Just caught it - fairly brief. Touched on the collaboration with FS1 and the perfect timing - rebirth of the BE and the birth of FS1 happening around the same time.

When asked about paying student athletes she basically said it was a complex issue and described to the interviewer how the non-revenue sports are funded and did say something to the effect of tweaking the student athletes' benefits.

I'll go to their website to see if there is a link.

EDIT: Here is a link from an interview last week - don't think it is from the same interview I saw wthough:
