Jaden Rashada, the quarterback for the Georgia Bulldogs, is suing Billy Napier, the coach of the Florida Gators, and prominent supporters of the University of Florida athletic department for not fulfilling their end of a non-compete agreement that would have paid him around $14 million.
Before switching his comments to Florida, 20-year-old Rashada had committed to play collegiate football with the Miami Hurricanes. After learning from reporters that the Gators had extended a NIL contract worth $13.85 million, he decided to recommit from Miami and make a commitment to in-state rival Florida.
But just as he was about to sign with Florida, the 6-foot-4 quarterback asked to have his National Letter of Intent revoked. Rashada reportedly cited the $13.85 million NIL deal’s failure as the reason for his decision to quit the Gators football program.
