On March 31, 2021 the Supreme Court heard oral argument in NCAA v. Alston. The question before the court was Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit erroneously held, in conflict with decisions of other circuits and general antitrust principles, that the National Collegiate Athletic Association eligibility rules regarding compensation of student-athletes violate federal antitrust law.
Hon. Joshua D. Wright, professor and Executive Director of the Global Antitrust Institute at Antonin Scalia Law School, joins us today to discuss this case's oral argument.
