Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast
NASCAR Antitrust Trial, Lane Kiffin Chaos, Brian Kelly Fallout & The Giannis Situation
05 Dec 2025
On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) , and Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) are joined by Landis Barber (@LandisBarber) to run the gamut of sports law stories on our radar this week. The trio kicks off with a dive into the NASCAR antitrust trial, welcoming attorney Landis Barber back to the podcast to explain why this is the most consequential case in NASCAR history. Landis lays out the origins of the charter system, the escalating dispute between teams and the privately-owned NASCAR organization, and why Michael Jordan’s 23XI Racing sits at the center of the fight. The group breaks down Judge Bell’s early rulings, potential remedies, and what a win for Jordan’s camp could mean for the future of stock-car racing.Next, we shift to the college football coaching carousel, starting with the latest on Brian Kelly’s firing at LSU and the massive buyout implications. Dan revisits the timeline that began with James Franklin’s firing at Penn State, drawing a straight line between Franklin’s dismissal and the pressure that built on LSU to move on from Kelly. The trio then unpacks the unprecedented mid-season move of Lane Kiffin to LSU, discussing why Ole Miss blocked Kiffin from coaching in the College Football Playoff, the bizarre contract provisions that survived his departure, and the broader lack of enforcement mechanisms in the current NCAA landscape. Landis highlights the recruiting-calendar pressure that fuels these rapid exits while Dan revisits the failed SCORE Act and the slipping influence of the NCAA’s proposed governance reforms.The episode wraps with a breakdown of the Giannis Antetokounmpo situation in Milwaukee, where a week of trade-rumor smoke was followed immediately by a suspiciously timed calf injury. Mike walks through the reporting cycle, the collective bargaining rules around veteran no-trade clauses, and how this compares to prior superstar standoffs involving Jimmy Butler and James Harden. Dan lays out why the timeline raises questions, predicts that Giannis’s “two-to-four-week” injury may quietly stretch longer, and explains how this could depress the Bucks’ leverage while increasing the Knicks’ pursuit options.Let us know your thoughts!***Have a topic you want to write about?
