SEC's Spring Meetings: The Future of College Sports Is in the Balance at Florida Resort
- This week, the Southeastern Conference convened its annual spring meetings at a coastal resort in Florida, bringing together university presidents, athletic directors, and coaches to address key issues shaping the future of college athletics.
- These discussions arise amid the backdrop of a multibillion-dollar lawsuit settlement and focus on critical issues like the College Football Playoff expansion and the SEC's scheduling decisions.
