The suit was filed two days before Miami’s contract deadline to pay AState. The suit asks to void the contract. Miami alleges Arkansas State is unreasonably asking to reschedule on dates Miami prefers to play at home.

ASU System General Counsel Brad Phelps has the following statement about the lawsuit:

“We are not surprised that Miami took this step, and we will respond to their lawsuit in due course.”
