Former LSU defensive end Princewill Umanmielen has been served legal documents in connection with a July lawsuit filed by the University of Mississippi. The lawsuit alleges that Umanmielen owes Ole Miss $550,000 for his transfer from the Rebels to the Tigers. According to records filed in Lafayette County Civil Court in Mississippi, papers were served on Tuesday, just five days before LSU was set to face Ole Miss in a highly anticipated game.

Umanmielen was served outside LSU's football operations complex, and was informed of the lawsuit by an anonymous source. Ole Miss has said that the agreement between the players included a provision requiring them to compensate the university if they departed before fulfilling their commitment.
