  • Am I missing something?

    The guys were talking about tight end and just completely skipped over Khalil Dinkins. Do they know something we don’t? From what we’ve seen it’ll be him in 2025 right? Also they said there was no qb in the 2025 class but bekkem Kritza is definitely committed…I feel like the guys don’t actually keep in touch with the team they just come up with hot takes about James Franklin.

  • Jones

    Jones again went on and on about how great Rutgers was and how it would be hard for PSU…now when he gets back on he’ll say well it was just Rutgers. Dude is miserable.

  • Too much politics not enough PSU football

    Mediocre content supposedly about Penn State football but this makes up a minority of the content. There is more content about other conferences and college football in general and the NBA than there is about Penn State football. That would be tolerable but the marijuana commercial that runs every three minutes makes it difficult to listen to the mediocre content. And now they’re running a pro abortion commercial. Too much politics! I’m out.
