Upcoming Oregon Law Review Symposium on the NCAA in Crisis

I'm honored to be participating in the upcoming Oregon Law Review symposium titled NCAA in Crisis: The Crossroads of Intercollegiate Sports.  The topic couldn't be more timely.  The symposium will be held on Friday April 11.

Warren Zola and I will be giving the introduction to the symposium (to be delivered by Warren).

Excellent work by Dustin Littrell, the Editor-in-Chief of the Oregon Law Review, and Kristina Cauthorn, OLR's Symposium Editor, in organizing the event, developing the panels and assembling an outstanding group of speakers.

Here is more info:

Lee Barlow Giustina Ballroom, Ford Alumni Center

Oregon Law Review's spring symposium, The NCAA in Crisis: the Crossroads of Intercollegiate Sports, will provide a forum for a comprehensive inquiry into questions regarding the current state of NCAA regulations and enforcement, and an analysis of Ed O'Bannon v. NCAA and its potential implications on amateurism, anti-trust law, the gaming industry, and possible legislature involvement. Through this inquiry, Oregon Law Review hopes to formulate and analyze possible solutions to the NCAA's current issue: how does the NCAA amend its regulatory and enforcement mechanisms to create a more efficient, effective, and fair organization?
Here is the schedule:
