UPDATE: Jack Pyburn wanted some “guarantees” according to @ZachAbolverdi
- 45k per month - guaranteed starting position at OLB - guaranteed to play on 3rd downs - more snaps in the rotation
Florida wasn’t willing to agree, so Pyburn entered the portal

If true, I hope no one takes him in.
I’m sure Lane would take him.

Yeah, he'd fit right in with Lane.

This kind of stuff is exactly why Dabo doesn’t want anything to do with the portal…….honestly can’t blame him.

these demands are ridiculous if true. Nobody should be guaranteed a starting spot, especially if that's literally part of a contract, and LBs getting pulled for nickel corners and such on 3rd downs is just part of football.

Guaranteed starting position and to play on 3rd downs? Shouldn’t that be up to the coaches? I’m glad UF didn’t give in and let him leave.

It would be interesting to see where he ends up. If no big school takes him in the portal, he could end up playing D3 in some nowhere school against really poor competition.

Even professional players aren’t guaranteed starting positions. That’s a ridiculous request. He will end up in San Jose State or something inferior.

Sounds like the staff was offended and leaked his demands as a FU to him. This makes him look awful and no coach or fan base will want him around their program.

Is this kid actually good enough to make these demands? This is so silly.
It's going to be incredibly eye opening for about 80% of these kids making big NIL checks when they graduate and move on to something other than football. They're going to feel silly pulling up to the office where they sell insurance in a Bentley truck that's worth 4x their annual salary.

Inflated egos with no comprehension of finances. $540k a year + demands. No performance based incentives or injury clauses? Can't believe the amount of cash being thrown around these days. Give me a break.

Not yet; since these UF coaches didn't give in. But, "it's coming"!

Wow, wanting guarantees in regards to playing time....WoW wow wOw woW
I shouldn't say this, but I hope somebody guarantees it, signs him.... and they bench him the very first game!!! He can reenter the portal and suck eggs elsewhere.

This is what so many wanted.
It’s either this or “exploitation” according to some on this board.
