## Resource

Sun Belt Conference backs the Protect College Sports Act as Congress intensifies its focus on the future of NCAA athletics. Will new transfer rules, agent commission caps, and scholarship protections genuinely level the playing field—or just reinforce old power structures? Dave Schultz breaks down the sweeping reforms impacting NIL rights, transfer limitations, and antitrust protections, highlighting how G6 programs like James Madison and Tulane stand to gain or lose from the legislation. Insightful analysis raises questions about athlete involvement in these decisions, the balance of power between coaches and players, and the political intrigue shaping college sports policy. Tune in for a bold take on what’s next for the Sun Belt, why the voice of student-athletes remains critical, and how the reshaped landscape could impact playoff aspirations across the conference.
