It passed and is a huge win for multiple Florida universities: “I’ve worked hard to improve this bill and support our Florida universities, and I’m proud of the result. Increasing the conference cap from 19 to 20 was vital to future of Florida schools’ ability to continue to thrive in college athletics—which is why I fought so hard to amend this legislation. I will always fight relentlessly for Floridians and for all of our state universities,” said Senator Ashley Moody. BACKGROUND: Senator Moody last night offered an amendment to the PCSA that would lift the cap conferences from 19 to 20. The amendment passed by voice vote and was passed later as part of the final legislation – Senator Moody voted in support for final passage. Schools such as the University of Miami, Florida State University, and University of South Florida have been vocal supporters of Senator Moody’s effort to strengthen the PCSA.
