NCAA President Charlie Baker pens an urgent call-to-action through USA Today asking for federal intervention via the Protect College Sports Act to halt the rapid legal erosion of traditional collegiate eligibility boundaries. Citing a surge of over 165 filed lawsuits since the start of 2025, Baker: “As rosters are increasingly packed with older adults and former professionals, the most obvious consequence is an unfair matchup on the field. But the longer-term impact falls on the next generation of young athletes who will be squeezed out of the system as a result. Sidelining incoming freshmen doesn’t just rob them of their roster spots or athletic scholarship opportunities — it also strips away their chance to experience the lifelong benefits of college sports. In addition, adding former professionals to rosters costs already-enrolled student-athletes valuable playing time and development opportunities during their precious years in college.” More. (link)

NCAA Lead Outside Counsel Rakesh Kilaru visited with Tulane Sports Law Program Director Gabe Feldman on the SportsWise podcast. Here are some key takeaways…

Wisconsin-Superior AD Nick Bursik joins Eye of the Swarm to detail the department’s growth, as there will be 410 Yellowjackets student-athletes this year, around 175 of whom are new to Superior as freshmen or transfers, through new sports and roster growth. Also, the department has hired its first Director of Student-Athlete Leadership and Development (aka Director of SALAD) in former Women’s Soccer HC Allison DeGroot through a NCAA Strategic Alliance Matching Grant to meet needs that student-athletes were seeking. Bursik: “If we say we're about the student-athlete experience, we have to be willing to ask our student-athletes, ‘Well, how is your experience? What can we do to strengthen your experience? What's working well? What's not working?’ And get that data. We use our SAAC group for that major conduit to be the voice of the student-athletes, to tell us about their experience, to show us where they have opportunity. … It was really SAAC that for the past several years, this has been kind of their top priority: how can we grow more as individuals? What resources are available from a leadership perspective and a personal growth perspective? So that was really the conduit of saying, ‘This is a need. This is what our athletes are saying they want.’” (link)

Senate Democrats considering a bipartisan deal to pass the Protect College Sports Act find themselves in a tricky spot, per Semafor’s Burgess Everett, who notes fractures in the Democratic coalition raise questions about the legislation’s ability to clear the narrowly divided House even if it can pass the Senate. Expectations are for Senate Democrats to conduct a conversation about the bill sometime this month. Everett: “Democrats should not assume there will be another chance to address college sports next year and should weigh the bill on its merits. If the party’s senators block this bill, Republicans may not be in a mood to start from scratch in January should they lose the House or Senate. But the political calculus is complicated: [President Donald] Trump doesn’t have many bipartisan accomplishments to brag about. He soured on the housing bill before it even became law. Given his love for sports and spectacle, I would imagine he would tout this bill loudly if it passes. Democrats must decide whether that matters to them or whether Republicans would gain a real edge from the bill passing.” (link)

Gettysburg receives a $1M commitment from Select Medical Co-Founder and Executive Chairman/wrestling alum Bob Ortenzio to endow the women’s wrestling HC position, as the Bullets program launches this year. AD Troy Dell: “By endowing the head coaching position, Bob Ortenzio is providing the stability, leadership, and confidence our women’s wrestling program needs to establish a strong foundation and pursue its highest aspirations. His commitment is a powerful reflection of his belief in Gettysburg, in the future of women’s wrestling, and in the transformational experience we can create for generations of student-athletes.” (link)
