Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.) are expected to announce plans Wednesday for a bipartisan college sports bill, the latest development in a multi-year effort by college sports leaders to have Congress pass legislation attempting to stabilize the industry and curb the flood of legal challenges against the NCAA and power conferences.The bill would allow the NCAA to limit transfers and eligibility, enforce a spending cap, give conferences the ability to pool their television rights and prevent coaches from leaving their teams before the end of the season. It also includes language to prevent a possible breakaway “super league” by the Big Ten and SEC.Cruz and Cantwell, the chair and ranking member of the Senate Commerce Committee, respectively, have been working for months toward a comprehensive bill that could potentially garner enough bipartisan support to reach 60 votes in the Senate. Their efforts intensified recently.The unveiling of a Senate bill, named the Protect College Sports Act, comes the week after a potential vote on the SCORE Act, a separate college sports bill that originated in the U.S. House of Representatives, was canceled again due to political standoffs and disagreement over the amount of power ceded to the NCAA and top conferences.
