đ Private schools are about to dominate recruiting in Texas
It all comes down to one bill in the State Senate
Hey there,
Not too long ago we ran a piece on how college athletics admissions could be changing drastically over the next four years. In that piece, we discussed two bills in Texas that could curb international student-athlete participation. Well today, weâre going to talk about what would actually happen if those bills (which functionally say the same thing) got passed in the stateâs legislature â and which schools would benefit most from the law.
At least in terms of on-field/court performance, the law would benefit private schools massively while disadvantaging public schools. Why? Well, if youâre an All-Access subscriber, youâre about to find out. If youâre not, sign up here. Letâs get into it.

Some ContextâŚ
If you didnât read our first piece that discusses this topic, you should read it here â it gets into the philosophical discussion around limiting international student-athletes from playing in the U.S. But Texasâ SB 1319 bill was a very small part of that piece, and itâs the whole point of this whole piece, so we should probably explain it a bit more.
