To Any Lawyer On This Board: Do You Agree With This Law Professor's Advice?

From a strictly legal perspective, yes I generally agree with what he says.

From a practical, pragmatic advise to the average citizen in an average citizen/law enforcement encounter perspective, not so much.

Btw, when I was in private criminal defense the back of my business card was similar but a little more detailed than his.

Whoa whoa Whoa! Wait a dayum minute. If I'm selling drugs, and I suspect someone is a cop, if I ask them if they're a cop, the law says they have to tell me the truth. This guy says cops don't have to tell the truth. Who's lying here?

I'm going to do the exact opposite of what this perfesser of laws said. He actually thinks cops can lie!!!!!!

Put that in my pipe and let me smoke it.
 
To be certain, the police can lie to you all they want when questioning/interrogating you. That's long been settled, in the SCOTUS ruling of Frazier v Cupp, 394 U.S. 731 (1969).

What I find most interesting about this? They guy was/is? teaching law at Regent, which is the most conservative law school in the country by most accounts. (It's the "rebranded" law school formerly of Oral Roberts Univ. run by Pat Robertson.) When even the ultra-right is recognizing the issues/problems for even innocent people interacting with the police, that says a lot to me.
