Georgia seeks $390K from DE Damon Wilson for transfer damages

Georgia's athletic department is headed to court to try to obtain $390,000 in damages from a former standout defensive end who transferred from the school after his sophomore season in a potentially precedent-setting case.
The Bulldogs have asked a judge to force former defensive end Damon Wilson, currently the top pass rusher on Missouri's defensive line, to enter into arbitration to settle a clause in his former contract that serves effectively as a buyout fee for exiting his deal early. Wilson played for Georgia as a freshman and sophomore before transferring to Missouri in January, two weeks after signing a new deal with Georgia's Classic City Collective.
Many schools and collectives have started to include liquidated damages clauses in their contracts with athletes to protect their investment in players and deter transfers. Georgia is one of the first programs to publicly try to enforce the clause by filing suit against a player.

This is what’s needed. The start of guardrails so it doesn’t continue to spiral out of control

You know what? Hell yea. Good on Georgia

GOOD! These “amiture” athletes need to realize that these are CONTRACTS they are signing and aren’t just getting Monopoly money because boosters just want to give their money away. NO PLAY, NO PAY!

After all the facts come out, people will be shocked at how the University of Georgia treated a student athlete," said Bogdan Susan, a Missouri-based attorney who is representing Wilson along with attorney Jeff Jensen. "It has never been about the money for Damon, he just wants to play the game he loves and pursue his dream of playing in the NFL."

Surprising it took this long

Why arbitration instead of a forced settlement. Take that to trial and win it all + damages

Bet the meathead had "Pro athlete" on his X page while he was in high school.

It gets worse for Wilson too. Allegedly Mizzou gave his family the money to repay UGA the $30K he’d already been paid and they chose not/failed to do so.
