The Cover 3 crew talks coaching changes, Tennessee, NCAA, NIL and more. First, discussing the breaking news Wednesday morning as the state of Tennessee, joined by Virginia, has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA over its NIL rules (1:40). This comes in the wake of the NCAA reportedly investigating Tennessee's football program for violations tied to NIL, and provides yet another crossroads for the association and its role in the future of college sports. Then, after a quick run through some of the notable takeaways from the 2024 Big 12 schedule release (21:39) the crew does a deep dive on the 2023-24 coaching carousel using superlatives from the cycle (39:55). Included are discussions around the coach that will lead the biggest improvement on a team's win total (42:52), the most difficult job to take over (46:33), surprise hires (54:17) and much, much more.
