With the passage of the House v. NCAA settlement in June, the NCAA is preparing to dramatically change its structure. In a wide-ranging conversation with CBS Sports, NCAA president Charlie Baker opened up on the numerous changes, and where the organization fits into the landscape long term. 

In the months since the settlement, the College Sports Commission was created to handle many of the issues of player compensation. Additionally, the organization is reducing committees from 44 to 30, with increased representation from athletes. 

“This is all making it possible for us to make decisions,” Baker told CBS Sports. “A huge part of the reason what we’ve been doing the last few years feels so rushed is because we went years without dealing with and solving a lot of these issues to try and bring the NCAA into the 21st century. I think where we’ve landed on this is going to give us a committee structure that’s going to be able to make decisions and represent the membership.”
