U.S. Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) have released their long-awaited college sports bill called the Protecting Athletes, Schools, and Sports (PASS) Act of 2023. The main points, per The Athletic’s Auerbach: “The bill would make any state laws that include revenue sharing illegal. It would also allow the NCAA to prohibit certain types of deals, such as those with gambling companies or alcohol brands. The NCAA would be in charge of enforcing and investigating such rules, but it would have the support of the Federal Trade Commission, which would handle the registration of agents and collectives as well as the national public NIL deal registry. Collectives and boosters would be required to be formally affiliated with specific schools. The act would guarantee health insurance for sports-related injuries for uninsured student athletes for eight years following graduation from a four-year institution. That responsibility would either fall upon the school at which the athlete played and/or a newly formed trust fund taken from 1% of annual proceeds from revenue-generating collegiate tournaments, including the NCAA men’s basketball tournament and the College Football Playoff.” The bill would require student-athletes to complete three years of athletics eligibility before transferring, with exceptions for a death in the family, head/position coach changes or a student-athlete “who meets any other criteria, as determined by the NCAA.” (link); Full bill. (link) 

On3’s Andy Wittry examines several NCAA toolkits and memos for lobbying Congress on crafting a federal college sports bill and points out that “one talking point provided in each division’s toolkit seemed to tease potential concessions that the NCAA could be willing to make to athletes in the highest-revenue-producing sports to achieve its Congressional goals.” Specifically, the talking point states: “A small but important percentage of student-athletes compete in sports that generate significant revenue for their universities. With Congress’ assistance, we are open to exploring various mechanisms to potentially address these student-athletes’ unique economic interests in a way that is fair, equitable and sustainable.” The documents also ask schools in each division: “Which student-athletes on your campus can serve as key voices in sharing their experiences as a student-athlete with your community and federal legislatures?” More from Wittry.
