On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SportsLawLust)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and Mike Kravchenko (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find him on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) guide you through the latest updates in the sports law world as we go across baseball, college football, the NFL, and so much more...including two special updates from the Conduct Detrimental team. Dan first proposes a theory that the Mets and Braves may have colluded to split wins in their recent series, raising questions after suspicious betting odds surfaced during a critical game. Both teams celebrated after the games, further fueling suspicion. The duo also discuss former UNLV quarterback Matt Sluka claims the university failed to honor a promised $100,000 NIL deal, paying him only $3,000. This has sparked discussions about NIL transparency and pay-for-play dynamics in college sports. They cover the legal battle that has ensued over the ownership of Shohei Ohtani's 50th home run ball, with fan Max Matus filing a lawsuit claiming the ball was wrongfully taken from him by Chris Belanski. The auction for the ball is currently paused pending a hearing. Former Jacksonville Jaguars employee Amit Patel is suing FanDuel, claiming the platform exploited his gambling addiction, leading to $1 million in losses. Patel seeks $250 million in damages, alleging the sportsbook continued to market to him despite his self-exclusion efforts. Conduct Detrimental has launched its 2024 Sports Law Writing Competition, focusing on sports and employment law. The prompt challenges participants to analyze the Third Circuit's economic realities test for assessing student-athlete employment claims. Submissions are due by November 8, 2024. The second annual Conduct Detrimental “10 Under 10” awards will recognize ten exceptional sports law professionals within ten years of their law school graduation. Winners are chosen based on peer nominations and their contributions to the sports law field. Have a topic you want to write about?
