This document discusses the duties of sports agents to athletes and the statutory regulations that govern sports agents. It argues that while laws like SPARTA and the UAAA have helped protect student-athletes, statutory regulations do not adequately enforce agents' duties to all athletes or provide athletes with sufficient power to protect themselves. It recommends that student-athletes should have a statutory right to enforce sports agents' duties. Additionally, all sports agents should be required to be licensed under a federal registration system, and a self-regulatory commission should help address unscrupulous agents.
