Legislation is on the way to regulate collegiate sports spending and transfers as the 'protect college sports act', written by Texas senator Ted Cruz and Washington democrat Maria Cantwell would hand the NCAA an antitrust exemption to enforce a series of rules that have been challenged in court over the past few years, limiting athletes to a one-time transfer without penalty, limit eligibility to 5 years, ban former pro-athletes from playing in college, halt schools from poaching coaches during the season, and granting the NCAA the ability to enforce a spending cap for how much schools can pay their athletes, a proposal from Austin mayor Kirk Watson to pull back some of the city’s commitment to building highway caps over I-35 won’t move forward this week as last year, the city council approved $104-million for what are called vertical "roadway elements", which are structural components needed for about six planned highway coverings of varying sizes, stretching from near the river to north Austin, but none of that money will cover any of the caps themselves, nor any of the amenities that the council wants included.
