HBO series looks at covid/sports risk

FAYETTEVILLE -- The prospects for a college football season are sure to receive an intensive examination on "Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel", the HBO series that will debut its July episode tonight.

On the segment titled "Return to Play," correspondent David Scott, according to an HBO news release, "examines the short and long-term health risks facing student-athletes -- and the NCAA's decision to not require universities provide any protections for the players."

Scott interviews SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey for the piece to discuss the coronavirus pandemic, and a clip from that interview circulated on social media Monday.
