re: Former Bama receiver sues Lane Kiffin

I would guarantee you that the school, any school, has a policy about criminal convictions even misdemeanors that preclude you from being hired.

That said, I will acknowledge your point that Kiffin could have mislead him. More likely is that the coach didn't tell him that or that Kiffin is just clueless.

...but with misdemeanors on his record, he probably doesn't have much of a leg to stand on.

Every school is different with their hiring requirements. But Carter has no leg to stand on because apparently FAU automatically disqualifies candidates with misdemeanors on their record.

There are probably several scenarios of how this whole thing transpired, but all Kiffin has to say is that he "thought" it was a done deal, move on down......then when FAU's HR folks pulled the background check it quashed the whole deal.
