Former North Carolina sports agent Carl Carey lost another round on Thursday in his protracted legal tussle with Robert Quinn and Marvin Austin, two former North Carolina football players who made it to the NFL.
Carey and his company, Champion Pro Consulting Group, sued Quinn and Austin four years ago alleging that the players conspired with others to extract nearly $300,000 in expenses from Carey’s agency before another sports agent stepped in and negotiated Quinn’s $14.7 million contract with the St. Louis Rams. The team has since moved to Los Angeles
Carey, an adjunct professor at Lone Star College in Kingswood, Texas, has outlined seven counts of damages in his lawsuit that has gone through several renditions.
