UCLA is seeking more than $200 million in damages from Under Armour in a breach of contract complaint filed Wednesday. The lawsuit comes as Under Armour has tried to get out of its 15-year apparel deal with the school.
Signed in 2016, the deal — worth at least $280 million — is the largest-ever signed by an NCAA school.
Under Armour has struggled this year, reporting a $131 million operating loss in its second quarter on July 31. UCLA’s athletic department had a $22 million deficit in the 2018-19 academic year.
