STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) - Oklahoma State receiver Michael Harrison was reinstated Friday and will be able to play Saturday night when the ninth-ranked Cowboys face Louisiana-Lafayette.

The school announced Tuesday that Harrison and starting safety Johnny Thomas would be held out of the season opener because of unresolved eligibility issues, but Harrison was cleared to play just three days later.

Harrison had 14 catches for 135 yards and three touchdowns last season.
