Trump backs bipartisan plan to fix college sports with federal rules

President Trump endorsed the Protect College Sports Act in the Senate to create a federal rulebook for college athletics—limiting transfers, banning mid-season coaching moves, and enshrining NIL protections—as a bipartisan alternative after the House's SCORE Act fell apart; Cruz and Cantwell are promoting it, and while major conferences oppose it for not preempting state laws, supporters say it’s the last chance to save college sports and Congress could act this summer.
