The families of two UT football players have filed a new, class-action lawsuit against the NCAA and the Big 12 for failing to educate players about the effects on the brain for playing football.

The families of Julius Whittier and Alan Rickman filed the federal lawsuit in Texas Wednesday against the Big 12 Conference and the NCAA. Both played for Texas between 1969 and 1972. Whittier broke the color barrier at Texas as the first African American to play for UT and was inducted into the Hall of Honor.

Rickman died in 2012 after suffering from early on-set Alzheimer’s disease. Whittier also suffers from Alzheimer’s.

Both claim in the lawsuit they had repeated head impacts while playing football, and say the Texas football program did not have concussion management protocols.

Whittier filed a similar lawsuit in 2014, but that did not include Rickman as a plaintiff. It also only included the NCAA as a defendant.

The earlier class-action lawsuit also said it included “All former NCAA football players residing in the U.S. who played from 1960 – 2014 who did not go on to play professional football in the NFL and who have been diagnosed with a latent brain injury or disease.”

Wednesday’s suit says it includes, “All individuals who participated in the University of Texas’ varsity football program between the years 1952 and 2010.”

The original lawsuit changed venues to go into the Illinois District Court.
