Georgia QB Jaden Rashada sues Florida coach Billy Napier, among others, over botched $13.85M NIL deal

Atta boy Billy.  Not to worry, USL will take you back:

Instead, a day after the $500,000 payment was due, the Gator Collective sent Rashada a termination letter of the $13.85 million deal. Still, the lawsuit claims Napier and Castro-Walker went to great lengths to convince Rashada that they would make good on the promised money even without the contract. Castro-Walker told Rashada's agents that the Gator Guard would now take on paying the deal and that "Hathcock, through the Gator Guard, would personally guarantee the $13.85 million obligation himself." The only payment allegedly made was for $150,000 to pay back John Ruiz, a prominent Miami booster, so that Rashada "could avoid possible litigation" with Ruiz who was seeking repayment from the initial $9.5 million NIL deal.

Looking at the Florida schedule, we won't have to face Billy this season. They will have 6 losses by the time we play them. Too add, he might not get to coach the first game of the season!

Florida defender arrested after fleeing police at over 150 mph, causing crash with injury

Florida defensive lineman Michai Boireau recently spent multiple nights in jail after being arrested for fleeing police on a high-speed chase, causing a crash with an injury in the process.

Boireau’s arrest was first reported by Steve Reece of the Monroe County Reporter in Georgia. Per Zach Abolverdi of On3, the Monroe County police report details that Boireau reached a speed of over 150 mph while fleeing police before causing an accident that injured the other driver:

“Michai Ishmael Boireau, 18, of Atlanta, was clocked by Cpl. Larry Sullivan doing 86 mph in his black 2018 BMW on I-75 just north of town around 10 p.m. As Sullivan pulled out to make a stop, Boireau turned off his lights and sped up to over 150 mph.

“Boireau drove recklessly, radically changing lanes and driving through traffic at speeds of more than 100 mph, passing vehicles on the shoulder. Boireau entered the rest area near mile marker 178, drove through the rest area, and nearly stopped at the exit before quickly accelerating and entering back onto the interstate.

“As Sullivan went around the curve at mile marker 176, he briefly lost sight of Boireau. When the corporal came out of the curve, he saw a wrecked Chevrolet Malibu in the median.”

The Malibu was reportedly damaged in the rear, with the 58-year-old driver being taken to the hospital for a possible head injury. Boireau was taken to Monroe County Jail, where he spent two nights before being released on $60,000 bond. He also admitted ownership of a bag of marijuana in his car.

Per reports, Boireau’s charges include fleeing, serious injury by vehicle, DUI-drugs and possession of marijuana less than one ounce. He reportedly told police that he was driving back to UF and fled because his license is suspended.

Boireau is a true freshman who enrolled at Florida in January. Out of Creekside High School, he was rated 3-stars, the No. 86 recruit in the state of Georgia, No. 87 defensive lineman and No. 754 prospect overall. Boireau signed with Florida after receiving interest from 25 other programs, including Georgia.
