Antitrust in the College Sports Arena

In 2020, several collegiate athletes filed suit against the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) arguing that by both denying athletes compensation and preventing them from pursuing third-party deals using their names, images, or likenesses (NIL) for profit, the NCAA was violating antitrust laws. After several years of discussion, there has still not been an official settlement reached, though one including back pay, revenue sharing, and a change in NIL rights has been proposed. Join this FedSoc Forum to discuss this case, its possible outcomes, and its implications for collegiate sports and the issue of sports antitrust writ large.Featuring:Prof. Jodi Balsam, Professor of Clinical Law, Brooklyn Law SchoolErik Clark, Ohio Deputy Attorney General for Major Litigation, Ohio Attorney General's OfficeRakesh Kilaru, Partner, Wilkinson Stekloff LLPModerator: Kaitlyn Barry, Associate, Baker McKenzie--To register, click the link above.
