Penn State has a new initiative to raise money for scholarships

On Monday, Penn State unveiled a new initiative to raise money for the program. Reporter Nate Bauer detailed the new initiative, which includes putting your name on the seats in the Lasch Building auditorium. 

New to the program, the Nittany Lions’ football excellence fund is opening the opportunity to fans this summer to put their names on the chairbacks of the team auditorium at the Lasch Building. Available on a first-come, first-served basis.

We'll discuss what Bauer knows about the program and what group of players it helps to support. 

Transfer portal and recruiting news

Penn State hosted former Rutgers linebacker Mohamed Toure last week, and this week they're hosting linebacker Amare Campbell. We'll discuss what we know about the visits and what's next for the team's pursuit of talent in the spring transfer portal window.

Now that the portal window is closed, we'll also discuss which losses hurt the team heading out the door this year and which are natural attrition for the team's roster management. 

Next, we'll discuss the latest additions to the program, which are part of the next recruiting Class. Reporter Sean Fitz gives his thoughts on linebackers Terry Wiggins and Mathieu Lamah, who committed on Friday and Monday. How do they fit into the program, and what does it mean for the team's overall recruiting efforts? We'll get his thoughts on that, and what the two players bring to the table. 

Finally, top cornerback target Brandon Arrington joined the program for the season's first official visit this year. We'll discuss what Fitz knows about the visit and what Arrington would mean to the program's cornerback recruiting efforts for 2026. 

 Vibes Check 

Finally, we'll end the show by discussing the latest Penn State news from a different angle. Our reporters work on facts and information, so we're giving them a chance to relax and just give us a gut check on several topics. We're calling the new segment a Vibes Check. We'll discuss their thoughts on the team's recent climb to number one in off-season rankings, the outlook for the defense, and more.
