S.Amdt. 6796

The amendment allows colleges, athletic conferences, or associations to set and enforce a maximum limit on the total coaching pay for any varsity sports team.

It gives conferences and athletic associations the power to punish member schools that go over this coaching pay limit by using financial penalties, postseason restrictions, or taking away conference media revenue.

It defines total coaching pay to include the total financial value of everything provided directly or indirectly to a head coach, assistant coach, or general manager, which covers base salary, performance bonuses, pay from collectives or associated entities, apparel or media contract fees, and non-monetary benefits.
