Trump signs executive order limiting college athlete eligibility and transfers
President Trump signed an executive order limiting college athletes to five years of eligibility within a five-year window and allowing only one transfer without sitting out a season. The order threatens to review federal funding for schools that don't comply with these new restrictions. Legal experts question whether the order would be enforceable if challenged in court.
