A little more than two months after a judge ordered Miami and Arkansas State to use a third-party mediator to resolve their dispute over a football game canceled ahead of Hurricane Irma, the two schools have reached a settlement.
A Miami spokesman confirmed the two schools had reached a settlement, but declined to give any specifics on the deal. However, in a statement released by Arkansas State, the school said Miami has agreed to pay Arkansas State $400,000 and the canceled game will not be rescheduled.
“I am pleased that both lawsuits have been resolved and that this matter is now behind us,” Arkansas State attorney Brad Phelps said in the statement.
