| 0:00.0 | And welcome back to the cover three podcast here on CBS Sports. |
| 0:14.8 | That's Tom Freneli. That's Danny Cannell. I'm Chip Patterson coming to you live on CBS Sports |
| 0:20.0 | Network, |
| 0:25.6 | fired up to be back with you as we've got a little time to do a reset because spring practice is winding down. |
| 0:28.1 | So what are we going to have coming up for you in a little bit? |
