We're joined by Matt Shaffer this week to preview the 3rd consecutive year of Penn State Alumni participation in TBT, the million-dollar winner-take-all basketball tournament that will be starting up again July 18th.

We're honored to be joined once again by Player/GM John Harrar and Head Coach Ross Condon of the Happy Valley Hoopers to talk about last year's miracle run all the way to the quarterfinals and what they have in store for this year's tournament.

Boys local to State College in grades 4-9 can enroll in the Centre Basketball Academy sports camp to be coached by the Happy Valley Hoopers July 14-18. Sign ups can be completed at this link:

Yanic Konan Niederhauser is staying in the NBA draft and we're back to break down what that means both for him (yay) and for Penn State's '25-'26 season (not so yay).

Does this really change the outlook for Penn State's season? Will YKN get a guaranteed NBA contract? Listen to find out our thoughts!

We're back to breakdown a couple new additions to the roster for next season but does it really change the projections for the team?

We spend most of the time discussing YKN's rising NBA draft stock and tackle the question: should he stay or should he go?

Finally, we have some fun with Apple Reviews and ChatGPT

Well we don't have much to talk about but we're back regardless with a new episode.

We talk about the addition of Cincinnati transfer Josh Reed but, more importantly, the lack of additions. What this means for the prospects of a successful year 3 for Mike Rhoades and what we want to see the staff accomplish in the next few months (aside from the obvious of just adding players).

We're back to recap the week that was (not) for Penn State Basketball, including Miles Goodman's new home and a big swing and miss in the transfer portal.

However, the bulk of the episode will be spent in conversation with 2025 NIT champion and former All Big Ten Penn State guard Dan Earl. We talk about the Chattanooga Mocs' miraculous late season run and take a trip down memory lane with the former 4 year starter and longtime assistant.

The 2024-25 College Basketball Season officially came to a close on Monday night and we can begin to look forward (or not) to year 3 of the Mike Rhoades era at PSU. We spend some extra time this episode diving into the longevity (or lack thereof) of the top freshman recruits from years past and wonder aloud if this is a sign of what's to come not just at Penn State but across the college basketball landscape.
