NCAA Title IX Guidance, Xavier Lucas Transfer Saga, Kyren Lacy, & Drake Lawsuit Filed
On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) is joined by Tarun Sharma (@tksharmalaw) and Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) to discuss the current state of NCAA guidelines or lack thereof... as well as an unfortunate tragedy stemming from an LSU WR, before getting into the Drake lawsuit and much more... The Department of Education put a memo out on how Title IX applies to NIL compensation that could reshape college athletes' pay and timeline. Schools must now ensure gender equity in NIL payments provided directly by institutions, raising questions about revenue-sharing models and compliance challenges. Former Wisconsin defensive back Xavier Lucas made headlines by enrolling at Miami without entering the transfer portal, bypassing institutional roadblocks. This unprecedented move has raised concerns about the effectiveness of the transfer portal and institutional control over athlete mobility. Former LSU wide receiver Kyren Lacy faces charges of negligent homicide and felony hit-and-run after a tragic car accident in Louisiana. The legal ramifications could severely impact his NFL Draft hopes, shedding light on how legal troubles intersect with professional opportunities. Drake has filed a defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group, accusing the label of prioritizing profits over his reputation by promoting Kendrick Lamar's diss track “Not Like Us.” The case delves into streaming manipulation, defamation law, and the balance between creative freedom and legal accountability in the music industry. Dan is sick and there are plenty of recommendations from the trio for what to watch for this week... *** Have a topic you want to write about?
