LAS CRUCES, New Mexico (KVIA) -- Joleen Younger, the attorney for William Benjamin, William "Deuce" Benjamin and Shakiru Odunewu, stated they will be holding a press conference.
"Deuce" Benjamin and Dunewu are former NMSU Men's Basketball players, and they allege that negligence from the previous coaching staff and school administration led to a culture of abuse within the program - that ultimately caused the suspension of the program.

All three plaintiffs will be present at the press conference, along with their legal representation.
