"The NCAA Constitution Committee met again this week, discussing the survey results from the campus outreach that occurred last month. An executive summary and the full results are available on the committee's ncaa.org page.
"The Constitution Committee has been meeting for a month while engaging with colleagues through conversations, conducting a comprehensive survey, receiving presentations from segments of college athletics and studying the financial model," said Robert M. Gates, Constitution Committee chair and independent member of the NCAA Board of Governors. "As part of our existing governance model, changes must be made across the Association, which requires all three divisions to engage and participate."
"Successfully drafting a new constitution will unlock the ability of the three divisions — especially Division I — to make the changes required to not encounter these setbacks again and to continue governing itself," said Jack DeGioia, Board of Governors chair, Constitution Committee member and Georgetown president. "The passage of a new constitution in January 2022 sets the stage in the months to follow for the divisions to begin work on reimagining their own governance model, rules and standards."
For more on this week's meeting of the Constitution Committee, read the committee's statement.

Incredible: Fulham players climb into crowd to celebrate goal with 13-Year Old fan Rhys Porter who has cerebral palsy and suffered savage online abuse after posting footage of himself playing football. Beautiful moment of empathy and human kindness 🙌 pic.twitter.com/mf0Dq33fII
"Fulham footballers players have been praised for creating "a beautiful moment in the beautiful game" after celebrating a goal with a disabled supporter who had been bullied online.
Several of the London team's players ran over to Rhys Porter, who was sat in the front row of one the stands, after Aleksandar Mitrovic put Fulham in front in the second half.
The 13-year-old, who has cerebral palsy and epilepsy, plays as a goalkeeper for the Feltham Bees disability team.
After posting a video of himself saving a goal on the social media platform TikTok, Rhys received hundreds of abusive comments from other users.
Fulham responded by making Rhys an honorary member of their team and listed him as a first team goalkeeper on their site."
