Overview
- WIlson filed a 42-page countersuit in Boone County, Missouri, alleging Georgia’s athletic association and the now-defunct Classic City Collective sought to punish his transfer through a coordinated campaign.
- He claims the December 2024 three-page term sheet was non-binding, citing language that it "will be used to create a legal binding document," and accuses the defendants of tortious interference, civil conspiracy, confidentiality breaches and defamation.
- Georgia previously moved in Clarke County, Georgia, to compel arbitration and is seeking $390,000 in liquidated damages after paying Wilson $30,000 on what was outlined as a 14‑month, $500,000 arrangement.
- The countersuit alleges Georgia staffers told other Power Four programs he faced a $1.2 million buyout, which his lawyers say deterred NIL offers during his portal recruitment.
- No court has ruled on jurisdiction or enforceability, positioning this dispute as an early test of NIL exit clauses in the post–revenue-sharing era.
