Donald Trump college sports roundtable, explained: Why Nick Saban, Urban Meyer, others are at White House meeting
President Donald Trump is set to host a college sports roundtable at the White House on Friday, March 6.
Outkick first reported last week that the White House was planning to hold an event discussing the future of college sports, aiming to "navigate the current landscape of college athletics that is currently mired in plenty of controversy," with invitations to some of the biggest names and executives surrounding NCAA athletics.
Trump signed an executive order in 2025 with the goal of “protecting men’s and women’s college sports programs," saying his administration would work to “provide the stability, fairness, and balance necessary to protect student-athletes, collegiate athletic scholarships and opportunities, and the special American institution of college sports," per The Hill.
Now, the roundtable is set to include discussion on a number of key collegiate sports topics, including NIL.
