"I will have an executive order within one week, and it will be very all-encompassing. And we're going to put it forward, and we're going to get sued, and we're going to see how it plays, okay, but I'll have an executive order which will solve every problem in this room, every conceivable problem, within one week, and we'll put it forward."
"The group included other politicians, sports celebrities, media executives, conference commissioners, university presidents and chancellors and athletic directors. Those who spoke delivered a similar message: college sports needs federal legislation to restore order in the NIL space and its overall economics."
President Trump hosted the inaugural "Saving College Sports" roundtable at the White House with approximately 50 attendees including politicians, sports executives, conference commissioners, university leaders, and athletic directors. The meeting, which extended beyond its scheduled hour, brought together NCAA leadership and representatives from major conferences to address critical issues in college athletics. Participants emphasized the need for federal legislation to regulate the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) space and stabilize college sports economics. Trump committed to drafting a comprehensive executive order within one week to resolve the identified problems, acknowledging that legal challenges would likely follow the order's implementation.
