Udonis (who was undrafted) is at 60 million and counting, on track to earn another 2.56 MM this year, nosing him past Emmitt.

Mike Miller, at 98.5 MM, seems to have been omitted.

 That got me thinking — who is the richest ex-Gator athlete? And yes, Newton qualifies despite his most memorable throw being the tossing of a stolen computer out his dorm window to hide it from police in 2008. 

Going by career earnings in their sports, the winner is Al Horford, who's made $212.1 million and has two years left on a contract that'll pay them (non-gendered pronoun!) another $53 million. 

Next is Joakim Noah with $136.5 million and Chandler Parsons with $126.9 million. 

Newton is No. 4 with $122.5 million, so the heckler wasn't exactly right about Newton's financial situation. 

Emmitt Smith, who never tossed a stolen computer out of his dorm room at Florida, made $61.2 million toting the football for the Dallas Cowpeople and Arizona Cardinals. No disrespect to Parsons, but something's wrong when they've made twice as much as Emmitt ...
