On this episode, I'm joined by one of the most successful and prolific sports economists in the world, Dr. Dan Rascher. Dan has served as an economic expert for the plaintiffs in pretty much every major antitrust suit against the NCAA over the last two decades, including the ongoing House case and the Alston case that went all the way to the Supreme Court. Dan is also one of the experts in the ongoing antitrust lawsuit challenging the NFL Sunday Ticket package. Dan joins me to talk about these ongoing cases, to break down the big sports law and economics issues, and talks about how you-- yes, you--can carve out a career as a sports economist...

The National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) Players Association and the NWSL entered into a historic new collective bargaining agreement that might be the "most significant paradigm shift in the history of professional sports." Among other things, the new CBA eliminates the player draft, allows all players to become free agents when their contract expires and prohibits player trades without the player's permission. What does it mean for the future of women's professional soccer, and can a US sports league survive without a draft? Meghann Burke, the Executive Director the NWSL Players Association joins the pod to break it all down.

The proposed House settlement will provide billions of dollars of benefits for current, future, and (some) former college athletes, but it provides no compensation for athletes who played before 2016. Two new lawsuits seek to change that by arguing that the NCAA owes compensation to all college athletes who continue to appear in NCAA highlights, videos, and ads on television broadcasts and NCAA.com. If successful, these lawsuits could open the door to thousands of athletes across several decades receiving NIL compensation. To help break it all down, I'm joined by the lead plaintiff's lawyer on these cases, Elliot Abrams, Partner at Cheshire Parker.
