MLB/UFC Betting , Brian Kelly $53M LSU Lawsuit, Big Ten Private Equity, and Interview w/ Kasey Hughes (Columbus Blue Jackets)
Tuesday, 11 November, 2025
On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) , Tarun Sharma (@tksharmalaw), Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) AND Bryce Goodwyn (@BryceGoodwyn) return with a packed house to discuss some of the latest in our sports law world. First on the docket is the ongoing MLB betting investigations, focusing on the fallout from Emmanuel Clase’s suspension and what it reveals about the league’s approach to integrity enforcement. Dan walks us through how MLB’s monitoring systems flagged unusual activity and how that aligns with emerging federal probes into illegal wagering networks across professional leagues and organizations like UFC. Mike analyzes the uneven disciplinary standards between players and team personnel, while Tarun believes the best course of action is to make an example out of the situation and ban the players for life. What do you think?Next, the discussion shifts to Brian Kelly’s firing at LSU, a dispute that has quickly escalated into one of the most explosive buyout battles in recent college football history. Dan and Tarun explain the core of LSU’s “for cause” argument and how it looks as well as its impact after initial firing for performance. At least that's what they initially had stated. It all seemingly contrasts with Kelly’s contractual guarantees, breaking down the potential financial exposure — reportedly over $53 million. Kelly has sued, and we are underway for a significant precedent-setting case here in college coaching in the new era. From there, the team turns to the Big Ten’s private equity proposal, dissecting reports of a $2.4 billion capital deal that would give an outside investor a stake in Big Ten Enterprises. Tarun outlines the mechanics of the proposed structure, while the group shares whether schools like Ohio State and Penn State are in and why schools like Michigan and USC might not be. Finally, Mikayla Yarwood, regional representative for the Conduct Detrimental Law Student Board, sits down with NHL legal fellow Kasey Hughes, who shares insights into life inside a professional sports front office. The conversation covers contract drafting, player filings, sponsorship deal review, and the transition from law school to the industry side of sports law. Kasey offers practical advice for aspiring attorneys entering team or league offices.
