NIL dispute settles: Jaden Rashada, Napier, UF booster reach confidential agreement

Former Florida quarterback Jaden Rashada reached a confidential settlement in his NIL lawsuit against Billy Napier and a UF booster over a four-year, $13.85 million NIL package funded by Velocity Automotive; mediation on Feb. 10 produced the agreement as the case moved toward discovery, after being filed in May 2024 and involving claims tied to Florida's handling of the deal and Rashada's LOI. Rashada later transferred through several programs before landing at Mississippi State, while Napier departed Florida in 2025 and is now coaching James Madison.

Gators-Kentucky Showdown: A Championship Reunion

Florida No. 14 hosts No. 25 Kentucky in a high-stakes SEC clash that doubles as a reunion with former UF champion Denzel Aberdeen, who transferred to Kentucky after Florida’s title run. UF teammates publicly urged Aberdeen’s attendance and stressed the moment should be about respect, not distraction, while coach Todd Golden downplays the drama and treats it as just another game. Aberdeen’s 12.3 PPG, 3.2 APG for Kentucky adds emotional weight as UF (18-6, 9-2) aims for another win in Gainesville in the 3 p.m. Saturday showdown.

Gator Crowd Hurls 'G League Dropout' Chant at Bediako

During a Florida vs. Alabama game, Florida fans near the free-throw line shouted 'G League dropout' at Alabama center Charles Bediako, highlighting his NBA/G League path. Bediako has argued he should be eligible to return to Alabama under NCAA amateur-status rules after stints with the Spurs’ system and a G League contract, prompting legal action when the NCAA initially ruled him ineligible; a temporary restraining order allowed him to play while the case progressed.

Golden's Bold Prediction Pays Off as Florida Dismantles Alabama

Florida coach Todd Golden’s pregame boast that the Gators would beat Alabama with or without Charles Bediako paid off, as Florida rolled to a 100-77 win. Bediako fouled out late while Florida’s big men Rueben Chinyelu and Alex Condon dominated in the post, and the crowd taunted Alabama. Oats had accused Florida of bending the rules, but Golden’s team is peaking at the right time ahead of March Madness.
