Episode description

In the second installment of our three-part mini series, the conversation turns to the contentious topic of Pro/Rel. Are the barriers to entry anti-competitive? Is the current closed system partly to blame for the men's national team failing to qualify for the 2018 World Cup? Can newly-elected USSF president Carlos Cordeiro relinquish control from the de facto gatekeepers, the MLS owners? Kevin Egan sits down with NASL interim commissioner Rishi Sehgal, 13-year MLS and NASL veteran Hunter Freeman, five-year NWSL veteran Stephanie Ochs, and a man who has seen (and called) it all, Phil Schoen, to discuss the future of the sport in America.
