Current Players Join Ed O'Bannon Lawsuit


Six current players have joined the class-action Ed O'Bannon anti-trust lawsuit against the NCAA. With current players joining the suit, now any damages could reach into the billions of dollars for the NCAA and schools. The lawsuit, filed in 2009, concerns the use of players' likeness in video games and high-dollar TV deals without compensation.
The six men that have joined the lawsuit (all football players):
Jake Fischer - LB, Arizona
Jake Smith - K, Arizona
Chase Garnham - LB, Vanderbilt
Darius Robinson - CB, Clemson
Moses Alipate - TE, Minnesota
Victor Keise - WR, Minnesota.
Asked by ESPN's Outside The Lines, the NCAA had no comment.
