My guest on this episode of Nobody’s Safe w/Brady Laber is Dustin Maguire. Dustin was the leading scorer for the NKU Norse on its 2009 GLVC Conference Tournament championship team and is now an attorney that has become the foremost authority on the Name, Image and Likeness movement for college athletes. Dustin transferred into NKU after two seasons at St. Louis University. After a coaching change he was told that his scholarship would not be renewed and he was forced transfer out of the program. He lands at Division-II Northern Kentucky University which is a program that embraced welcoming Division-I transfers looking for a new opportunity. The 2008-09 season gets off to an exciting start as NKU opens a brand new state-of-the-art on-campus arena with an exhibition game against the University of Louisville Cardinals. Dustin was on fire leading all scorers with 33 points, hitting nine 3-point shots in the process. NKU’s team that year was loaded with a great mix of transfers and veteran players within the program. The team was nationally ranked all season and win a share of the GLVC Eastern Division. The Norse travel to Southern Indiana for the GLVC Conference Tournament. NKU ends up winning the tournament earning head coach Dave Bezold his 100th career win in the championship game victory. Dustin has a great season leading the team in scoring and earning 2nd-team All-GLVC honors. He had a lot of momentum going into the next season but a back injury suffered during the conference tournament slowed him down. Despite the injury Dustin was voted a preseason All-American. He looks back fondly on a game against Christian Brothers University where he hits a game winning shot before the buzzer. Unfortunately, the back injury forces him to shut it down and his season ends prematurely. He would go through two back surgeries to help fix his bulging disks but a different medical condition turns out to be more serious. While recovering from surgery, he is diagnosed with testicular cancer. After surgery for the original cancer diagnosis, Dustin is ready to complete his comeback. Unfortunately, he gets word that the cancer has moved to his lymph nodes. After successful treatment Dustin is deemed cancer free in 2010. With his playing career now finished, Dustin pursues his law degree at NKU’s Chase School of Law. Norse head coach Dave Bezold puts Dustin on scholarship as a student assistant coach while he is studying for his degree. He was on the coaching staff during NKU’s transition into Division-I. Ultimately, Dustin earns his law degree and passes the bar exam deciding to open his own law practice near his hometown of Edwardsville, Illinois. His practice is based in family law but he has always had a passion for athletes rights. This comes from his personal experiences as a player that was forced to transfer and as a player that went through injuries during his playing career. The Ed O’Bannon lawsuit was also very instrumental in Dustin’s path becasue his name, image and likeness was used in the EA Sports video game depicting him during his time at St. Louis University. We talk about a host of subjects such a name, image and likeness but also the transfer portal and expanding the rights for the college athlete. Dustin has become the foremost authority on NIL and has created and website as a resource to help college athletes in this subject.

Host Steven Maggi chats with the author of "11th Heaven" Rob Miech about Ed O'Bannon and the 1995 national basketball champions UCLA... Experience the excitement and energy of Las Vegas each weekend on VEGAS NEVER SLEEPS with Steven Maggi.
Eleven years ago, Ed O’Bannon filed his lawsuit against the NCAA that originally got the ball rolling. On Wednesday, the Board of Governors finally expressed support for recommended rule changes that would allow college athletes to be compensated for their name, image and likeness. How will these sweeping changes alter the landscape of collegiate sports? Will the rich keep getting richer? (00:33)On Thursday, SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey joined 1010 XL Sports Radio in Jacksonville to talk about the future of the football season. “If a couple programs aren't able [to kick off in the fall], does that stop everyone? I'm not sure it does,” Sankey insinuated. Are individual conferences really willing to break off and stage their own season? If so, what would that season look like and how would it affect college football in the long run? (36:21)Pat, Pete and Dan also delve into the weird Pentagon videos proving the existence of UFOs, the terrifying potato shortage happening across the globe, and Kentucky Derby memories from over the years.

After years of living in the shadow of John Wooden’s dynasty, UCLA returned to glory with their first national championship in twenty years by beating Arkansas in 1995. The Bruins needed one of the greatest buzzer-beaters in NCAA history - that was aided by a critical mistake - the surprise help of two freshmen, and the leadership of Ed O’Bannon, who became famous for much different reasons after his playing days. We also get into why UCLA didn’t become another dynasty after that title - and it all had to do with a dinner and an over-reaction.

They break down the pro’s and con’s of this move and discuss the insane amount of revenue that Universities make from NCAA sports and how well paid their coaches are. Also, Matt and Tony dive into some of the history of college athletes getting treated poorly and how video game giant EA Sports was using student athletes in it's games without compensation. Highlights: “You cant trust a man with a ton of hair gel” Student athletes making money through endorsements Student athletes getting injured in the 1950’s Ed O’ Bannon vs. EA Sports Nick Saban’s 11 million dollar salary Judge Wilkin rules in favor of college athletes The Takeaway – There will be many people for and against college athletes getting paid. Expect to see a lot of push back from the universities, unless they get their cut of the money.

Dan Graziano gives the latest updates on Antonio Brown and Vontaze Burfict and Ed O'Bannon discusses the Fair Pay to Play Act.
California Governor Gavin Newsom just signed the Fair Pay for Play Act into law in California. We are resurfacing an interview with Ed O'Bannon, one of the first athletes to challenge NCAA rules on compensating athletes. The original interview aired in March 2018.
Eric talks with Ed O’Bannon, a former professional basketball player whose landmark lawsuit forced a national conversation on whether the NCAA should pay college athletes. It’s a conversation with massive implications for the thousands of unpaid Black athletes whose work makes millions of dollars for their colleges. Strangely, all this started with a video game.

Years from now, the college sports world will look back upon today as perhaps the most significant time in its history. It is a time of palatial prosperity for the National Collegiate Athletic Association; unprecedented profits and popularity have catapulted its product to the vanguard of American sports. But it seems the only thing that can keep up with the NCAA’s penchant for power is its magnetism for ethical imbroglio and scandal. While concord is becoming increasingly difficult to find within the organization, nearly everyone inside seems to harmoniously agree that change, in some scope, is coming. But what that change will look like seems to be the million – or more appropriately, multi-billion – dollar question. The NCAA is reportedly projected to rake in over $900 million in revenue this year, thanks almost entirely to prodigious television contracts and other media rights payments, and that number is expected to climb to over $2 billion by 2020. Burgeoning outrage that is beginning to smother the brand clearly isn’t stemming from the amount of money being made, but rather from how it’s being allocated. The athletes, or as the NCAA would swiftly correct you to say, “student-athletes,” are being excluded from the ever-expanding pot of gold. The NCAA has always defended not paying players because they receive scholarships instead. But that rule was instated before ESPN and the internet made college sports (and all others) into colossal cash machines. Now, football and men’s basketball have become such potent revenue generators that many are starting to wonder why a small group of predominantly old, rich white guys from the south are collecting all the treasure when a far larger group of predominantly African-American young men spend all day digging for it – and why that thought creates a disconcerting feeling of history repeating itself. Of course, NCAA President Mark Emmert and his clan of athletic directors and college presidents are against “pay-for-play,” since that money would likely come from their own pockets. But the salaries of the aforementioned regime, along with those of the coaches, continue to dramatically ascend. Last season 70 football coaches made over $1 million, 50 made over $2 million, and 25 made over $3 million. In 39 states, the highest paid state employee is a football or basketball coach, and college presidents wear the crown in five of the remaining 11 states. Emmert himself makes $1.6 million. Directly paying players to compete, many argue, turns the NCAA into a semi-professional league. But as the television contracts, merchandise sales, and administrator salaries keep swelling, how can the athletes, those most responsible for all the income and those risking their own futures the most, not get a piece of the pie? In former NCAA President Walter Byers’ book Unsportsmanlike Conduct: Exploiting College Athletes, he writes, “Today the NCAA Presidents Commission is…firmly committed to the belief that the enormous proceeds from college games belong to the overseers and supervisors. The plantation workers performing in the arena may only receive those benefits authorized by the overseers.” Andrew Zimablist argues in Unpaid Professionals the NCAA coined the term “student-athlete” simply so they could ostracize them from earnings and avoid potential lawsuits. The NCAA polity doesn’t just refuse to share, but also won’t allow athletes to beget money from their personal brands. Former UCLA basketball star Ed O’Bannon brought a class-action lawsuit against the NCAA with numerous other former athletes, alleging the NCAA shouldn’t be allowed to directly profit from player likeness on jerseys, in video games and elsewhere. Recently, a US District Judge ruled that players could in fact challenge NCAA rules that “prohibit compensation beyond the value of their athletic scholarships.” However, she denied their pursuit of billions of dollars of lost revenue from the past, only allowing players to sue for damages individually. Earlier this season, the NCAA alleged Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel had sold his own autograph, and responded by suspending him for half a game. Yet in years past, similar or even lesser offenders received far more substantial penalties (Part II of this story will further explore the NCAA’s laughable enforcement record). Meanwhile, the NCAA online store continued to sell Manziel’s jersey until ESPN analyst Jay Bilas tweeted in indignation, and jersey sales were immediately removed from the site. The NCAA’s egregious and widening wealth disparity, which has alarming similarities to the rest of the world, has long since crossed the line of being a picketing cry for justice by ignorant idealists. There seems to be an ostensible business opportunity to disrupt the carefully guided cash flow that is passing by those who are creating it. History has taught us this scenario is unlikely to last long; a flame added to those portentous ingredients is a recipe for revolution. As if all of the above weren’t enough, redistribution of wealth isn’t the only looming threat along the treacherous path that the NCAA has already begun to face. The NCAA is an organization long marred with scandal, corruption, incompetence and hypocrisy. Part II will take a cavernous dive into the off-the-field troubles that have shattered the NCAA’s credibility, thus weakening its legs as it prepares for its tenuous future. Hence the manifest importance of the present for the NCAA. Even Emmert acknowledged, “It seems to be a bit of a historic moment.” He has apparently come to realize the hard Darwinian truth: a significant upheaval of college sports as we know it is indeed on the horizon, if it is to survive. The NCAA, which declined to comment on this story, has never been more embattled but similarly never more profitable. The road ahead for the NCAA, no matter where it leads, will be the toughest one yet.

In a recent landmark case, my guest went up against the multi-billion dollar powerhouse otherwise known as the NCAA. Many companies have made truckloads of money off of the likeness of college basketball and football players, while the players themselves gained nothing, due to NCAA rules. In 2014, a judge ruled that those rules violated anti-trust laws, and ruled in favor of my guest, former UCLA star, NBA player and European player, Ed O'Bannon. What's is like to go up against an organization with seemingly bottomless pockets? A strong resolve, a passion for what's right and the perseverance to finish the race, no matter how long it takes! From HS All-American to a torn ACL 6 days before his Bruins debut, O'Bannon talks about the mindset from major injuries, his meteoric rise to an NCAA Championship, and how his NBA dreams took a different path than most. Join me for this very candid and informative interview from the man that fought the giant...and won! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/les-norman/support

In less than a year on the job at Ole Miss, Ross Bjork has made a name for himself as its athletic director. His football coach, Hugh Freeze, signed the No. 1 recruit in the nation, defensive end Robert Nkemdiche, only a few months after the team went 7-6 in 2012 compared to a 2-10 in 2011. Bjork details his ideas on leadership during times of highs and lows in an athletic department and talks about some of the major issues facing college athletics, especially those in the Southeastern Conference; particularly the Ed O'Bannon lawsuit with its financial ramifications looming over the NCAA's operations, whether the BCS should split the haves from the haves-nots in several divisions, and how to properly maintain prevent fan expectations from expectations as an athletic director with the reality of the job ahead. Also discussed is Bjork's twitter strategy, why he hasn't logged into his LinkedIn account in over 5 years, the lost art of handwritten notes, and the best practices of networking in the world of college athletics.
