Earlier this month, United States President Donald Trump hosted the βSaving College Sportsβ roundtable at the White House. NCAA president Charlie Baker , numerous conference commissioners, and several collegiate coaches attended the event.
Just weeks later, Trump has formed five separate committees to cover legislation, rules, NCAA reform, media, and player issues. Per CBS Sports, meetings are expected to begin next week.
The committees are made up of former players, University Athletic Directors and Presidents, figures from in and around professional sports, and more. A few of the most notable names include former Alabama head coach Nick Saban , former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer , and 15-time Majors Champion Tiger Woods .
