The push for college sports reform at the White House is moving fast. President Donald Trump has formed five committees on college sports — covering legislation, rules, NCAA reform, media and player issues — with meetings expected to begin next week, people familiar with the decision tell CBS Sports. The President’s Oversight Committee will collect the groups’ recommendations and make final calls.<\/p>\n

The news comes on the heels of President Trump’s unprecedented “Saving College Sports” roundtable earlier this month in Washington D.C., where dozens of college sports leaders, media executives, pro sports executives and politicians met for two hours at the White House.<\/p>\n

CBS Sports can confirm the following leaders have been invited to serve on the five committees:<\/p>\n
