NCAA President On Whether Trump Can Help Save College Athletics

Related Topics: NCAA, Charlie Baker

AMELIA ISLAND, Fla. — NCAA President Charlie Baker spoke to the Atlantic Coast Conference’s coaches and administrators on Monday about the pending NCAA vs the House settlement, which is expected to be approved soon.

However, when Baker met with the media following the league’s opening spring meeting at the Ritz Carlton on Amelia Island, his attention was turned to President Donald Trump, who reportedly plans to create a commission on college athletics.

After Trump met with former Alabama head football coach Nick Saban two weeks ago, the Wall Street Journal reported the Trump administration is considering an executive order that “could increase scrutiny” of NIL payments to college athletes.
