the sides to get checked out by the trainers before coming back into the game. The 6-3 junior has struggled to start out the game and will need to figure things out quickly before Kentucky builds up too big of a lead.

Exits with apparent head injury Locke left the floor in the first half of Saturday's game holding his head, Graham Hall of The Gainesville Sun reports.

Headed for bench Locke will move to the bench for Saturday's game against Kentuck, Jerry Tipton of the Lexington Herald-Ledger reports.
Impact Locke's outings have checked in across the board this season, but it's kind of surprising timing for Locke to move into a bench role after he posted double-digit points (11) on a season-high 30 minutes versus Alabama in the last game. It's likely a move to shake up the lineup after a rough loss.

Starting Saturday Appleby is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Kentucky, Jerry Tipton of the Lexington Herald-Ledger reports.
Impact Florida is starting three guards in Saturday's contest which landed Appleby his first start as a Gator. The 6-1 junior has averaged 8.9 points, 2.9 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 23.4 minutes per game. It's currently unclear if his inclusion in the starting unit is a tactical switch to better fit Kentucky's starters or if this is a permanent move going forward.
