Former Big East Player of the Year Myles Powell is reportedly suing Seton Hall, claiming the school and coach Kevin Willard acted negligently in allowing him to play on a torn meniscus, per Nicholas Katzban of NorthJersey.com.
Powell, 24, alleges that the school, Willard and the team's director of sports medicine, Tony Testa, told him his knee injury was minor and would not be further aggravated if he continued playing on it during the 2019-20 season.
In the lawsuit, Powell says he suffered an ankle injury in the second game of the season, which Testa said was confined to the ankle and would not be worsened if Powell continued to play.
