Texas Attorney Serves Notice on University of Mississippi in Wrongful Death Suit
On February 19, 2010, Bennie Abram, a walk-on football player at Ole Miss, died unexpectedly during conditioning drills. Although UM athletic director Pete Boone claims that “the well-being of our student-athletes has and always will be our highest priority,” Mr. Abram’s attorney argues that Abram’s workout at Ole Miss was “recklessly intense” and in violation of NCAA guidelines. Tragically, the deaths of student-athletes—and, in particular, student football players—has become an all-too-common phenomenon. Routinely, football coaches and teams overwork their players.
