Rashada

But two weeks after that, Rashada still signs with the Gators.

If the Jaden Rashada situation isn’t proof of how much college football has become like the pros, then nothing is.

Rashada’s recruiting journey is among those that will be recounted for some time because it is not just wild, but terribly entertaining in this new era of name, image and likeness.

That seemed to be an indication that maybe the Rashada family was posturing in order to make Florida follow through on some sort of financial commitment the school made in order for him to commit to sign with them.

In the lawsuit, Rashada is alleging that Napier and the Gator boosters induced him into committing to UF, without any plans of paying him any of the money that he was promised.

Then, just weeks before Florida high schools began their season — and around the same time 247Sports.com ranked him the nation’s No. 1 dual-threat quarterback in the 2023 class — Rashada and his family decided a Bay Area season would be worth the wait.
