SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS

The Jaguars put the finishing touches on a massive draft class on Saturday afternoon with two selections on offense and one on defense in the seventh and final round.

The Jaguars opened the final day of the NFL draft with picks on the defensive side of the ball, selecting Gators linebacker Ventrell Miller and Oklahoma State edge rusher Tyler Lacy in the fourth round.

Using name, image and likeness compensation to recruit college athletes is still very much against NCAA rules. The recent de-commitment from Florida by blue chip quarterback Jaden Rashada shows that NIL is definitely a factor in decisions. Booster-funded collectives are taking on a big role in compensating athletes. Schools can only hope they are acting within the rules and in their best interest. Inserting a third-party in the recruiting process between coaches and recruits has only complicated things. Experts say the collectives should focus on athletes who are already on campus.

Massive ticket sales and television ratings proved the 2022 Gator Bowl to be one of the top games of the year. Now, Gator Bowl Sports president Greg McGarity says the success of the most recent game could pave the way for more great matchups in the future.
