Mississippi is suing two former football players who transferred to LSU this offseason, alleging both failed to repay portions of their NIL compensation after leaving the program.

The Rebels are seeking almost $1 million between the two lawsuits combined for unreceived payments —$550,000 for Umanmielen's early termination penalty and $400,000 for Harper's early termination penalty — as well as litigation fees resulting from the lawsuit.
