NCAA president Charlie Baker on Trump executive order: Hopeful for 'bipartisan solution'

INDIANAPOLIS — NCAA president Charlie Baker said he’s hopeful President Donald Trump’s latest executive order aimed at fixing college athletics can result in a “bipartisan solution on the Congressional side” to create lasting stability.“I like the fact that people seem to be working toward an answer, and there are a number of Democrats who said what I would describe as some reasonably positive things about some of the elements of it,” Baker said Saturday before the two Final Four games at Lucas Oil Stadium. “So at (this) point in time in Washington, where there aren’t a lot of people on both sides saying nice things about much of anything, I (think that’s) helpful.”Advertisement
