So these Bull Gators, who contribute millions to Gator athletics said they don’t know how much money is in the NIL collective, didn’t demand to know along with more transparency but specifically said they don’t want to contribute to it?

But they’re willing to spend $27 million to fire the coach even though the ability to pay players from a NIL collective directly impacts our ability to attract talent.

horseshite. If my name is on a building I’m expecting those books to be cracked open.

I question the validity of that post but that is circling around Gator social media and message boards rn so who knows if it’s true at all or not

Would be funny if he ended up at Miami. Cristobal is desperate and pathetic enough to do it

I don't care where he ends up!!!!

I honestly don't see where Florida would owe him anything. I would have hoped he was never offered 13 mill from Florida,

But even if he was until he signs the papers he gets nothing.

So if he never signed any papers with UF. I don't see how UF owes him anything. I definitely do not understand all the legal stuff behind the ordeal. you can be offered 50 mil . If you never sign the papers that stipulate the deal. You get nothing

No matter just glad we have Lagway and not Rashada.

I guess the Gator are pretty much skipping the portal this year. The last time I looked we aren't in the top 100. Thoughts?

No money for NIL?
Lazy recruiting by Napier of the portal?
We are good, with the players we have?

Saving the money to pay a new OC, play caller?

It would be funny if it wasn't sad.

Def not saving money for an OC. Probably saving money for UAA parasites to give themselves nice end of year bonuses after we have competitive basketball, softball, baseball seasons and Lagway wills us to 9+ regular season wins.

With Napier continuing to call plays although this was heavily discussed before he got the vote of confidence from Sticklin, IMO he is all in. If we are successful, good for him and the Gator Nation. If not, and we continue to lose games the way we have the last couple years, then he should be fired along with Stricklin who let him make this decision.

8th ranked recruiting class in the Nation, crying like a bitch over the portal.


Glad to see nothing has changed in here.

I am afraid, "The horse is out of the barn." and "The Genie is out of the bottle." and "You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube."

I don't believe there will be anything done to solve the issues. We will just have to live with the destruction of college athletics as we know it.

This I fear!

On a positive note, this all happened about a century ago and it exploded and got smaller and more normal for the real people and fans.

Course it took a Great Depression and a World War to help it along. GI bill after WWII is what fueled the issues a generation later (late 70's and early 80') so who knows.

Aberdeen leaving and signing with Kentucky was a slap in the face but at least he didn't, as far as I know, give the BS, "I'll always be a Gator." post before signing with our biggest basketball rival. I am waiting on one of these players to be honest and just say, "I left because they paid me more money, peace out." The system is broke. College athletics will never be the same. It has become the official minor leagues for pro sports.
