It's a new era for Penn State basketball.
Baseball season is upon us.
And, Penn State football is entering a new era with plenty of talent and questions.
On this week's episode of the Penn Stated podcast, host Donnie Collins chats with The Reading Eagle Penn State beat writer Rich Scarcella about Mike Rhoades, Penn State's new men's basketball coach -- a native of Mahanoy City and a graduate of Mahanoy Area High School, located just a few miles outside of Hazleton.
Does Rhoades' area roots make him a bet to stay at Penn State for the long term?
Donnie and Rich also talk about replacing Ji'Ayir Brown in the defensive scheme this spring, and the void he leaves as a leader. Who are the players most likely to step up in that role? Donnie and Rich discuss that, as well.
They also couldn't resist talking some Yankees baseball.
