Former Ole Miss Rebels head coach Houston Nutt refiled his lawsuit against the university, the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation and the IHL Board of Trustees, the Clarion-Ledger's Antonio Morales reported Wednesday.
A judge dismissed Nutt's original lawsuit in August. According to Morales, the legal action is "centered around an alleged breach of contract, breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing and punitive damages."
Yahoo Sports' Pat Forde reported among other issues Nutt believed Ole Miss engaged in a "long-running … smear campaign" against him after he resigned at the end of the 2011 season.
