Summary

The Cover 3 crew returns to talk high school recruiting and Georgia’s transfer portal headlines. First, what exactly went down at Florida State’s Midnight Madness as thousands of prospects showed up to Tallahassee to celebrate the end of the recruiting dead period with a mega camp weekend (3:00). Then, the many storylines surrounding the commitments of both Arik Gilbert and Derion Kendrick to Georgia, including what to watch as the story continues and what each can do for the Bulldogs’ title hopes (15:35). Finally, a deep dive into what makes a good recruiter (26:35), starting with the timeless traits like being a salesman and politician all the way to the modern era with all the tools of social media and instant communication — impacting not only how coaches talk to recruits but how recruits can communicate with each other (40:45).
