The way college football works is about to change forever | A Georgia QB sues the Florida coach

This show is sponsored by Rhoback, the makers of the world’s most comfortable hoodies, polos and shorts. Use the code “ANDY” on Rhoback.com for 20 percent off for all new customers through the end of this week.(0:00-12:59) Intro - House v NCAA(13:00-15:09) Jaden Rashada Suing Billy Napier Recap(15:10-33:11) Pete Nakos Joins(33:12-45:26) Nick De La Torre Joins(45:27-58:37) Florida's Outlook in 2024(58:38-1:00:40) ConclusionThe ACC and Big 12 have voted to approve the House v. NCAA settlement. The NCAA's Board of Directors has as well. More approvals will come, which means schools could be sharing revenues directly with athletes within the next year.What seemed unthinkable 10 years ago is on the verge of happening.Meanwhile... QB Jaden Rashada has sued Florida coach Billy Napier and Florida mega-donor Hugh Hathcock alleging fraud because Rashada didn't receive any of the money he claims he was promised during his recruitment by Florida. Rashada, a four-star prospect in the class of 2023, flipped from Miami to Florida in November 2022. He signed with Florida even though his NIL deal already had been terminated by the collective that wrote it. He claims in the suit that Napier and Hathcock assured him he'd receive $1 million upon signing with the Gators. He did not. Rashada wound up playing last year at Arizona State and has since transferred to Georgia. On3's Pete Nakos joins to discuss the case.Later, Nick De La Torre of Gators Online joins to talk about what impact the lawsuit could have on Napier and the Gators. Nick also fills us in on where Florida stands following spring practice as the Gators face a brutal schedule in a make-or-break year.Want to watch the show instead?
