Basketball Penn State Basketball Adds Talor Battle As New Assistant Coach

Finally some good news coming in for basketball. Jimmie Martelli was such a solid addition to the staff, but having Battle come in makes it all worth while. Taylor should be a good addition to Rhoades, and help develop our new point guard, and hopefully help some of our shooting woes.
 
Just seen where Psu will be cutting both basketball programs unless they actually start winning per Mr Kraft

It's "I just saw," guys.

"I just seen" sounds like you just got off your sister or cousin (who could be the same person).

Does the team need more coaches, or should potential new coaches' salaries be better spent on NIL for transfer big men.......

I don't think it's addition. Didn't one of the assistants leave creating a vacancy? However, I do wonder if there has been any info on who are strong portal possibilities for PSU to sign? Is Kraft trying to get some additional NIL directed toward men's bball?

Yes, Jimmy Martelli left to join his brother at VCU creating the opening for Talor.

Thanks for the love on the article! I don't think the problem is necessarily the coaching staff or the transfers they have brought in. Every year the team is losing depth from the guys they recruited. Guys like Kanye Clary, Jameel Brown, and now Miles Goodman, Hudson Ward, and Jahvin Carter all transferred out and were expected to have big roles. Work needs to be done to retain the current roster after each season. Best way to do that is to get young guys more playing time.

PSU has Konan & Nzeh returning at center but they really need a PF to complement them.

Konan declared for the NFL draft, keeping the option to return to college basketball if he's not evaluated as high as he'd like...
