Notre Dame Hit with NLRB Charge by College Basketball Players Association
Apr 18, 2024, 09:02 PM
An unfair labor practice charge has been filed against Notre Dame University with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), alleging the misclassification of its athletes as 'student-athletes' rather than employees. This charge, brought by the College Basketball Players Association and similar to previous complaints against USC, the Pac-12, and the NCAA, contends that Notre Dame has denied athletes proper employment rights. The case has been filed in the Indianapolis NLRB office and involves all Notre Dame athletes. This filing is part of a broader series of legal challenges facing the NCAA, including cases over athlete minimum wage, billions in NIL/Alston backpay, and restrictions on transfers and NIL.
