Pitt Suit Settled, Disputed
The University of Pittsburgh settled a lawsuit by a paralyzed football player, but the amount the player will be paid is in dispute.
Lawyers for Demale Stanley said he will get $31 million, but the university put the sum at about $5 million.
Stanley contended the university and football coaches, including Johnny Majors, were negligent during an indoor practice four years ago when the player hit a padded concrete wall headfirst.
