Reforming The Ncaa Drug-Testing Program To Withstand State Constitutional Scrutiny: An Analysis And Proposal, Thomas P. Simon

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Shortly after year-round testing went into effect, the California Court of Appeal held that the NCAA's original drug testing program violated a student-athlete's right of privacy as protected by the California Constitution. This Note examines the impact of that decision and attempts to design a program that will withstand state constitutional scrutiny. Part I describes the current NCAA drug-testing program. Part II looks at the fourth amendment argument against drug testing of student-athletes.

Sports Notes, Wornie L. Reed Jun 1990

Sports Notes, Wornie L. Reed

Trotter Review

The big-business nature of college sports is becoming increasingly apparent. Each of the four schools with basketball teams in the 1990 "Final Four" received $1,430,000, while the 64 invited teams were guaranteed at least $286,000 each.

The Legality Of Ticket Tie-Ins In Intercollegiate Athletics, Arthur D. Austin Jan 1980

The Legality Of Ticket Tie-Ins In Intercollegiate Athletics, Arthur D. Austin

University of Richmond Law Review

The dynamics of operating a "major" intercollegiate sports program have a tenuous nexus with academic ideals. Intercollegiate athletics is now a big business, dominated by the balance sheet of gate receipts, T.V. revenues, and talent recruiting. The best high school athletes are aggressively recruited for their physical prowess to play for teams that perform before large crowds-and frequently a national television audience-in gigantic stadiums and field houses. In many instances coaches and players gain national recognition and reverence unequaled by professors, poets, or Nobel prize winners. Yet the sponsors of these sports extravaganzas are academic institutions who by charter and …
