Jaden Rashada - Great case study for what's wrong with NIL

Rashada was the #5 rated QB player that in 2022 accepted offer from Miami which included a $7.1mil NIL deal. After committed for couple months, Rashada decommited from Miami and accepted an offer from Florida and a supposed $13.2mil NIL offer. This player never played for nor received payment from Florida and now has a lawsuit against the University and Billy Napier for $13mil.
This kid was chasing money in HS as he played at 3 different High Schools to include IMG. Since HS , starting 2023 he finally committed to Arizona St with limited play. Since then transferred to UGA for 2024 and did not see the field. Now he has transferred once again to Sacramento St. University for 2025, a university I have never heard of and can't even get offer from a G6 team.
Any player that set on chasing the big bag in HS should be avoided and explains why Dabo doesn't get into bidding wars for HS kids.
You can't convince me that the old college system wouldn't have been a huge benefit to Rashada as opposed to where he is today. A school without the program and development available that he would have had at a P4 school where he has had multiple opportunities.

I am going to channel my inner Judge Judy, “did he have a contract?” If not, it is Jaden’s word against UF. If not contract, no proof means no money.

then to top it off they have a greedy family member in their ear giving bad advice..which is another reason why there should be a set rate cap for the nil stuff.

The kid obviously was vastly overrated, not good enough to play and unless you work for CPA that did his tax return, why would you think he earned $7 million back in the early stages of NIL in 2022?

It was public knowledge that Miami offered him $7mil, well actually that ponzi scheme John Reyes ( pretty sure thats his name?) offered the money. He committed in 2022 but was a 2023 recruit. Then he committed to Florida for $13mil which he wasn't being paid at time of starting Florida therefore he left. All of this is public knowledge and if you look above you can read the actual suit.
So no I wasn't his CPA, I don't have to be.

Most of these kids will end up with nothing, including a college degree. That's

not meant to be an insult to the kids, I wouldn't have been able to handle a few million bucks at 19 either. Half of it would've gone up my nose, and the other half I would have just squandered.
