President Donald Trump and his administration are considering an executive order aimed at increasing ‘scrutiny of the explosion in payments to college athletes,’ per the Wall Street Journal.
Trump reportedly met with Nick Saban Thursday when he was in Tuscaloosa for his commencement speech at the 2025 spring graduating commencement for the University of Alabama.
The Wall Street Journal reports Saban talked about NIL deals with Trump during their meetings, and the former Alabama head football coach shared he felt it damaged college athletics.
