From the Gator ON3 site... Discussion on how their NIL system is supposed to work-

Any NIL deal that a UF player/signee has is with Gator Collective. They facilitate the deals and make sure the athletes fulfill their obligations, but the actual money that funds those deals come from different sources.

For the football team -- and especially the top players -- those deals are funded by the Gator Guard (Hugh Hathcock and a few of his fellow million-dollar donors). Then it's Gary Condron for baseball, Chandler Parsons and others with men's hoops, Jeff Nudelman for women's hoops, etc.

They put up the funds and the Gator Collective signs the athletes to the NIL deals and executes them. In addition to funds from big donors, Gator Collective also allocates the fan donations it receives toward NIL deals, but it's just not as much money as what Hathcock and Condron contribute.

The Gator Guard -- not the Gator Collective -- would be responsible for whatever NIL figure Jaden Rashada was offered, but GC is the entity that actually has to draw up the deal, have Rashada sign it and then get him to execute it. Hugh Hathcock is literally just wiring the money over.
 
Part 2:

The funds from Gator Guard probably covers the top 10-20 football players. The GG raised $5 million before the start of the season and $1M of that went to one player.

The money that Gator Collective generates takes cares of the rest of the football team along with players from other sports.
 
Well they did get one thing right in all that mess of conspiracies and paranoia: There’s little doubt that Miller/Mertz might be the worst QB room in the entire SEC. Holy cow...I wouldn’t envy any team who went into next season with them as your two best options.

If we reallllly wanted to get these clowns rustled then someone should superimpose Heitner's head on the body of that magnificent ******* that flashed The U at his UiF graduation. Say we found footage of Heitner receiving his diploma and the background noise is Ruiz clapping.

College blue blood showing it's ***, or just the latest in a mountain of evidence that FU is not and never has been a blue blood program? I'm going with the latter.

It was also obviously much cheaper to cheat for a lot of these programs with overinflated senses of self-worth that were obviously shielded by essentially blanket immunity granted to the SEC by Emmert and the NCAA.

Now that the playing field has somewhat been leveled by NIL they act erratic and perpetually confused. They lash out incessantly with conflicting narratives because any sense of transparency or a kid actually able to go somewhat public with their financial dealings blows their "collective" minds and makes them yearn for yesteryear when this was all handled via actual bags and 2am Western Union money transfers to uncles and "mentors".

They have to maintain their delusions. Better to risk stroking out over the cognitive dissonance than to acknowledge the small modicum of success they had was only made possible by an unlevel playing field. And without it their future prospects bleaker than ever.
