The Drake group is composed of many people who have worked in Athletics or higher education.
They go over a great deal of what is wrong in sports at various levels, mostly the NCAA.
My objective teaching this class is for you to question and learn from a variety of sources.

Since 1909, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has been the primary voice and largest national athletics governance association for four-year colleges and universities in the United States. Following decades of enormous legal fees challenging rules restraining college athlete employment, facing hundreds of concussion-related lawsuits, and then suffering an adverse June 2022 Alston U.S. Supreme Court decision that eviscerated its college athlete eligibility system built on control through use of "amateur status" regulations, the organization appeared to freeze based on fear of future litigation. Within six months, the NCAA convened a "Constitution Committee" and at its January 2022 NCAA convention, members voted to move away from a national governance model of college sports and begin a transition to rule-making and enforcement by competitive division. The result will be a much different competitive and regulatory landscape. For all of us who are committed to continuing the good that college athletics does for athlete personal development and the excitement and pride it brings to campus, community, and alumni, there is a need to understand this new economic and governance structure. Will it be capable of solving issues including, academic integrity, athlete health, safety and well-being, gender inequities and other harms to participants and higher education? | | See recordings of webinars you missed:
