Good morning, Bucknotters. It is Tuesday, August 22nd, 2023. Why is that important?

Once another beautiful day here in the gym city and in the great state of Ohio, but also it is Edrick Houston's birthday and he is going to announce his commitment later this evening.

That's why this show is called Happy Edrick Houston Day question mark because we don't know yet what the deal is.

We have a good feeling about it. We're going to have Bill Krillic and Mark Porter on here in a second, but today's show is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Sometimes in life, we are faced with tough choices and the path forward isn't always clear.

I have two children going off to college this week, so I am dealing with future separation anxiety. I'm not sure that's a technical term, but whether you're dealing with decisions around your career relationships or anything else, therapy helps you stay connected to what you really want while you navigate life.

So you can move forward with confidence and excitement. Trusting yourself to make decisions that align with your values like anything.

More you practice it, the easier it gets. I know for me sometimes just talking through things with someone is super helpful.

We can all get in our own heads and getting out of that state and sharing your thoughts with a person, let alone a trained professional and getting feedback can bring you a ton of clarity to your particular situation.

If you're thinking of starting therapy, you should really give BetterHelp a try. It's entirely online designed to be convenient, flexible and suited to your schedule.

Just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with license therapists and switch therapists anytime or no additional charge.

Gentlemen.

Is it Happy Ejic Houston Day, Bill? We have been riding this recruitment for some time. Vibes have been hot towards the buck eyes, but in light of the position he plays, this is taken on an added sense of need and importance with the numbers.

Bill, bring us up to speed. Buford defensive end. Ejic Houston will commit this evening on his birthday. The floor is yours.

As you mentioned, Dan, it is his 18th birthday. He told me long ago that he was planning to wait until that 18th birthday to announce.

There are a few times all the way that people thought, well, maybe he would go ahead and just go ahead and get it done with earlier, but that didn't happen.

He has stayed true to his process. He's going to announce, you know, we'll be tonight, but he practiced Buford practices later today.

Then in the Buford high school for all team meeting room, he is going to announce his decision at 650 Eastern time.

And obviously, I'm sure all of the teammates will be there at all. Also there will be some 247 sports people, Benjamin Wolpe, who does a great job with our Georgia site.
