Meta: Senator Tommy Tuberville criticized the Dartmouth men’s basketball union vote on Fox News. The former college football coach said he supports athletes making money but is against unions.

Following Tuesday’s historic vote by the Dartmouth men’s basketball team to unionize, senator and former college football coach Tommy Tuberville (R., Ala.) let it rip on Fox News, heavily criticizing the students’ decision.

“This will absolutely kill college sports,” Tuberville opined on the network’s America Reports show Wednesday.

Tuberville pointed out that a name, image, and likeness bill he previously proposed left out unionization, and he blamed Democrats’ wanting its inclusion for it not having reached the floor. The way he sees it: Athletes are not employees, and getting the federal government and unions involved “will be a total disaster.”
