Through a university spokesperson, Florida Atlantic coach Lane Kiffin declined to comment on the fraud lawsuit filed against him, FAU and the state of Florida on Tuesday.
In the suit filed in Shelby County, Ala., Antonio “A.C.” Carter accused Kiffin and FAU of fraud after he thought he was hired but then failed a background check.
Kiffin and FAU strength and conditioning coach Wilson Love allegedly offered Carter an assistant receivers coach and assistant strength and conditioning coach position to benefit from Carter’s relationship with a recruit FAU ultimately signed. Carter claims he was offered the job on Jan.
