uNILateral Decisions: The Video Game That Changed College Sports — O'Bannon v. NCAA

The transformation of college athletics didn’t happen overnight. Years before NIL became a household term, another landmark lawsuit challenged the NCAA’s definition of amateurism, and forced the industry to confront a difficult question: should college athletes be compensated for the use of their name, image, and likeness? In this episode of uNILateral Decisions, Dominic Shelden is joined by former college athletics administrators Joe Nickell and Mike Walsh, along with sports law expert and professor Sam Ehrlich, to examine the 2014–15 case of O’Bannon vs. NCAA. What began with a familiar part of many fans’ childhoods, college sports video games, quickly evolved into one of the most influential legal battles in NCAA history. The case challenged the NCAA’s use of player likenesses and laid important groundwork for the NIL era that followed. Before today’s landscape of NIL deals, transfer rules, and athlete compensation, there was O’Bannon. And it helped push college sports one step closer to the modern era.
