NCAA Accountability Act of 2023

HR 5491 requires large athletic associations (with at least 900 member colleges, like the NCAA) to follow strict due process when investigating member schools for rule violations. It mandates written notices within 60 days detailing allegations, sets a 1-year deadline for public hearings, and bans confidential sources from evidence. The law also creates binding arbitration for disputes and requires annual reports to the Attorney General. This directly affects the NCAA and its member colleges by changing investigation and enforcement procedures.
