All Things NIL/NCAA, Bruins' Mitchell Miller, Brittney Griner, and Ime Udoka

Welcome to THE sports law podcast where we keep you up to date on everything at the intersection of sports and the law. Dan Lust is joined by Jason Morrin (@Jason_Morrin) and Justin Mader (@MaderLaw) to help break down the latest news. The Brooklyn Nets hire Jacque Vaughn as their new head coach. (1:15) With all of the negative PR surrounding Kyrie and the potential hiring of suspended Celtics coach Ime Udoka, the Nets promoted their assistant head coach in Vaughn. Brittney Griner has been moved to a Russian penal colony. (7:07) This move happened very quickly following the denied appeal made by Griner. Currently, it is unknown where Griner is being transported. The Boston Bruins have cut Mitchell Miller, but not without issue. (12:10) Miller was drafted in 2020 by the Coyotes, but had his draft status revoked after reports of his extreme bullying came out, including a juvenile conviction, and he became a free agent. Recently, the Bruins signed Miller and received immediate backlash for the signing. The Bruins are now attempting to take a step back and release Miller. However, The Bruins could face a breach of contract claim by Miller if they cut him now. Miller signed a 3-year deal, and it appears that the only reason for the release is a PR move by the Bruins when they knew all of the facts before signing Miller. Dan Greene (@DanGreene15) and Ryan Whelpley (@Whelpley_Law) join to help break down the latest on the NIL front. (26:10) House V. NCAA is a lawsuit seeking lost revenues for the NCAA's longtime prevention of athletes from earning NIL. Ryan gives some updates on the case and the movement towards class action status. Jonson v. NCAA asks the question of whether a student-athlete can be considered an employee. Johnson is currently in the Federal 3rd Circuit on appeal. Dan gives updates on the NIL legislative front with Pennsylvania amending their NIL law. (40:56) Dan and Conlan are back with the betting segment sponsored by Bettor Edge.
