The Future of College Athletics After the SCOTUS Decision in 'NCAA v. Alston', Lawline Program
November 1, 2021
In an upcoming program for Lawline, Melissa H Maxman and Ronald F Wick explore NCAA v. Alston, the first comprehensive case addressing the NCAA's scope of authority in more than 35 years.
In June 2021, the Supreme Court of the United States unanimously held that the National Collegiate Athletic Association ("NCAA") has violated the Sherman Act with its rules limiting the amount of education-related compensation colleges and universities can provide to student-athletes. However, the Court did not define what constitutes education-related compensation, and the NCAA still has the ability to define the outer boundaries of that term.
This webinar will consider NCAA v. Alston as it relates to the Sherman Act and the implications the Court's decision will have.
