    Did someone know the Saban news a little earlier than everyone else?

    Holup, we can expect a transfer in to announce soon?

    Great game, but I will say the trend of the opponent's best player going off for a career night is getting a bit concerning.

    Hope the faith is rewarded with RJ staying. He has tons of potential and has flashed it in both seasons he's been here. Seems like Brad sees that potential and really wants him to stick around given that he keeps giving RJ chances.

    Yeah I think it's funny too because Penn State NIL ain't going anywhere but football and wrestling. Basketball is playing 4th fiddle behind football, wrestling, and hockey over in Happy Valley.

    I could be mistaken, but I believe we last wore them at Rutgers in December 2020. I don't mind because I don't think they look that good, and we never win in them either.

    I believe you, I'm just wondering why others aren't saying anything about Nance right now. Is this a pretty quiet recruitment?

    Clearly this means we are getting both.

    I heard Lieb was gonna start at the 5 and Goode was going to start at the 2, which we all know is Goode's natural position.

    Do you have any insight to who the staff pursues more between him and Nance? Nance's offensive skillset is better, but Mayer's defensive versatility is pretty, pretty good. Plus, he has a championship background and has seen firsthand what it takes to win in March.

    I'd still take Nance over Mayer, but I think the staff has to pursue both in case one stays in the draft.

    So uh, that Matthew Mayer news is pretty significant, right? Curious what people think of him and how he would potentially fit here. Take him over Nance? Try and get both still?

    I'd like Courtney Ramey quite a bit.

    I can't assume Nance until he's actually here. The slash is there as an indicator that if he transfers in, he will be the starter. As of now, that is an if.
