Legendary coaches praise Trump's new college sports EO as president vows to protect women's, Olympic sports
APRIL 06, 2026
Under Trump's order, student-athletes will be limited to 'fair market value' compensation.
President Donald Trump laid out new ground rules for college-level sports and athletes in a new executive order being praised by some of the biggest names in collegiate sports.
However, some of the president's proposed limitations are sure to bother some, especially top-earning college athletes.
'I urge Congress to pass bipartisan legislation and SAVE COLLEGE SPORTS!'
Following a college sports roundtable at the White House in March, the president signed an executive order on Friday to implement "Urgent National Action to Save College Sports."
The order puts a theoretical cap on student-athlete pay, sets a five-year window for athlete eligibility, and even limits transfers to one per student-athlete in a five-year period.
