This is the problem:

quote:

Chicago-based law firm Edelson, PC filed six suits in federal courts across the country, on behalf of ex-college football players. These men say their schools, the athletic conferences and the NCAA knowingly hid the dangers and risks of playing football and didn’t do enough to protect students. The firm expects to file dozens of similar lawsuits, which could eventually involve tens of thousands of former college football players. In January, a federal judge ruled in a related head-injury settlement against the NCAA that former players could pursue personal injury claims as part of a class-action lawsuit. The ruling opened the doors to the suits filed Tuesday.

If by "problem" you mean sleazy trial attorneys.I completely agree.

y their schools, the athletic conferences and the NCAA knowingly hid the dangers and risks of playing football and didn’t do enough to protect students.

Would love to see this evidence but they really don't teach much science in front of an ill informed emotional jury.
