As first reported by Christopher Walsh of SEC Country, former University of Alabama wide receiver Antonio “A.C.” Carter has sued Florida Atlantic University head football coach Lane Kiffin, along with FAU and the state of Florida, for fraud, breach of contract and unjust enrichment.
Carter insists that Kiffin duped him in what turned out to be an unsuccessful exchange of recruiting assistance for an FAU football staff job.
Misled or misinformed—or both?
As Carter tells it, shortly after FAU hired Kiffin as head football coach in December, Wilson Love, Kiffin’s hire for strength and conditioning coach, reached out to Carter about joining the FAU staff.
