The University of Minnesota is being sued by former 'almost' assistant coach Jimmy Williams. Williams, who left Sean Sutton's Oklahoma State staff, was Tubby Smith's first 'almost' hire at Minnesota. Tubby Smith had essentially hired Williams, but the university denied his employment because of a previous affiliation with a program that was sanctioned by the NCAA for violations. Since Williams had already resigned his job at Oklahoma State to take the job at Minnesota, he is now filing a lawsuit. Saul Smith had no comment on the situation.
At the University of Louisville, no football players have been arrested this week. A celebration is being planned for Saturday.
