Rashada hits the portal

That's not what I said about Smart telling Rashada to not litigate. I said Smart could have/should have ended his relationship with Rashada. Smart had no obligation to have the coming distraction on his team.

If he felt he had to honor any already signed agreement with Rashada, he should have said so. If that is the case, he could have couched his words differently plus it may be that Rashada was given no choice except to go back into the portal.

Either way, Kirby Smart didn't have to give his blessing or approval. Expressing a reservation is far different that telling Rashada not to move forward.

 

You are entitled to your opinion. Yet, it doesn’t really matter what you decide to believe, does it? It’s not Smart’s place to bless or discourage Rashada from non program related legal matters and I believe were the roles reversed, Napier would have acted similarly. Smart was clear on his position. You are owed nothing and Smart was not obligated to state whether or not Rashada’s pursuits changed his standing with the program.

 

He ought to sue Smart for wasting a year of his eligibility
