00:08:20,762 --> 00:08:21,131 142 00:08:20,895 --> 00:08:22,818 hard to save 143 00:08:22,563 --> 00:08:28,731 college sports what's happening is crazy it's crazy 144 00:08:31,654 --> 00:08:34,675 help athletes or like all of you in this room and 145 00:08:34,343 --> 00:08:38,805 as soon as I took office I ended a terrible Injustice and banned 146 00:08:38,511 --> 00:08:43,286 men from competing in women's sports I don't know if anybody agrees does anybody 147 00:08:43,122 --> 00:08:45,310 agree with that that uh 148 00:08:44,982 --> 00:08:48,791 men should be able to play in women's sports would you like to raise your hand 149 00:08:48,564 --> 00:08:53,680 yeah I don't feel yeah don't feel so far I have never found anybody but 150 00:08:57,607 --> 00:09:03,204 I think it's a 99 to 1 maybe it's a little bit more than that coach and maybe it's a 100 to nothing 151 00:09:03,364 --> 00:09:09,758 that campaigned in that 1 all the time I say there will be no men and women sports and people would go 152 00:09:09,262 --> 00:09:10,543 go crazy 153 00:09:10,353 --> 00:09:13,841 but uh but I mean but you politically correct so 154 00:09:13,488 --> 00:09:20,180 earlier this month I signed an executive order to implement a number of key reforms protect 155 00:09:19,704 --> 00:09:24,269 check ing programs like yours which don't always get the top headlines but 156 00:09:23,922 --> 00:09:27,795 crucial to streng thening years and years of 157 00:09:27,642 --> 00:09:30,231 educ ation and sports and 158 00:09:29,822 --> 00:09:34,642 the ability to compete and to win which we need very much we have we now have 159 00:09:34,374 --> 00:09:34,791 160 00:09:34,561 --> 00:09:38,100 thanks to a wonderful decision in the Supreme Court 161 00:09:37,835 --> 00:09:43,589 a country that's again based on Merit in other words if you're the best shooter you're the best shoot er you're the best 162 00:09:43,472 --> 00:09:46,856 golf er you're the best golfer and all of these things are 163 00:09:46,548 --> 00:09:52,449 very important to stop the pay for play schem es that only benefit the largest programs 164 00:09:52,443 --> 00:09:56,284 we will only allow 1 no penalty transfer 165 00:09:56,083 --> 00:09:58,480 through the trans fer portal 166 00:09:58,262 --> 00:09:58,677 167 00:09:58,521 --> 00:10:01,853 I think most of the people here know what that means 168 00:10:01,607 --> 00:10:06,818 uh where you had some people going to 3 4 different it's like they became like 169 00:10:06,522 --> 00:10:11,099 uh Monopoly players and to ensure room for the 170 00:10:10,822 --> 00:10:16,628 new Talent we're also instit uting a 5 -year eligibility cap for college players 171 00:10:16,843 --> 00:10:24,156 because students right out of high school should not have to compete against play ers that are 28 or 29 years old who decide they can make more money 172 00:10:24,342 --> 00:10:27,405 stay ing in college and they can't by going into the 173 00:10:27,162 --> 00:10:31,080 profession al leagues which is pretty ridiculous 174 00:10:30,741 --> 00:10:32,763 it's a very uh 175 00:10:32,486 --> 00:10:36,044 very precarious position that the court s have left us in 176 00:10:36,062 --> 00:10:39,848 because we had great college sports and 177 00:10:39,652 --> 00:10:43,689 person the judge decided who was not 178 00:10:43,312 --> 00:10:43,730 179 00:10:43,682 --> 00:10:51,270 person that knew much about sports actually I think knew nothing about sports decided that the whole thing was uncon stitutional for over 100 years 180 00:10:50,862 --> 00:10:55,371 devel op these programs a lot of scholarships a lot of great things happening 181 00:10:55,212 --> 00:10:58,270 and now it's a tot al and complete mess 182 00:10:58,102 --> 00:11:01,127 but we're going to get it fixed up and uh we've got some 183 00:11:00,792 --> 00:11:02,955 fantastic people 184 00:11:02,642 --> 00:11:04,909 doing it so we need now 185 00:11:04,571

college sports what's happening is crazy it's crazy 402 00:23:45,634 --> 00:23:50,658 and what we want to do is help athletes or like all of you in this room and 403 00:23:50,373 --> 00:23:54,784 as soon as I took office I ended a terrible Injustice and banned 404 00:23:54,533 --> 00:23:59,440 men from competing in women's sports I don't know if anybody agrees does anybody 405 00:23:59,153 --> 00:24:04,699 agree with that that uh men should be able to play in women's sports would you like to raise your hand 406 00:24:04,662 --> 00:24:09,801 yeah don't feel don't so far I have never found anybody but 407 00:24:13,635 --> 00:24:19,257 I think it's a 99 to 1 maybe it's a little bit more than that coach maybe it's a 100 to nothing 408 00:24:19,322 --> 00:24:25,240 that campaign ed in that 1 all the time I say there will be no men and women sports and 409 00:24:24,772 --> 00:24:26,606 people would go crazy 410 00:24:26,374 --> 00:24:30,378 but uh but I mean but you politically correct so 411 00:24:33,293 --> 00:24:40,106 Implement a number of key reforms protect ing programs like yours which don't always get the top headlines but 412 00:24:39,894 --> 00:24:43,758 crucial to streng thening years and years of 413 00:24:43,603 --> 00:24:46,119 educ ation and sports and 414 00:24:45,794 --> 00:24:50,644 the ability to compete and to win which we need very much we have we now have 415 00:24:50,332 --> 00:24:50,744 416 00:24:50,524 --> 00:24:54,141 thanks to a wonderful decision in the Supreme Court 417 00:24:53,803 --> 00:24:56,262 a country that's again based on Merit 418 00:24:55,842 --> 00:25:02,690 in other words if you're the best shooter you're the best shooter if you're the best golfer you're the best golf er and all of these things are 419 00:25:02,323 --> 00:25:02,692 420 00:25:02,577 --> 00:25:08,415 very important to stop the pay for play schemes that only benefit the largest programs 421 00:25:08,143 --> 00:25:08,564 422 00:25:08,403 --> 00:25:12,322 we will only allow 1 no penalty transfer 423 00:25:12,053 --> 00:25:14,456 through the trans fer portal 424 00:25:14,233 --> 00:25:14,688 425 00:25:14,483 --> 00:25:17,883 I think most of the people here know what that means 426 00:25:17,637 --> 00:25:22,930 where you had some people going to 3 4 different it's like they became like 427 00:25:22,563 --> 00:25:27,157 uh Monopoly players and to ensure room for the 428 00:25:26,792 --> 00:25:32,696 uh new Talent we're also instituting a 5-year elig ibility cap players 429 00:25:32,294 --> 00:25:32,698 430 00:25:32,805 --> 00:25:40,207 because students right out of high school should not have to compete against play ers that are 28 or 29 years old who decide they can make more money 431 00:25:40,363 --> 00:25:43,556 stay ing in college and they can't by going into the 432 00:25:43,193 --> 00:25:47,084 profession al leagues which is pretty ridiculous 433 00:25:46,774 --> 00:25:48,821 it's a very uh 434 00:25:48,503 --> 00:25:52,088 very precarious position that the courts have left us in 435 00:25:52,034 --> 00:25:55,751 because we had great college sports and 436 00:25:55,613 --> 00:25:56,050 437 00:25:55,807 --> 00:25:59,905 person the judge decided who was not 438 00:25:59,723 --> 00:26:07,217 person that knew much about sports actually I think knew nothing about sports decided that the whole thing was uncon stitutional for over a hundred years 439 00:26:06,894 --> 00:26:11,440 devel op these programs a lot of scholarships a lot of great things happening 440 00:26:11,245 --> 00:26:14,310 and now it's a total and complete mess 441 00:26:14,064 --> 00:26:17,133 but we're going to get it fixed up and uh we've got some 442 00:26:16,824 --> 00:26:19,031 fantastic people 443 00:26:18,688 --> 00:26:20,968 doing it so we need now 444 00:26:20,603 --> 00:26:27,172 uh Congress to act to clear up the confusion created by the court s and Institute permanent reforms to 445 00:26:26,686 --> 00:26:29,176 college sports at every level 446 00:26:29,054 --> 00:26:35,215 and uh specially some sports and frankly you know a lot of the emphasis is put on football but 447 00:26:34,696 --> 00:26:36,055 footballs now 448 00:26:35,784 --> 00:26:44,233 uh destroying the college's economically stiff being paid so much at the colleges are losing so much money it's not sustainable 449 00:26:43,854 -->

00:38:52,957 --> 00:38:54,865 hard to save 667 00:38:54,617 --> 00:38:59,182 college sports what's happening is crazy 668 00:39:01,671 --> 00:39:06,600 and what we want to do is help athletes or like all of you in this room 669 00:39:06,406 --> 00:39:10,768 as soon as I took office I ended a terrible Injustice and banned 670 00:39:10,566 --> 00:39:15,403 men from competing in women's sports I don't know if anybody agrees does anybody 671 00:39:15,186 --> 00:39:17,349 agree with that that uh 672 00:39:17,046 --> 00:39:20,582 men should be able to play in women's sports would you like to raise your hand 673 00:39:20,686 --> 00:39:25,069 don't feel so far I have never found anybody but 674 00:39:24,672 --> 00:39:29,523 they say it's an 8020 issue but I've never been able to find anybody so 675 00:39:29,671 --> 00:39:35,211 I think it's in 99 to 1 maybe it's a little bit more than that coach maybe it's 100 to nothing 676 00:39:36,261 --> 00:39:41,869 that campaigned on that 1 all the time I say there will be no men and women sports and people would go 677 00:39:41,447 --> 00:39:42,297 crazy 678 00:39:41,898 --> 00:39:42,511 679 00:39:42,477 --> 00:39:45,946 but uh but I mean but you politically correct so 680 00:39:45,612 --> 00:39:53,794 earlier this month I signed an executive order to imple ment a number of key reform s protecting programs like yours which 681 00:39:53,488 --> 00:39:53,959 682 00:39:53,748 --> 00:39:56,330 don't always get the top headlines but 683 00:39:55,926 --> 00:39:59,812 crucial to strengthen ing years and years of 684 00:39:59,646 --> 00:40:02,179 educ ation and sports and 685 00:40:01,816 --> 00:40:06,645 the ability to compete and to win which we need very much we have we now have 686 00:40:06,367 --> 00:40:06,871 687 00:40:06,626 --> 00:40:10,055 thanks to a wonderful decision in the Supreme Court 688 00:40:09,886 --> 00:40:15,673 the country that's again based on Merit in other words if you're the best shooter you're the best shoot er you're the best 689 00:40:15,526 --> 00:40:18,967 off er you the best offer and all of these things are 690 00:40:18,613 --> 00:40:24,267 very important to stop the pay for play schemes that only benefit the largest programs 691 00:40:23,987 --> 00:40:24,713 692 00:40:24,498 --> 00:40:28,285 we will only allow 1 no penalty transfer 693 00:40:28,157 --> 00:40:30,523 through the trans fer portal 694 00:40:30,586 --> 00:40:33,938 I think most of the people here know what that means 695 00:40:33,656 --> 00:40:38,931 uh where you had some people going to 3 4 different it's like they be came like 696 00:40:38,597 --> 00:40:43,107 uh Monopoly players and to ensure room for the 697 00:40:42,886 --> 00:40:48,678 uh new Talent we're also instituting a 5-year eligibility cap for college players 698 00:40:48,908 --> 00:40:55,679 because students right out of high school should not have to compete against players that are 2 8 or 29 years old who decide they can make 699 00:40:55,317 --> 00:40:56,495 more money 700 00:40:56,407 --> 00:40:59,529 stay ing in college that they can't by going into the 701 00:40:59,217 --> 00:41:03,124 profession al leagues which is pretty ridiculous 702 00:41:02,806 --> 00:41:04,765 it's a very uh 703 00:41:04,538 --> 00:41:08,212 very precarious position that the court s have left us in 704 00:41:08,127 --> 00:41:11,711 because we had great college sports and 705 00:41:11,717 --> 00:41:12,109 706 00:41:11,847 --> 00:41:15,667 person who judge decided who was not 707 00:41:15,366 --> 00:41:15,785 708 00:41:15,806 --> 00:41:23,292 person that knew much about sports actually I think knew nothing about sports decided that the whole thing was uncon stitutional for over a hundred years 709 00:41:22,986 --> 00:41:23,472 710 00:41:23,246 --> 00:41:27,426 devel op these programs a lot of scholarships a lot of great things happening 711 00:41:27,288 --> 00:41:30,280 and now it's a total and complete mess 712 00:41:30,167 --> 00:41:33,258 but we're going to get it fixed up and uh we've got some 713 00:41:32,926 --> 00:41:35,071 fantastic people 714 00:41:34,716 --> 00:41:36,971 doing it so we need now 715 00:41:36,696 --> 00:41:43,127 uh Congress to act to clear up the confusion created by the court s and Institute permanent reforms to 716 00:41:42,727 --> 00:41:45,257 college sports at every level 717 00:41:45,086 --> 00:41:51,182 and especially some sports and frankly you know a lot of the emphasis is put on football but 718 00:41:50,727 --> 00:41:52,025 calls now 719 00:41:51,887 --> 00:42:00,264 uh destroying the college's economically still being paid so much at the colleges are losing so much money it's not sustainable 720 00:41:59,959 --> 00:42:00,731 721 00:42:00,526 --> 00:42:06,076 so in recent weeks the White House is convened many of the most respect ed sports figures 722 00:42:05,847 --> 00:42:11,569 and Commissioners in the nation we had all of them here just

00:42:42,115 this incredible group develop ed a strong set of recommend ations and my Administration is committed to working with Congress to get them through I signed an executive order instituting 731 00:42:41,728 --> 00:42:42,346 732 00:42:42,166 --> 00:42:47,316 those recommendations and it's going to clean it up a long way it's going to take a long way 733 00:42:49,927 --> 00:42:53,269 Team USA played his college athletes if you don't 734 00:42:53,187 --> 00:42:58,925 we don't straighten out this we're not going to have much of an Olympic team because you have so many of these Sports

institutions that tradition we're Lessons Learned on the 926 00:53:55,096 --> 00:53:57,676 the playing field shape the character Winn 927 00:53:57,336 --> 00:53:57,678 928 00:53:57,529 --> 00:54:00,657 and you are winners it wouldn't be here if you weren't 929 00:54:00,415 --> 00:54:03,824 the athletes here today represent the very best of that 930 00:54:03,806 --> 00:54:09,256 grit and determination and team work that's why under my Administration we're fighting 931 00:54:08,997 --> 00:54:10,914 hard to save 932 00:54:10,656 --> 00:54:15,122 college sports what's happening is crazy 933 00:54:17,385 --> 00:54:22,693 and what we want to do is help athletes or like all of you in this room 934 00:54:22,448 --> 00:54:26,791 as soon as I took office I ended a terrible Injustice and banned 935 00:54:26,616 --> 00:54:31,575 men from competing in women's sports I don't know if any body agrees does anybody 936 00:54:31,215 --> 00:54:36,631 agree with that that uh men should be able to play in women's sports would you like to raise your hand 937 00:54:36,736 --> 00:54:41,117 yeah don't feel so far I have never found anybody but 938 00:54:40,706 --> 00:54:45,666 they say it's an 8020 issue but I've never been able to find anybody so 939 00:54:45,700 --> 00:54:51,317 I think it's a 99 to 1 maybe it's a little bit more than that coach and maybe it's a 100 to nothing 940 00:54:51,470 --> 00:54:57,055 that campaign ed in that 1 all the time I say there will be no men and women sports 941 00:54:56,726 --> 00:54:58,273 and people would go crazy 942 00:54:57,937 --> 00:54:58,552 943 00:54:58,456 --> 00:55:01,939 but uh but I mean but you politically correct so 944 00:55:01,588 --> 00:55:02,389 945 00:55:02,174 --> 00:55:08,308 earlier this month I signed an executive order to implement a number of key reforms for 946 00:55:07,806 --> 00:55:12,336 check ing programs like yours which don't always get the top headlines but 947 00:55:11,966 --> 00:55:15,900 crucial to strengthen ing years and years of 948 00:55:15,685 --> 00:55:18,192 educ ation and sports and 949 00:55:17,856 --> 00:55:22,677 the ability to compete and to win which we need very much we have we now have 950 00:55:22,415 --> 00:55:22,829 951 00:55:22,666 --> 00:55:26,125 thanks to a wonderful decision in the Supreme Court 952 00:55:25,866 --> 00:55:28,361 a country that's again based on Merit 953 00:55:27,976 --> 00:55:31,855 in other words if you're the best shooter you're the best shooter if you're the best 954 00:55:31,507 --> 00:55:35,019 go for you the best golfer and all of these things are 955 00:55:34,646 --> 00:55:40,364 very important to stop the pay for play schemes that only benefit the largest programs 956 00:55:39,965 --> 00:55:40,699 957 00:55:40,475 --> 00:55:44,362 we will only allow 1 no penalty transfer 958 00:55:44,126 --> 00:55:46,532 through the trans fer portal 959 00:55:46,375 --> 00:55:46,773 960 00:55:46,566 --> 00:55:49,937 I think most of the people here know what that means 961 00:55:49,701 --> 00:55:54,925 uh where you had some people going to 3 4 different it's like they became like 962 00:55:54,644 --> 00:55:59,182 uh Monopoly players and to ensure room for the 963 00:55:58,855 --> 00:56:04,781 uh new Talent we're also instituting a 5-year eligibility cap for college players 964 00:56:04,947 --> 00:56:12,345 because students right out of high school should not have to compete against players that are 28 or 29 years old who decide they can make more money 965 00:56:11,936 --> 00:56:12,407 966 00:56:12,446 --> 00:56:15,592 staying in college and they can't by going into the 967 00:56:15,256 --> 00:56:19,180 profession al leagues which is pretty ridiculous 968 00:56:18,857 --> 00:56:20,963 it's a very uh 969 00:56:20,583 --> 00:56:24,101 very precarious position that the courts have left us in 970 00:56:24,170 --> 00:56:25,456 because we had 971 00:56:25,125 --> 00:56:27,763 great college sports and 972 00:56:27,758 --> 00:56:28,169 973 00:56:27,886 --> 00:56:31,705 person a judge decided who was not 974 00:56:31,408 --> 00:56:31,817 975 00:56:31,787 --> 00:56:38,009 person that knew much about sports actually I think knew nothing about sports decided that the whole thing was unconstitutional 976 00:56:37,427 --> 00:56:44,212 solution 977 00:56:43,326 --> 00:56:46,707 and now 978 00:56:46,136 --> 00:56:49,651 but we're 979 00:56:48,896 --> 00:56:51,454 fantastic 980 00:56:50,747 --> 00:56:53,570 doing it 981 00:56:52,676 --> 00:56:59,326 uh Cong 982 00:56:58,625 -->

long way it's going to take it a long way 1001 00:58:05,966 --> 00:58:09,265 Team USA played his college athletes if you don't 1002 00:58:09,226 --> 00:58:14,941 we don't straighten out this we're not

playing field shape the character of winners 1205 01:09:13,365 --> 01:09:13,647 1206 01:09:13,557 --> 01:09:16,339 and you are winners it wouldn't be here if you weren't 1207 01:09:16,439 -->

01:09:25,087 --> 01:09:26,611 hard to save 1210 01:09:26,695 --> 01:09:32,577 college sports what's happening is crazy is crazy 1211 01:09:33,095 --> 01:09:38,460 and what we want to do is help a thletes or like all of you in this room 1212 01:09:38,475 --> 01:09:42,761 as soon as I took office I entered a terrible Injustice and banned 1213 01:09:42,775 --> 01:09:47,289 men from competing in women's sports I don't know if anybody agrees does anybody 1214 01:09:47,256 --> 01:09:49,238 agree with that that uh 1215 01:09:49,174 --> 01:09:52,493 men should be able to play in women's sports would you like to raise your hand 1216 01:09:52,764 --> 01:09:56,832 that don't feel so far I have never found anybody but 1217 01:09:56,734 --> 01:10:01,429 they say it's an 80 20 issue but I've never been able to find anybody so 1218 01:10:01,796 --> 01:10:07,072 I think it's a 99 to 1 maybe it's a little bit more than that coach and maybe it's a 100 to nothing 1219 01:10:07,566 --> 01:10:13,573 that campaigned on that 1 all the time I say there will be no men and women sports and people would go 1220 01:10:13,454 --> 01:10:14,432 crazy 1221 01:10:14,535 --> 01:10:17,833 but uh but I mean but you politically correct so 1222 01:10:17,685 --> 01:10:23,233 earlier this month I signed an executive order to implement a number of key 1223 01:10:23,065 --> 01:10:25,658 form s protecting program s like yours which 1224 01:10:25,564 --> 01:10:28,126 don't always get the top head lines but 1225 01:10:28,055 --> 01:10:31,657 crucial to streng thening years and years of 1226 01:10:31,774 --> 01:10:34,002 educ ation and sports and 1227 01:10:33,895 --> 01:10:38,576 the ability to compete and to win which we need very much we have we now have 1228 01:10:38,497 --> 01:10:38,889 1229 01:10:38,694 --> 01:10:41,938 thanks to a wonderful decision in the Supreme Court 1230 01:10:41,966 --> 01:10:44,138 a country that's again based on Merit 1231 01:10:44,015 --> 01:10:47,666 in other words if you're the best shooter you're the best shooter if you're the best 1232 01:10:47,605 --> 01:10:50,735 go for you the best golfer and all of these things are 1233 01:10:50,675 --> 01:10:56,151 very important to stop the pay for play schemes that only benefit the largest programs 1234 01:10:56,055 --> 01:10:56,644 1235 01:10:56,575 --> 01:11:00,137 we will only allow 1 no penalty transfer 1236 01:11:00,215 --> 01:11:02,356 through the trans fer portal 1237 01:11:02,395 --> 01:11:02,616 1238 01:11:02,655 --> 01:11:05,765 I think most of the people here know what that means 1239 01:11:05,736 --> 01:11:10,704 uh where you had some people going to 3 4 different it's like they became like 1240 01:11:10,654 --> 01:11:14,938 uh Monopoly players and to ensure room for the 1241 01:11:14,955 --> 01:11:20,447 uh new Talent we're also instituting a 5-year eligibility cap for college players 1242 01:11:20,975 --> 01:11:26,940 because students right out of high school should not have to compete against players that are 2 8 or 29 years old who deck 1243 01:11:26,675 --> 01:11:28,327 decide they can make more money 1244 01:11:28,475 --> 01:11:31,261 stay ing in college and they can't by going into the 1245 01:11:31,294 --> 01:11:34,833 profession al leagues which is pretty ridiculous 1246 01:11:34,875 --> 01:11:36,637 it's a very uh 1247 01:11:36,614 --> 01:11:39,934 very precarious position that the course have left us in 1248 01:11:40,201 --> 01:11:41,335 because we had 1249 01:11:41,154 --> 01:11:43,571 great college sports and 1250 01:11:43,775 --> 01:11:47,559 person a judge decided who was not 1251 01:11:47,496 --> 01:11:47,767 1252 01:11:47,814 --> 01:11:53,460 person that knew much about sports actually I think knew nothing about sports decided that the whole thing was unconscious 1253 01:11:53,077 --> 01:11:55,429 constitutional for over 100 years 1254 01:11:55,315 --> 01:11:59,181 develop these programs a lot of scholarships a lot of great things happening 1255 01:11:59,345 --> 01:12:02,120 and now it's a total and complete mess 1256 01:12:02,234 --> 01:12:05,019 but we're going to get it fixed up and uh we've got some 1257 01:12:04,925 --> 01:12:06,893 fantastic people 1258 01:12:06,774 --> 01:12:08,785 doing it so we need now 1259 01:12:08,695 --> 01:12:14,925 uh Congress to act to clear up the confusion created by the court s and Institute permanent reforms to 1260 01:12:14,655 --> 01:12:17,131 to protect college sports at every level 1261 01:12:17,154 --> 01:12:22,920 and especially some sports and frankly you know a lot of the emphasis is put on football but 1262 01:12:22,669 --> 01:12:23,817 but football's now 1263 01:12:23,944 --> 01:12:31,654 uh destroying the college 's economic ally step being paid so much at the colleges are losing so much money it's not just 1264 01:12:31,446 --> 01:12:32,608 sustainable 1265 01:12:32,594 --> 01:12:37,896 so in recent weeks the White House is convened many of the most respect ed sports figures 1266 01:12:37,914 --> 01:12:43,448 and Commissioners in the nation we had all of them here just about all of the top people 64 of them 1267 01:12:43,426 --> 01:12:43,903

don't know that's a pretty good team 1274 01:12:58,734 --> 01:13:00,066 they will make it 1275 01:13:00,086 --> 01:13:03,000 Tim tibo wonderful guy Charlie Ward 1276 01:13:02,964 --> 01:13:04,323 Adam Silver 1277 01:13:04,437 --> 01:13:11,004 this incredible group develop ed a strong set of recommend ations and my Administration is committed to working with Congress 1278 01:13:10,847 --> 01:13:14,270 to get them through I signed an executive order instituting 1279 01:13:14,235 --> 01:13:19,063 those recommendations and it's going to clean it up a long way it's going to take a long way 1280 01:13:18,975 --> 01:13:22,168 7 5% of Olympian s competing for 1281 01:13:21,986 --> 01:13:25,030 Team USA played his college a thletes if you don't 1282 01:13:25,255 --> 01:13:30,655 we don't straighten out this we're not going to have much of an Olympic team because you have so many of these Sports especially 1283 01:13:30,695 --> 01:13:32,432 certain Sports where 1284 01:13:32,815 -->
