Summary
Alex and Richard interview Jennifer Abruzzo, the general counsel of the National Labor Relations Board, who wrote the September memo that says college football players in certain situations are employees who should have federal labor protections. They talked about why this piece of paper matters, how it could change college sports, and what would need to happen for this ball to really get rolling. We do lots of these kinds of interviews on our Patreon, which we'd be excited to have you subscribe to at splitzoneduo.com.
