Former football coach Sen. Tommy Tuberville rips growing influence of money in college sports, wants changes
Fox News
Republican Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville, a former college football coach, is going after the growing influence of money in college sports as he seeks to create better oversight.
"I'm fine with it. I think it's good that players make money off their name, but it's gotten out of hand," Tuberville told Fox. "Right now it's a Wild West. It's out of control. Money is flying everywhere. Some players are getting their money, some players aren't. There's no oversight. So we're trying to put some oversight into this."

Tuberville, who served as head football coach at multiple schools, including Auburn University, and Manchin, a former West Virginia University football player, introduced the Protecting Athletes, Schools and Sports Act, or PASS Act, in July, two years after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the NCAA had illegally restricted education-based benefits that could be used as compensation to student athletes.
