The saga of Jaden Rashada continues. One of the episodes in Florida Football lore that will forever live in infamy is the former four-star QB's signing with the Gators, then backing out of his LOI due to NIL disagreements.

After eventually landing with Arizona State, Rashada was off to the transfer portal after just one season. It's easy to view Rashada as a one-off circus, but the reality is that his story, when it's all over, is going to be a common tale among players all around the country.

Back in 2022, Rashada felt like he was a lock to land at Florida during the summer before announcing his intention to play for Miami.

That lasted four months, and Rashada flipped to Florida in November of 2022. Then, in a circus act that could rival an SNL skit, Florida's NIL deal with Rashada was comically overvalued, and when the Gators tried to back out of the deal, Rashada backed out as well.

Now, as Rashada once again has used the transfer portal to land with Georgia, it will be the fourth school he has "committed" to in under two years.

The irony is that Rashada seemingly lost his job to someone taking a similar journey as himself. Sam Leavitt was a lower-end four-star from the class of 2023 who was committed to Washington State but flipped to Michigan State a week before signing day. He transferred from East Lansing to Tempe this offseason and beat out Rashada for the starting job.

And it's not just Rashada taking a convoluted college football journey. Players such as Cormani McClain and Payton Kirkland had recruiting shenanigans themselves and are also in the spring transfer portal after just one season. There are also recruiting stories like Austin Simmons and Peyton Joseph, both of whom committed to Florida but flipped away two months later, or Nick Evers, who flipped to Oklahoma after Dan Mullen was fired but transferred after one season to Wisconsin and is now back in the transfer portal.

There are scores of other players who could be highlighted, but the overall theme is that the days of having a player commit and knowing they would be with your team for four years are long gone. With the updated transfer rule announced this week that allows unlimited transfers, one just has to assume that everyone on the roster is on a one-year contract.

The truth of the matter is that this latest window will be the craziest that we have seen so far in the transfer portal era. The rules have never been this unclear, and it's nearly impossible for the NCAA to rule over the process after its loss in Federal Court. Despite this window lasting just two weeks, it'll be by far the wildest period we've seen to this point. Welcome to the new era of college football.

Or as Taylor Swift fans would say, we are in the Transfer Era.
