College sports organizations would have to follow new rules for investigating teams and athletes.
This bill would make big college sports organizations, like the NCAA, follow new rules when they investigate colleges, teams, or student-athletes. It would set clear steps for investigations, including how and when they must give notice of alleged rule breaking. If these organizations don't follow the rules, the Attorney General could step in and issue penalties.
Currently, large college sports organizations investigate alleged rule violations without specific federal due process requirements. This bill would require these organizations to establish clear due process steps for investigations, including strict timelines for notices, limits on how far back investigations can go, and the right to independent arbitration for colleges. It would also give the Attorney General the power to enforce these rules, including imposing civil penalties for violations.
