TL;DR Summary

Former New Mexico State basketball players Deuce Benjamin and Shak Odunewu held a news conference to discuss their lawsuit alleging that teammates sexually assaulted them multiple times and that their coaches and others at the school didn't act when confronted with the allegations. The players, their attorneys, and Benjamin's father, William, an Aggies Hall of Famer who is also a plaintiff in the lawsuit, detailed the ways the university failed the students. The state's department of education is getting involved, and the lawsuit has two missions: to find justice for the Benjamins and Odunewu and to effect change at a school where the basketball program alone has sparked no fewer than a half-dozen investigations.
