The NCAA's Last Stand: What's at Stake in the Protect College Sports Act The Protect College Sports Act is on a collision course with the Senate, and its fate will be decided in the coming weeks.
At stake are issues of fair compensation for student athletes' name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights and the future of college athletics.
The bill's proponents, including high profile coaches like Nick Saban and Deion Sanders, argue that it will bring stability to a chaotic system by protecting colleges from exploitation claims.
