HOOVER, Ala. -- Georgia's football team is getting a major piece of its defense back for fall camp.

Coach Kirby Smart announced Tuesday that top defensive tackle Trenton Thompson will be "full go" when the Bulldogs begin preseason camp in the coming weeks.

"He should be ready to go," Smart said. "He's doing everything now that we've asked, and he's gone and worked out really hard. His conditioning has been really good, his weight's been really good. I'm expecting him to be full go."

The 6-foot-4, 295-pound Thompson withdrew from Georgia for the spring semester after dealing with what the school called a "significant" medical issue that led to him being taken by police to an Athens hospital in February.
