With Georgia approving the opportunity for high school athletes to profit off name, image and likeness (NIL) deals, Florida could be next to go down that road.

The sixth-ranked Argos picked up their latest win Saturday, topping North Greenville 48-24 on the road and improving to 4-1 overall.
Marisa Turner spent her summer running cross-country for the local Navarre Xpress Track club.

Dalan Bunn started running his sophomore year of high school. Now a senior, Bunn has emerged as one of the Raiders’ top cross-country runners.
He has an interesting back story on how he ended up in cross-country.
It’s halftime at Pen Air Field on a Saturday night and the University of West Florida has already rolled up 35 points.
