NCAA’S OPPOSITION TO ADMISSION OF EXHIBITS 2111 AND 2165
1
The NCAA respectfully requests that the Court deny admission of PX 2111 and 2165.
2
PX 2111, which is a draft broadcast agreement between Southeastern Conference and
3 Jefferson-Pilot Sports Inc., dated July 27, 1999, is inadmissible hearsay and irrelevant because
4 there is no indication that the parties reached final agreement as to these terms. See, e.g.,
5 Pesaplastic, C.A. v. Cincinnati Milacron Co., 750 F.2d 1516, 1524 (11th Cir. 1985) (district court
6 appropriately exercised discretion in declining to admit unexecuted contract). And, PX 2165
7 pertains to telecast rights for the 2008-2009 through 2015-2016 academic years and thus is not the
8 long form agreement of PX 2117, which is a telecast agreement between The Big Twelve
9 Conference, ABC, ESPN, ESPN Regional Television for the 2000-2001 through 2007-2008
10 academic years.
11
Because PX 2111 and 2165 were submitted two weeks after the close of trial, see Dkt. No.
12 281 at 5 n.9, and without a sponsoring witness to provide context, and because these exhibits are
13 not executed long form versions of PX 2110 and 2117 contemplated by this Court’s July 8, 2014
14 Order, Dkt. No. 278, APs’ request to admit PX 2111 and 2165 should be denied as untimely. See,
15 e.g., Purex Corp. v. Procter & Gamble Co., 664 F.2d 1105, 1109 (9th Cir. 1981).
