Podward State: Season 12, Episode 2 Ft. Kayden Mingo
In the second episode of season 12 of Podward State, hosts Michael Siroty and Keeley Lamm were joined by Penn State men’s basketball’s highest-ranked recruit in program history, Kayden Mingo.
Mingo, a Long Island, New York, native and four-star combo guard committed to Mike Rhoades and the Nittany Lions in November 2024.
Mingo chatted about growing up and shooting hoops with his brother, a typical day in the life, and aspirations for his time at Penn State — highlighted by Big Ten Freshman of the Year honors and a national championship.
To wrap up the episode, Siroty and Lamm were joined by Podward State special guest Kyra Birmingham for some typical pod banter.
