I thought a fat finger typed 13 instead of 1.3?

13 million for a player that hasn't even started a class yet.....insanity.

Not reading that but 13 mil over 4 years for any recruit is just wild

Yep. What situations like this are going to do is kill a program or two. Like it or not, the NCAA still has rules about what an institiution can do and sooner or later some school will get busted for being too "involved" in NIL deals. Don't think for a second that a scorned teenager won't throw a school under the bus.
These NIL conversations are amongst agents of the recruit and agents of the NIL collectives. Everybody's gotta get their cut and parents are directing their agent representative to gather the bids and they decide from there.
In UF's case with Rashada, I believe an attorney wants his commission and apparently there are differing opinions about who was supposed to pay the lawyer.

NIL is nothing more that pay for play.
That’s exactly what it is, and if I’m a company paying you to do something I.e. marketing, then yes their will be a contract. X amount of appearances for X about of dollars while you play at the school I want you to play at.

But I was told Billy wasn't paying kids and that's why he couldn't fill out his class?
Needs to add 7 more staff members to manage the nil budget

Well if it was Free Shoes U it could be that high but probably has a "all the crabs you can steal" clause in there to.

Well, he’s not coming to Florida so clearly he did not get $13MM. Closer to $0.00

13 million!!!! How in the world can a school /sponsor pay that ? Is it all up front? Are there any guarantees like you got to stay or you lose your money!

If that number really is true then I'd rather just cut ties at this point.

Even the NFL has a rookie cap. Why can't college? $13 million over 4 years is mid-late first round money for NFL rookie contracts including signing bonus.
The NFL has no cap on 3rd party endorsement deals. Ostensibly that's what these deals purport to be.

Leading legitimate sports media outlet reports UF paid recruit $13 million.
tRant:
Random anonymous message board jackass in Oklahoma posts that A&M paid recruits $30 million, woth zero supporting evidence.

Pretty much nailed it.

It's truly astounding how readily everyone believed that nonsense.

You can thank Aggie boosters for driving nil contracts up to unsubstantial amounts of money.
Every kid expects to get what was handed out in the first nil class . Aggie set the market.
Not saying it was 13 million but it was more than it should be
