More than 300 former Wolverines have joined the class-action lawsuit, which the NCAA and Big Ten is looking to get dismissed.

A year after winning a national championship, Michigan football finds itself in the middle of a legal battle that could reshape college athletics. Over 300 former Wolverines are suing the NCAA and the Big Ten, claiming their names, images, and likenesses (NIL) were used without permission—and more importantly, without compensation.

Former Michigan football stars Denard Robinson and Braylon Edwards filed a lawsuit back in September against the Big Ten and the NCAA. They filed the lawsuit because they claim that the NCAA, Big Ten and Big Ten Network used their name, image and likeness without permission.
