Hausfeld LLP Files Lawsuit Against The NCAA On Behalf of Former Student Athletes

UCLA basketball star Ed O’Bannon and thousands of former Division I men’s basketball and football players allege the NCAA violated federal antitrust law, by unlawfully foreclosing former players from receiving any compensation related to the use of their images and likenesses.
