College athletes should be compensated fairly for their name, image, and likeness. But college sports also needs basic rules. We can protect NIL, stop the chaos, and make sure student-athletes are actually getting an education. It’s time to advance the Protect College Sports Act.

President Trump is exactly right: college sports are in turmoil. My Protect College Sports Act is the bipartisan solution President Trump supports. It ends the chaos, protects women's and Olympic sports, and preserves opportunities for student athletes nationwide. We have the Southeastern Conference and Big Ten Conference on board. Now the Senate should pass it.

The Protect College Sports Act is designed to protect our student athletes. Sports create an opportunity for young men and women to grow in their athletic abilities on an elite level, while fostering teamwork and leadership skills to prepare them for their future. We must ensure that student athletes receive the best opportunities possible to succeed both in and out of the classroom.

You cannot have 28-year-olds playing college sports for six or seven years. Right now, athletes have multiple extra years of eligibility, former pros are returning to college, and the transfer portal has become chaos. Our bipartisan bill restores common sense: five years of eligibility, one free transfer, and clear rules that protect athletes while preserving competition.

Female college athletes deserve to play knowing that their programs will not be cut and that they have the ability to profit on their NIL. With the majority of funds going towards the high payouts of popular men’s sports, there’s less room for women’s programs to grow. The Protect College Sports Act helps shrink the gap—generating dedicated revenue to women’s programs, preventing the elimination of sports, and protecting scholarships and academics.

If Congress fails to act, college sports could become a mini-NFL: 30 to 50 schools with real programs and everyone else left behind. That would be tragic for fans, schools, and the more than 500,000 student-athletes competing across America. College sports bring us together, but more importantly, they give young men and women a path to education and a brighter future.

🚨 COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS ON THE BRINK Unlimited transfers. 27-year-olds competing against 17-year-olds. Coaches bailing mid-season for bigger paychecks. Schools hemorrhaging money. This isn’t sustainable. Half a million student-athletes are at risk. Football subsidizes almost every other sport. When the money runs out, women’s tennis, Olympic sports, and athletic scholarships start disappearing. Senator Eric Schmitt’s Protect College Sports Act brings some order: • 5-year eligibility window • One free transfer • Hard cap so the system doesn’t explode • No mid-season coach jumps (the Lane Kiffin rule) • Ability for conferences to pool media rights to protect non-revenue sports Even Nick Saban saw this coming. President Trump is behind it. It’s bipartisan. College athletics is uniquely American. We’re about to lose it if Congress doesn’t act.

Colleges are set to give $2.8 billion over the next 10 years to their student athletes through revenue sharing and will include “back pay” to student athletes from as far back as 2016. The “back pay” SHOULD GO BACK AT LEAST 25 YEARS because athletes like Tim Tebow, Breanna Stewart, Diana Taurasi and Tyrann Mathieu helped make the brands of Florida, UCONN and LSU as renowned as they are today and must watch TV. Baylor made over half a billion dollars off the Heisman Trophy. I made Zero. There are far more names that had a massive impact all across college sports that missed out on NIL and revenue sharing. Let’s do right by them.

College Sports, a Great American Institution that produces our many Athletes, Leaders, and Olympic Dominance, is a total “mess,” and everyone is saying that it must be fixed. After unending lawsuits and crazed rulings, there are virtually no limits anymore, and soon most Colleges won't have Sports because each and every one of them will be bankrupt, never to be heard from again. Women's Sports, and the Olympics, itself, are in the most danger from this catastrophic situation. College Sports are turning into Pro Sports, except with absolutely no rules, a result no one wants. University Presidents, Conference Commissioners, Student-Athletes, Coaches, and Athletic Directors all complained to me that it has become a disaster, after years of no action, and that Schools were losing Hundreds of Millions of Dollars a year. They compared it to a freight train that can’t be stopped! That is why, a few months ago, I convened a Roundtable bringing together a World-Class Team of some of the best Sports Executives, Student-Athletes, and Political Leaders in our Country. The goal was to find a Bipartisan solution to fix the problem. Based on these meetings and the expertise of the Leading Authorities, I signed an Executive Order, but I always said that the best solution was to get a Bipartisan Act of Congress to my desk in order to save a long and embarrassing ROAD THROUGH HELL for these Institutions. I’d like to thank Senators Ted Cruz, Eric Schmitt, Maria Cantwell, and Chris Coons, among others, for introducing the Protect College Sports Act. This Law resolves many of the most urgent issues challenging our Universities and Student-Athletes, stops the chaos and, most importantly, it may be the last chance to save College Sports, and Colleges themselves, before it's too late. The House has worked long and hard on this issue as well, and I am very grateful to Speaker Mike Johnson and Leader Steve Scalise for their work to fix this very major problem. I urge the House and Senate to come together to pass a final Bipartisan Law, that I can sign this summer, that reflects the views and input of both Chambers. WE HAVE TO SAVE COLLEGE SPORTS! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J.

Conservative activist Riley Gaines asked White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt whether the Trump administration would take action against states that lack protections for women’s sports if the Supreme Court rules to uphold state bans on transgender athletes. “Absolutely,” Leavitt said, adding that the Trump administration has already taken action and would continue to do so. She says the president’s policy is to protect women’s sports and private spaces. The two transgender student athletes who brought the cases to the Supreme Court argued that laws in their states violate the Constitution's guarantee of equal protection and Title IX, the landmark law that prohibits sex discrimination in education programs. They say the bans categorically exclude all transgender girls and women from school sports altogether, and treat them worse than their peers.

College football's most decorated head coach Nick Saban spoke at the White House on Friday at a college sports roundtable hosted by President Trump. Saban called on lawmakers to fix issues he has seen at the collegiate level, where Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals have turned the focus away from education. "How much does anybody talk about getting an education anymore? Nobody talks about it at all, which is the most important thing any of these student athletes can do in terms of enhancing their future."

The NCAA is bracing for “blind transfers,” where a player transfers without ever entering the portal. 🤯 👉 With the spring portal window gone, the NCAA expects more of these moves and is discussing major penalties for schools that take them, including a 6-game head coach suspension, fines tied to the football budget, and loss of roster spots. But how can these penalties be enforced when the current contracts do not employ players to be athletes? They are just NIL deals… 🤷‍♂️ Thats’s why at Athletes.org we’re building the first players association for college athletes, because the only way to fix this is to give the athletes the seat at the table that they deserve. 🤝
