Breaking: NCAA President Mark Emmert will step down by June 2023, the NCAA announced.
"With the significant transitions underway within college sports, the timing of this decision provides the Association with consistent leadership during the coming months plus the opportunity to consider what will be the future role of the president," NCAA board of governors chair John J. DeGioia, the president of Georgetown, said in a statement."It also allows for the selection and recruitment of the next president without disruption.
In January, NCAA member schools adopted a new constitution, and are now in the process of transforming the structure and mission to meet future needs. Emmert's decision isn't unexpected, as the reboot of college athletics is expected to significantly reduce the NCAA's responsibility in management and enforcement of rules.
The new constitution, which was prompted by significant legal and political defeats for the NCAA last summer, is designed to simplify what many college sports leaders have called a complex and outdated rulebook. It shrinks the board of governors -- the association's decision-making entity -- from 20 members down to nine and tries to ensure that current and former athletes have a larger voice in shaping the future NCAA.
"Are we spending our resources in a way that emphasizes our core values and helping as many students as we can?" Emmert said during an address in January."That's what's driving frustration and anger both inside and outside college sports, and that's what puts the whole enterprise at serious risk."
