Six former Florida State basketball players have filed a lawsuit against head coach Leonard Hamilton, alleging he failed to deliver on $1.5 million in promised NIL compensation.
The players claim Hamilton's pledge of adequate NIL money influenced their decisions to transfer, leading them to believe they would all receive substantial funding.
Text messages included in the lawsuit show players were compelled to play under the promise of immediate payment, creating tension and a boycott threat.
This lawsuit follows a trend of NIL-related legal disputes, with recent cases highlighting failures in fulfilling agreements across several college sports programs.
