Second Edition is now out! The book offers annotated exchanges to show what an attorney might do (or not want to do) while interviewing a client. Part 5 is new & focuses on ways that the #NextGen bar exam may assess interviewing & client counseling skills. @WestAcademic

Thrilled to make this announcement…
we wrote the book on College Sports Law!

When I was in law school, I leaned very heavily on the Nutshell Series by @WestAcademic so it was incredibly exciting to be asked to write the first ever “College Sports Law in a Nutshell” book alongside my co-author William W. Berry III, the sports law professor at Ole Miss Law.

As a first edition, we took the time to cover the full legal history of college sports all the way to the recent developments of sports gambling, conference realignment, the NIL era and House v. NCAA. This was a labor of love that took several months (and many updates as the landscape changed) and was a true collaborative effort. From my end, this could not have been done without the contributions of my team of sports law students, Brandon Blumer, Duncan Hubbard, J.D., Ben Radisch, Robert Ricigliano, & Ethan Zucker along with the support of West, particularly Danny Buteyn who had the great idea for the book in the first place.

With all that has gone on in college sports and specifically NIL, we think this is the perfect time for its release. The book will be used in my sports law classes and has already been ordered by some of my fellow sports law professors across the country. If you’re interested in a copy for your yourself or your students I’ve put the link below. I’m hoping the book can be a foundational piece to the space moving forward.

Great example of an antitrust agreement/compromise for a M&A textbook that @carlissc & I are writing which will be focused on oil & gas deals and drafting M&A agreements. Stay tuned for our textbook to be published by @WestAcademic!

Excited to hold the new edition. Updated including a brand new chapter on noncompetes and an Amazon-like monopolization case. Short thread below to explain how I’ve used it and how other #antitrust profs can do so too.

🧑🏽‍⚖️ ⚖️ How should we interpret legal texts? These two books work well together, offering an overview of methods and objectives in interpreting law, both ordinary and constitutional.
