The Cover 3 crew answers listener questions on Texas, Michigan, recruiting and more. First, some instant reaction to the first hours of the NIL era (2:00) before starting this week’s mailbag with a look at whether coaches can or do improve as recruiters (12:30). Then, comparing Euro 2020 sides to college football teams (17:25), a breakdown of how 247Sports evaluates elite talent (24:00) and whether Texas and Texas A&M can both be at peak efficiency at the same time (33:10). Plus, a minute on Kansas State (36:40), a review of Iowa State’s 2020 (40:30) and why there isn’t more hype for JJ McCarthy at Michigan (45:10).
