In this episode, WNBA star Sabrina Ionescu sits down with Roy Wood Jr. to discuss what this means for college athletes, the future of player compensation, and how she is involved with navigating deals for students at her alma mater, the University of Oregon. Roy also sits with Daily Show correspondent, Michael Kosta, to discuss the potential drawbacks that may come with paying college athletes.
