He’s still unsigned, right?

Theoretically, all the Collective would need to require is for Rashada to sign one autograph in four years and it would be fine with the NCAA

Agreed…it’s not sustainable. Let’s say Rashada got his deal. That’s over $3M allotted to the QB position in 2023. Then there is the 2024 class. Florida wants to sign another blue chip quarterback. Then factor in normal wage inflation typical of sports. The next QB gets $4M. That’s now $7M...

I can only imagine what Florida would have promised Arch Manning to sign. Next Florida Collective's Offer:

We need David Singer on this

And given NIL versus old school bags, it will have to be an unprecedented large bag.

They should have just paid him. Florida took a potential multi-year hit in credibility with recruits and will probably have to pay more in the short-term to land a recruit in the next cycle or two. As in paying lots of money up front. So to get 2024 five star QB to sign, they need to offer him...

That's possible, but didn't anyone stop to think what would happen when they pulled the offer post ESD? Pre 2021, if a school had a 200K bag that they cancelled after the player signed with the school, what was his recourse? He couldn't go to the media and say, "Hey, I was promised 50K per year...

If UF was offering $13M over 4 years to Rashada, I wonder if at what point (if at all) that they realized that their 2024, 2025, and 2026 quarterback signings would also need to be offered even more. That by 2026, they potentially would be committing probably $15M per year on maintaining their...

Could they overuse him? I.e., Nico, you have to be at 30 autograph signings per month, for five hours a day?

And then they came running after him, this time offering nine figures. In this inflated currency.

To be fair, isn’t that what they did pre NIL with bags when players visited. However now they’re on the hook for millions perhaps, as opposed to thousands.

Yes. Absolutely.

If I was Deion and I had access to the apparent $30M in annual NIL funds that he does, I’d go after Rashada too. And Garcia after him.

If they refuse to release him from his LOI and he doesn't report to campus, is it like an NFL contract (ala a player holdout) where he does not accumulate years until reporting in?

Somehow, Martell has become involved.

My pug is the definition of macho.

I get that he doesn't want to lose the leverage of being able to transfer free in the future, but at this point Rashada should sign the LOI and 60 seconds later enter the transfer portal so all of his options are available. I'm curious if Florida would play hardball sans this and try to put the...

Regardless of what people here want, is there any word as to whether Miami is a contender for Rashada now? Is Mario still interested. Or has that door been closed?
