I don't know how they are going to beat this claim:
11. Pola agreed in paragraph 11(c) of the Pola Contract that he would not "under any circumstances solicit discussions or entertain employment with any other person or entity during the Term unless...given written permission to do so by [Tennessee Football] or by the Commissioner in accordance with NFL Rules," and that "[v]erbal consent is inadequate." Pola Contract, para. 11(c)
12. Pola was not given express written consent by Tennessee Football or the Commissioner of the NFL to entertain employment with any other entity.
I'm only about to be a first year law student, but that seems pretty damn indefensible.
