Florida collective allegedly offered QB $13.75 million deal out of high school
Jaden Rashada, shown here on the sideline at a Florida-South Carolina game during a recruit visit to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in 2022, has sued Gators coach Billy Napier, a prominent booster and a former football staffer for allegedly reneging on promises made regarding a failed NIL deal.
“Sadly, unethical and illegal tactics like this are more and more commonplace in the Wild West that is today’s college football landscape,” the lawsuit states, via ESPN. “As the first scholar-athlete to take a stand against such egregious behavior by adults who should know better, Jaden seeks to hold Defendants accountable for their actions and to expose the unchecked abuse of power that they shamelessly wielded.
Rashada was a four-star recruit in the 2023 signing class out of Pittsburg, Calif., and originally committed to Miami before flipping to Florida in November 2022. His alleged NIL deal with the Gators made national headlines, both for the astoundingly high dollar-figure, but also because there was apparently a lack of alignment between the football program and two different, independent collectives as to whether or not they could raise that much money to pay Rashada.
