Establishment of a Congressional Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics Reform

The Drake Group urges Congress and the general public to understand the need for comprehensive federal reform legislation that goes beyond the current singular focus on college athlete name, image, and likeness rights or a slight nod to athlete health and protection. There is a clear need for an independent Congressional Commission that examines the multi-faceted problems that have plagued and created upheaval in college sports. Increasingly commercialized athletic programs pose a real danger to the academic integrity of our institutions of higher education and the education, health and well-being of college athletes.
