The @SEC ran this TV ad over the weekend, thar provides a link to a website. The ad and the website make many false claims, the most egregious being that the SCORE Act, in its current form, is supported by every D1 conference in America. This is NOT true. In fact, the large majority of conferences and their members (including many members of the Power 4) believe that the SCORE Act needs to be amended and modified so that women’s sports, Olympic sports, smaller schools, and the Student Athletes can be protected and represented in the final solution. Yes, the SCORE Act is a good start, and we are all grateful that DC is finally paying attention to the existential issues facing college sports, but we ALL need to come together (Big Schools, Small Schools, Women’s Sports, Olympic Sports AND the Student Athletes),to come up with a compromised and comprehensive solution that works for the betterment of the entire system - not just major college football. 500,000 Student Athletes and hundreds of communities are depending on us! Deception and dishonesty, as displayed through this @SEC ad, only drive a wedge between what we were hopeful was becoming a constructive and productive conversation. Let’s get this discussion back on track and work together to find the right solutions that will preserve the Great American Institution of College Athletics!!
