This won't become law because the president doesn't have this authority, but notably this EO gives NCAA athletes five years of eligibility. For some reason there's been a push for that. Were it to ever happen, it would cripple the Ivy League, which does not permit grad student athletes.

I mean the NCAA is a private enterprise and should be able to run its own shit the way it wants. That being said, Trump can threaten to cut federal funding and then everyone either gets in line real fast or gets well and truly fucked, in many cases, while this goes through the courts.

"He can't DO that!" Are we still pretending that he can't or won't? Or that everyone won't cowtow to his whims?
