Penn State men's basketball is revamping its roster with the addition of guard Jay Rodgers from Central Connecticut State, marking the first commitment from the transfer portal this offseason. Rodgers, who averaged 11.0 points and played 29.3 minutes per game last season, brings valuable experience as the Nittany Lions seek to strengthen their lineup after the loss of key players. The team is losing three players, including Freddie Dilione V, and has seen young talent like Kayden Mingo depart after just one season. In addition to Rodgers, Penn State has also brought in European players Roko Prkačin and François Wibaut, but still needs to fill five scholarship spots as the transfer window remains open. Head coach Mike Rhoades is actively looking for additional recruits to enhance the team's prospects for the upcoming season.
