Arizona Goes After Kalshi, Alabama Star Busted, Point Shaving Plea, Nebraska's NIL War, and White House Roundtable Fallout
Friday, 20 March, 2026
On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) and Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) are back for a March Madness edition packed with stories spanning prediction markets, college basketball, the White House, and NIL enforcement.The episode opens with Kalshi — and the escalating legal war between prediction markets and the states. Dan and Mike break down Arizona's unprecedented 20-count criminal complaint, the Ohio federal court ruling, the wave of cease and desist letters from 11 states, and why a Trump-appointed judge denied Kalshi's attempt to block enforcement. They explain the CFTC preemption argument, why FanDuel and DraftKings have every reason to root against Kalshi, and why this is shaping up to be the most significant sports wagering case since Murphy v. NCAA.From there, the duo covers the arrest of Alabama star Aden Holloway — four days before the Crimson Tide's tournament opener — on two felony drug charges. Dan and Mike break down why 2.1 pounds matters more than it sounds, the Fourth Amendment questions surrounding the apartment search, the Miranda moment everyone is talking about, and what it means that Alabama faded hard without him on the court.Dan and Mike then pivot to the point shaving scandal, where the first guilty plea has landed. Jalen Smith — identified as the linchpin of a scheme involving 39 players across 17 Division I programs — pleaded guilty to wire fraud, bribery, and conspiracy. Dan and Mike break down what his cooperation could mean for the players still under investigation and whether the NCAA has any real teeth left on gambling infractions.Dan and Mike then tackle the White House "Saving College Sports" Roundtable — 50 commissioners, ADs, and politicians in the East Room, zero athletes invited — and the executive order Trump promised in one week that has yet to materialize.The episode closes with a deep dive into the Nebraska NIL arbitration — the first major challenge to the College Sports Commission's authority — where 18 Cornhusker football players are fighting to recover over $1 million in rejected NIL deals. Dan and Mike explain the "warehousing" theory, why a 15-person startup regulator is already overwhelmed, and what a Nebraska state statute could mean for CSC enforcement nationwide.Let us know your thoughts!***Have a topic you want to write about?
