Reevaluating Amateurism Standards In Men's College Basketball, Marc Edelman Jun 2002

Reevaluating Amateurism Standards In Men's College Basketball, Marc Edelman

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note argues that courts should interpret NCAA conduct under the Principle of Amateurism as a violation of§ 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act and that courts should order NCAA deregulation of student-athletes' indirect financial activities. Part I of this Note discusses the history of NCAA regulation, specifically its Principle of Amateurism. Part II discusses the current impact of antitrust laws on the NCAA. Part III argues that the NCAA violates antitrust laws because the Principle of Amateurism's overall effect is anticompetitive. Part IV argues the NCAA could institute an amateurism standard with a net pro-competitive effect by allowing student-athletes …


The Report Of The Attorney General's National Committee To Study The Antitrust Laws: A Retrospective, Thomas E. Kauper Jun 2002

The Report Of The Attorney General's National Committee To Study The Antitrust Laws: A Retrospective, Thomas E. Kauper

Michigan Law Review

In 1955, the third year of the Eisenhower administration, the Michigan Law Review published what I believe to be the only symposium on antitrust law ever to appear in its pages. The occasion was the release in March of that year of a Report of the Attorney General's National Committee to Study the Antitrust Laws,2 a nearly fourhundred- page examination of virtually all facets of federal antitrust doctrine and enforcement. The pages of the symposium led me of course to revisit the Report itself, a visit a little like seeing an old high school friend long forgotten some forty years …

Can't We Play Too?: The Legality Of Excluding Preparatory Players From The Nba, Thomas Lombardi Jan 2002

Can't We Play Too?: The Legality Of Excluding Preparatory Players From The Nba, Thomas Lombardi

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

This Note illustrates the legal action necessary to secure a high school underclassman's eligibility to compete in the NBA. Following the precedent established by Spencer Haywood in his suit against the NBA, a case factually analogous to the present issue, the NBA faces an anti-trust action alleging a group boycott in violation of Section I of the Sherman Act. However, incorporating the high school graduation rule into a collective bargaining agreement precludes a straightforward antitrust analysis and necessarily implicates the nonstatutory labor exemption. This Note suggests that even under an analysis favorable to the challenging preparatory player, the nonstatutory exemption …
