College sports are under siege—and President Donald Trump may be the only one who can bring back fairness and order.

During a high-profile meeting in Alabama, President Trump sat down with legendary football coach Nick Saban to discuss the runaway impact of Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals. These lucrative contracts have transformed college athletics into a free-for-all, with deep-pocketed donors buying up top talent, leaving traditional values and fair competition in the dust.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Coach Saban warned President Trump that while student-athletes deserve opportunities, the current pay-for-play system is out of control. “We need reform—not a bidding war,” Saban has said. “We want a level playing field, not chaos where the biggest wallet wins.”

Saban called on Congress to step up last year, but with gridlock in Washington, all eyes are now on President Trump. After listening to Saban’s concerns, Trump is reportedly considering a bold executive order to bring national standards and legal protection to college sports.

This issue is personal for many Americans. College football, especially in the South and Midwest, represents tradition, honor, and opportunity—not unchecked greed. Conservatives across the country are demanding that Washington stop the exploitation of college athletes and restore integrity to student athletics.

Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), another college football veteran, recently told Fox News, “If anyone can fix this, it’s President Trump.”

Just last week, the NCAA rushed through new rules that allow colleges to directly pay athletes, as part of a multibillion-dollar lawsuit settlement. Without federal intervention, this summer could bring even more turmoil to the world of college sports.

At a graduation event in Alabama, where Trump delivered a rousing speech after being introduced by Coach Saban, he praised the school’s proud tradition. “This is where legends are made,” Trump declared. And now, the 45th President may be gearing up to protect that legacy—before it’s too late.
