Big Ten SEC Weigh In on College Sports Bill | US News
Description
College sports are on the brink of major change as Senators Cruz and Cantwell push the Protect College Sports Act — a sweeping bill aiming to unify rules across the Big Ten and SEC — but conference leaders remain skeptical, citing legal risks and antitrust concerns. With the season starting in August, Cruz warns the status quo is causing “irreparable damage,” urging swift action before chaos erupts. The bill would let athletes keep endorsement money, cap transfers and eligibility, consolidate media rights, and shield rivalry games — but the Big Ten still refuses to back it, while the SEC admits the current system is “unsustainable” and open to tweaks.
