The opposition to the Protect College Sports Act seems to be getting stronger. Will it be enough to prevent its passage?

This is why Saban left college football. He gaslit families into sending their talented kids to an all star program for just a scholarship to a mid state school. NIL has democratized college sports. Churn out better alumni and job opportunities and you’ll receive more NIL $!

Bravo Chris! Damn that was well done. Calling out the ESPN BS better than anyone I’ve heard. I urge people to watch Kirk Herbstreit’s nonsense, followed by what Chris has to say.

Alright, I have had my reservations about PFT as a whole for a while (just doesn’t fit my sports media diet despite Florio being a fellow Vikings fan), but Simms popping off here VERY correctly, I’m gonna give em a shot.

Nick Saben just mad he’s not the only one that can buy and hoard top talents anymore. That’s why he quit. He failed at NFL level because he can’t coach. Only way he wins is by cheating. He’s anti competition.#PretendSupremacy. Western Michigan won!

Are you aware the biggest financial backer of the bill (Cody Campbell) also got his conference, the Big 12, to be exempt from all the regulations?

If players are paid for college football they can stay in school longer, therefore get their education. The money is going somewhere. Would you suggest the schools keep the money?

The “keep politics out of sports” crowd sure love to get politics involved in sports whenever they want.

Honestly, I love Florio & Simms. But I think this misses the mark. No, college football doesn't need saving because less people watch it––at least for now. It needs saving because it's become a professional football institution instead of representing an educational institution.

They allowed the SEC & Big Ten to expand, now they want to shut the door on all others. Why did they choose 19 (a prime number) for max membership? For total control. They wanna force ND into the Big 10 and FSU, Clemson & Ga Tech into the SEC then lock everyone else into place.

He is right that the government shouldn’t be involved but this isn’t an SEC bill. It is an ESPN and colleges that can’t compete in the new era act like the Big 12 and ACC.

The college football season will be winding down by the time the House returns in November. After the election there is a chance for passage in a lame duck. But that will depend on other priorities. Should power shift, the legislation could be further delayed. Time is running out

But does all this mean that revenue sharing and transfer limits shouldn't be in place? Lol no one says that NFL players shouldn't make money, but we also know that things like the salary cap help regulate the game.

It’s a bad bill - only 1 transfer and limits money - salary cap. Taxation without representation. No cba and no antitrust. This bill was built to save NCAA incompetence
