Florida NIL/Recruiting

Did you guys see this article? It's insane what CFB has become. For coaches all about football, this has to be driving them crazy. This specific situation is a dick measuring contest between the agent representing the QB and the UF NIL "Collective" going back and forth. Perhaps the dysfunction mentioned by the agent is the collective trying to bag the kid in order to outbid Miami, but coaches didn't even want him?

What a nightmare. I hope the big spenders drown in disappointment with their purchases.

My take......if 4 Star already garners an $11M NIL....5 stars will exceed most coaches pay.....even SEC top asst.

Cry me a river. Maggard committed all resources to him. The donors were willing to step up.

Then he back stabbed and lied on the way out. Y’all can call it “the business of college football” all you want; it was reprehensible. I have no sympathy for a hypocrite.

It's insane that Florida offered him 11 million (is this for only one year or entire time on campus). Regardless Kenny pickett a 1st round qb contract is 4 years for a total of 14 million.

So a 4 star recruit is garnering what a 1st round qb is getting paid. That's absolutely insane

He was offered 3.2 million to stay. Regardless of what he said their isn't any loyalty. He ____ed us over and lied on what he sold us on his character.

….So how much did Fla offer Manning?

Things like what's described at start of this thread seem to suggest 2023 class of 4 & 5 star recruits might be less concentrated due to NIL opportunities. Maybe in a couple years more variety than same ole Alabama, Clemson, Ohio St., etc. will make the CFP.

Would you take him back after he fails at Florida?

No, that ship has sailed. I am all in on the Ultimate Deztination!

I still wonder what is going to happen in the locker room between players. Money doesn't make chemistry.

Wait, I may have a new slogan coming.

"my money don't jiggle, it folds.......a qb in two because he got an NIL deal and as a left tackle i did not"

i think thats ow it goes
