This is an IHeart podcast.

All right, welcome at.

Lake Hick is live.

It is Thursday night. It is August 6th, the year of our Lord 2020, August 6th. You guys know what that means? No, looking around the studio, which is empty. You don't. Happy birthday to Dan Paid, also known in Georgia circles as my father, August 6th already. Now, I assume he had hoped to have an SEC schedule in front of him already by the time

his birthday arrived.

We can't give him that as a present yet.

So let's talk about what we do know tonight.

We do know Big Ten schedule.

We do know ACC schedule.

We know Miami is red hot on the recruiting trail and maybe even just on the football field this year.

More on that in just a second.

And we also know some guys are opting out.

So there is part excitement out there, part terror, and as usual, it's never as bad or as great as things seem.

So we're here to make sense of it all for you tonight.

You'll probably leave here a lot more relaxed of it all for you tonight. You'll probably

leave here a lot more relaxed than you were when you came. So I'm happy to have you here.

My name is Josh Pate. This is Late Kick Live. If you haven't already, subscribe to the 24-7

Sports YouTube channel. We will be just flooding you, and I mean flooding you, with content

all throughout the season, maybe even including some things

that you haven't seen yet, some projects that haven't even been debuted.

You ever look at the way debuted is spelled by the way? It doesn't look like it makes sense.

So we're going to dive into a lot tonight. I've also got a Q&A at the very end of the show
