On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) , Mike Lawson (@MikesonofLaw) and Mike Kravchenko (Find him on YouTube) bring you the latest updates across the NIL space and football as MLB playoffs are on deck.
The episode kicks off discussing Reggie Bush as he has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA, USC, and the Pac-12, seeking compensation for the use of his name, image, and likeness (NIL) during his college career at USC from 2003-2005. Bush's lawsuit argues that he should have been compensated for the revenue generated from his NIL, including jersey sales and media usage, which continue to profit from his image.
Next, the Pac-12 is undergoing significant turmoil as it expands by poaching schools from the Mountain West, while efforts to attract schools from the American Athletic Conference (AAC) have faltered. Utah State has agreed to join the Pac-12, creating more instability for the Mountain West, which has already lost Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, and San Diego State to the Pac-12. This leaves both the Mountain West and Pac-12 scrambling for stability as they attempt to solidify their memberships and negotiate new media rights deals.
The conversation then shifts to dive into Dan Campbell, head coach of the Detroit Lions, who experienced a troubling incident earlierwhen his home address was publicly leaked, or "doxxed," by a classmate of his daughter. The leak occurred following the Lions' loss in the NFC Championship game against the San Francisco 49ers. The classmate posted Campbell’s address on Snapchat, criticizing a decision made during the game, which led to multiple unwanted visitors and prank service calls at Campbell's home. This harassment forced Campbell and his family to move to a new residence for security reasons.
Finally, the episode closes with Mike and Mike diving into the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) filing a lawsuit against several sportsbooks over the unauthorized use of player NIL.

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) and Mike Kravchenko (Find him on YouTube) bring you the latest updates in sports law as we return just 24 hours before the NFL season kicks off. Mike is excited about the season, sporting his new Aaron Rodgers jersey. The episode then delves into several significant stories
Dan and Mike analyze the rumors surrounding a leaked PR plan for a potential breakup between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.

The legal ramifications, including defamation and forgery claims, are discussed as Fullscope PR denies the validity of the leaked document.
Next, a fake political ad featuring the Eagles endorsing Kamala Harris made headlines. The ad was displayed on bus stops, falsely promoting Harris as the Eagles' "official candidate." The Eagles quickly responded, confirming the ad was counterfeit and not authorized by the team. Dan and Mike explore the potential legal issues, including defamation, IP infringement, and election law violations.
The conversation then shifts to dive into Tom Brady’s potential conflict of interest as he seeks to become a minority owner of the Raiders while still holding a massive broadcasting contract with Fox Sports.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall was shot in the chest during an attempted robbery, with some to note there.

The trio discussed the intricacies of the settlement, which spans 133 pages, and aimed to break it down for the lovely listeners in an engaging and accessible manner.

The discussion underscored the challenges of balancing athlete compensation with competitive fairness and the evolving legal landscape. While the settlement attempts to address numerous issues, it leaves many questions unanswered, particularly regarding Title IX implications and the potential need for collective bargaining.

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) and Mike Kravchenko (Find him on YouTube) are joined by Bobby Hartwick (@BobbyHartwick) to bring you the latest updates in sports law as we find ourselves with yet another a jam-packed week across the board.
Next, they cover the new lawsuit filed by the Olympic and Paralympic Committee against PRIME, the energy drink owned by Logan Paul and KSI. The lawsuit claims PRIME infringed on the committee's trademarks by using phrases and symbols associated with the Olympics, such as "three-time Olympic gold medalist" and "repping Team USA." The trio discusses the legal intricacies of trademark enforcement and the potential repercussions for Prime.
Odell Beckham Jr.'s recent legal battle with Nike also gets attention. Despite Beckham's celebratory social media post claiming victory, Nike's statement asserts that all of Beckham's claims were decided against him without any monetary award. This confusing narrative underscores the importance of clear legal communications and the broader implications for athlete endorsement deals.
The conversation then shifts to a humorous yet important trademark dispute between Lamar Jackson and Troy Aikman over the word "eight." Jackson blocked Aikman's attempt to trademark "eight," claiming potential consumer confusion with his own trademarks like "Era 8" and "You 8 Yet." The group discusses the complexities of trademark law in sports and the likelihood of a coexistence agreement.
Bobby shares his insights into the Johnson vs. NCAA case as Trey Johnson, a former Villanova football player, along with other student-athletes, filed a class action lawsuit against the NCAA and several universities, arguing they should be classified as employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act. The Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that student-athletes could potentially qualify as employees, which could have major financial and compliance implications for colleges. The case was remanded to the district court to apply the new economic realities test, setting a precedent for evaluating student-athletes' employment status.
Mike shares his excitement for Netflix's upcoming "Untold" documentary series, which includes episodes on the Michigan sign-stealing scandal and other intriguing sports stories. Bobby recommends watching the Giants' "Hard Knocks" series for its in-depth look at front office operations and player evaluations, wrapping up a packed episode of sports law updates and insights.
