What is sports law…
Sports Law is everything. People have this weird connotation about sports law that think it is its own thing. But in reality, it covers every aspect of the law. Contracts, civil, criminal, PR, Business creation, Family Law, etc.Main Topic for Today and Highlights
- Fiduciary Duties
- Principle and agent (law but also in other relationships)
- Most athletes have agents
- Some have the old school mentality of no time for agents, they are a waste of space, just negotiate yourself. (Bruce Arians, Cincinnati Bengals Owner)
- 2 big examples recently of sports agents
- Tyreke Hill represented by Drew Rosenhaus
- Devonte Parker represented by Jimmy Gould
