Chris Doering doesn’t sound like a fan of the whole Jaden Rashada saga at Florida.
Rumors are swirling that the 5-star QB has asked for his release from his National Letter of Intent at Florida due to not getting enough NIL money.
On SiriusXM Radio on Wednesday, Doering, a former Florida receiver, sounded off on Rashada:
Per reports, 5-star QB recruit Jaden Rashada has asked for a release from his National Letter of Intent at Florida.

“I’m even more happy that he didn’t get that $13 million reported NIL deal, that it fell through,” Doering said. “I would be so upset and so offended as a former Gator. … I may not have ever deserved $13 million for an NIL deal, but you know who did? Tim Tebow. Danny Wuerffel. Emmitt Smith. And you know why? It’s because of what they did when they played at the University of Florida.
“The idea of paying some kid we don’t even know is going to be good $13 million to come put on the orange and blue? I know the day has changed and there are motives outside of just the love of university and the opportunity to play in the SEC, but this kid does not deserve $13 million and I am so glad to hear that Florida will not be paying him that. And I’m happy to hear that he will not be attending the University of Florida.”
Where will Rashada end up next? It sounds like whatever school takes him better have deep pockets.
