The colleges are cutting a lot of their \u2014 they would call them sort of the \u2018lesser\u2019 sports, and they&#8217;re losing them like at numbers nobody can believe. They were really training grounds, beautiful training grounds, hard-working, wonderful young people. They were training grounds for the Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And a lot of these sports that were training so well would win gold medals because of it. Those sports don&#8217;t exist because they&#8217;re putting all their money into football. And by the way, they&#8217;re putting too much money into it, into football.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>President Trump noted that the top-performing athletic programs aren&#8217;t making enough money to sustain themselves, given the rate at which they&#8217;re paying highly sought-after players.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They&#8217;re putting all of their money in, and I know something about it,&#8221; President Trump said. &#8220;They will not be able to stop. You have a college president [saying], &#8220;I&#8217;m telling you, sir, we give a guard $7 million, we&#8217;re going to win the national championship,&#8217; and they&#8217;ll give them seven, then they won&#8217;t win it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And even if they do win it, colleges cannot afford to be paying the kind of salaries that you&#8217;re hearing about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i><strong>Follow Fox News Digital\u2019s<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNewsSports_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong><u> sports coverage on X<\/u><\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong>, and subscribe to<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong><u> the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter<\/u><\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong>.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/trump-rips-nil-disaster-oval-office-warns-its-killing-college-sports\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/trump-rips-nil-disaster-oval-office-warns-its-killing-college-sports <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When President Donald Trump hosts an event in the Oval Office and opens things up to questions from the media, as he did on Friday [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-113666","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
