Attorney Ben Crump said student athletes faced physical and psychological abuse in Northwestern University's football program.

Scripps News spoke with attorney Ben Crump, one of the attorneys representing plaintiffs in a lawsuit against former Northwestern University head football coach Pat Fitzgerald and other Northwestern school leaders.

Crump told Scripps News his firm represented"13 former college athletes at Northwestern University who were victims of hazing and physical assault, and some of them sexual assault, that we believe stemmed from the culture that existed at Northwestern University. We want to try to set a precedent where this is not allowed at other universities."
