President Donald Trump officially inserted himself into the college sports conversation on Thursday by issuing his first major executive order related to college sports. Titled "Saving College Sports," the order promises sweeping and binding changes to help tame the wild college athletics landscape.

Any policies that come from an executive order can either be challenged in court and reversed by the next administration, which means college sports continues to operate under a blanket of uncertainty when it comes to defining the relationship between schools and athletes. That’s exactly what college sports leaders are trying to stop.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday that is intended to bring order and stability to college sports, though NCAA and conference leaders still stressed that federal legislation is needed to address myriad issues schools and athletes are facing.
