The parents of transfer offensive lineman Cade Mays filed a lawsuit against the school last month after part of the father's pinky was amputated during a 2017 recruiting event.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution obtained a copy of the lawsuit, which was filed by Kevin and Melinda Mays in the State Court of Clarke County on Dec. 5, 2019. According to the lawsuit, Kevin and Melinda Mays, along with their sons Cooper and Cade, attended a dinner with recruits at Sanford Stadium on Dec. 15, 2017. While attempting to get up, Kevin Mays's finger got stuck in the hinge of a folding chair.
