Baseball attorney Scott Boras will be speaking at the ARC ballroom Monday at 3:30 p.m in an event titled “Negotiating the Largest Contracts in Sports History.”
Boras’ current clients include Alex Rodriguez, Barry Bonds, Barry Zito and his more recent addition Prince Fielder. Due to his reputation for netting his clients the most lucrative contracts possible, Boras was named “the most influential non-player in the last 25 years” by Baseball America.
The seminar is being presented by the UC Davis School of Law’s Entertainment and Sports Law Society.
“We wanted to go after the big fish and make sure that UC Davis was known not only as a public-interest school, but also a school that’s known for other things, such as sports law and entertainment law,” said Co-Chair of the Entertainment and Sports Law Society Scott Judson. “There’s no bigger fish in the sports world than Scott Boras.”
Boras has a Northern California connection, as he was raised in Elk Grove, Calif. and played baseball in Pacific.
Boras’ talk will be followed by a Q&A session.
The event is free and public, but Judson expects the Ballroom to be full and RSVPs are encouraged.

This looks like it will be an awesome event!
