I think a lot of people's eyes glaze over when it comes to this legislation stuff on college sports, partially due to multiple failed attempts to get something passed and also partially due to a "just let me know when something actually happens" mindset, understandably. Who knows if this bill is the one, although it is said to be bipartisan. I will say, though, that a lot of fans' biggest ask is for there to be at least some control over the transfer portal. One transfer is fine, but a player going to 3-4 different schools in 5 years is a bit excessive. If this bill does pass, it would allow the NCAA to enforce the one-time transfer rule once again - "enables administrators to enforce policies related to movement by permitting only one transfer before a player must miss a season of eligibility. A second or more transfers are permitted under certain conditions, such as a head coach leaving or the elimination of an athlete’s sport."
