ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Georgia star receiver A.J. Green is being held out of the Bulldogs' opening game against Louisiana-Lafayette.

Georgia spokesman Claude Felton says Green will miss Saturday's game for the No. 23 Bulldogs pending a ruling from the NCAA clarifying his status.

The NCAA is investigating Georgia amid allegations that players from several schools attended an agent-hosted party in Miami. There have been reports that Green, a junior rated as one of the nation's top receivers, is the target.
