Ted Cruz ruthlessly booed on College GameDay while promoting Protect College Sports Act
College football fans were not happy to see Senator Ted Cruz stop by the ESPN College GameDay set.
On ESPN's College GameDay in Austin, Texas, Senator Ted Cruz found himself the target of boos from the crowd while promoting the Protect College Sports Act. During the show's opening segment, Cruz sat down with host Rece Davis to discuss the bipartisan bill. The boos and chants of "Ted Cruz sucks!" drowned out the senator's interview.
The Protect College Sports Act, co-authored by Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell, aims to establish a federal standard for eligibility, NIL, and transfers. It limits athletes to five years of eligibility from high school graduation or age 19 and allows one no-penalty transfer, ending the current "wild west" transfer portal. A Senate vote on the bill is scheduled between September 15 and September 23.
