"The lead plaintiff is former cornerback Devin Pugh, who claims that one year after his Weber State head coach left, the new coach decided in 2012 not to renew his scholarship. Pugh says three FBS schools -- Colorado, Colorado State and Troy -- offered him a scholarship, but it was contingent on his ability to play two more years. The offers were rescinded because NCAA rules required him to sit out one year and Pugh was denied a hardship waiver to play immediately."
