According to a Post Gazette article, former Gateway High School star Aiden Howard is suing the University of Virginia. He was injured during a hazing incident and then transferred to RMU.

He later was diagnosed with a concussion and was told he could not practice.

Six days later, Mr. Howard was granted a release from the national letter of intent he signed with Virginia. He transferred to Robert Morris University with hopes of playing football this year. But, according to the lawsuit filed in the Western District of Pennsylvania, an examination a month later showed that the brawl left him with a broken orbital bone, which required surgery.

t is unclear if he will ever be able to play football again,” wrote attorney C. James Zeszutek

Saw this on social media. I hope the above is just lawyer talk and not coming from a doctor. Right now he is not cleared to play. Hopefully next season he is able to play. I heard about this story in camp.
