Column: Head-On Problem

With constant controversy swirling around the NCAA, it comes as no surprise when the organization faces a lawsuit.

This time, the case is much more serious and hits close to Idaho.

Former Idaho cornerback Antjuan Tolbert filed a lawsuit against the NCAA and Sun Belt conference in early October. He claimed the organizations did not do enough to prevent head injuries during his time at Idaho.

Tolbert now experiences symptoms of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE).

Tolbert is just one of many former athletes seeking to right the wrongs of the NCAA. Former players from over 17 schools filed suits this year.
