The Employment Status Of The Twenty-First Century Ncaa Collegiate Athlete: An Evaluation Of The Fair Labor Standards Act And The National Labor Relations Act, Danielle L. Kennebrew
The Employment Status Of The Twenty-First Century Ncaa Collegiate Athlete: An Evaluation Of The Fair Labor Standards Act And The National Labor Relations Act, Danielle L. Kennebrew
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
Many individuals believe that the twenty-first century NCAA collegiate athlete should not be classified as an employee of their respective universities due to the longstanding tradition of amateurism governing collegiate athletics. However, such a proposition does not analysis the statutory test articulated by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) when determining a worker’s employment statues. Upon review of the economic realities test utilized by the FLSA and the common-law agency test utilized by the NLRB, there are strong arguments for collegiate athletes holding employee status resulting from the compensation they receive in the …

Ncaa’S Name, Image, And Likeness Rules In The Wake Of The Nba’S G League: What It Means For Antitrust Protection, Nathanial Hall
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
This paper analyzes the development of the NBA’s age restriction rules and places those developments alongside the newfound trend of America’s top players opting out of playing in the NCAA, and instead seeking out other avenues when it comes to their one-year “development.” The paper begins by giving a brief antitrust analysis as those laws relate to age eligibility rules in the NBA. Next, this paper reviews the evolution of professional sports age eligibility requirements as they relate to their respective drafts. In doing so, the paper will discuss the current format of the NBA’s Draft, its rookie wage scale, …
A Global Pandemic And A Wildcat Strike: How Covid-19 And Civil Unrest Could Impact The Nba’S Labor Relations, Bennett A. Herbert
A Global Pandemic And A Wildcat Strike: How Covid-19 And Civil Unrest Could Impact The Nba’S Labor Relations, Bennett A. Herbert
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
The future of the NBA’s labor relations could be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent civil unrest around the country. The current NBA collective bargaining agreement was approved in 2016. In the four seasons following its approval, both owners and players were seemingly pleased with the general state of the league. The NBA’s annual revenue ballooned from $5.2 billion in 2016 to $8.8 billion in 2019, and there were few reports of any significant tension between owners and the Players Association. However, 2020 threw two wrenches that may crucially affect both the immediate and long-term relationship between …
Instagram Issues: Why Professional Sports Leagues Need To Reconsider How Photography And Copyrights Are Governed, Anthony Studnicka
Instagram Issues: Why Professional Sports Leagues Need To Reconsider How Photography And Copyrights Are Governed, Anthony Studnicka
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
Playing sports is not the only way professional athletes generate income. In recent years, athletes have taken a deliberate approach towards building their personal brands to increase the value of their potential marketing and endorsement opportunities. The more known, liked, and marketable an athlete is, the greater their income potential.
Athletes can increase their marketability by eliciting and creating positive interactions with fans on social media. For example, when LeBron James decides to take to Instagram and post a photograph, many fans will view it and it will garner significant engagement. However, can LeBron post whatever image of himself he …

Insights From Snowboard Pedagogy For The Legal Studies Instructor, Jennifer S. Anderson, David W. Read, Konrad S. Lee, John Linford
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
This paper intends to inform and avail instructors of pedagogical approaches proven effective in winter sports environments, specifically in the sport of snowboarding, that we suggest may be particularly effective in teaching business law to non-law students in undergraduate business programs. We join other scholars in examining the approach to teaching business law to non-law students in an effort to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to manage the “dynamic and untidy” legal issues that business professionals deal with, while mitigating the difficult and confusing subject matter and pedagogy associated with business law courses. Broadly speaking, teaching requires the acquisition …

The Emergence Of Wearable Technology And The Legal Implications For Athletes, Teams, Leagues And Other Sports Organizations Across Amateur And Professional Athletics, Anthony Studnicka
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
The year was 1998. The Chicago Bulls were playing in Game 6 of the NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz. Michael Jordan was wearing his iconic, bright, red number 23 Bulls jersey. Jordan had led the Bulls to their third consecutive finals appearance, pursuing their sixth NBA Championship title of the decade. However, this was not his fight alone, as his teammates were fighting merely to get on the court. Ron Harper was playing while sick, and Toni Kukoc was battling fatigue. Another teammate and future Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen was playing through an injury. The extent of the …
Convergence And Divergence In Stadium Ownership Structures, Robert Sroka
Convergence And Divergence In Stadium Ownership Structures, Robert Sroka
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
In the broader business law literature, much has been written on the supposed convergence trend of corporate governance practices. Yet this academic discussion has barely extended to the professional sports context and in the instances where professional sports governance has been at issue, stadiums and stadium ownership have not been the subject of analysis. With stadium construction and renovation projects regularly running into the hundreds of millions or billions of dollars, and ongoing stadium operations and debt repayments on such facilities often exceeding tens of millions each year, stadium governance is a significant aspect of business and corporate governance worth …

The Larry Nassar Nightmare: Athletic Organizational Failures To Address Sexual Assault Allegations And A Call For Corrective Action, Heather Udowitch
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
Lawrence (Larry) Nassar, a once credible, respected physician – who treated thousands of premiere athletes – is now known as a one of the most infamous individuals in American sports history. While building his professorial career as a doctor with USA Gymnastics (USAG), Michigan State University (MSU), and the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), Nassar was actually sexually assaulting hundreds of individuals under the guise of medical treatment. USAG, MSU, and the USOC all contributed to the flawed system that refused to listen to the athletes who reported Nassar in addition to help him maintain his status. Through the silence …

The Importance Of Ncaa Student-Athletes' Financial Literacy And Mental Health In Anticipation Of The Historic Fair Pay To Play Act, R.J. Curington
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
Sports fans praise athletic abilities and sensational games, especially during championship play. However, extreme criticism and judgment arises when athletes fall into financial and/or mental pitfalls after college. We all have heard horror stories of student-athletes being exploited by outside influences that result in suspensions to the student-athlete and even penalties on their athletic program. The exploitation of the nation’s top student-athletes can even begin in the early stages of high-school. These young student-athletes, who may not have the financial resources or the proper guidance, are often misled by self-interested outside sources. Dreams of financial stability are thought to be …

Addressing Human Trafficking In The Context Of Major League Baseball And The Cuban Baseball Federation, Sarah Hanlon
Addressing Human Trafficking In The Context Of Major League Baseball And The Cuban Baseball Federation, Sarah Hanlon
DePaul Journal of Sports Law
In 2018, Major League Baseball (“MLB”) and the Cuban Baseball Federation (Federación Cubana de Béisbol, “FCB”) reached a historic agreement. The agreement sought to protect Cuban baseball players wishing to play in the United States. Under the agreement, Cuban players would no longer have to denounce their allegiance to Cuba or find alternative and often risky and dangerous ways to enter the United States. The agreement was symbolic of an easing of tensions between the United States and Cuba. Unfortunately, the agreement was short-lived after the Trump administration began reinvigorating stricter policies from the past with Cuba. This Note reviews …
