Seth Lundy is joining John Harrar, Myreon Jones, Isaiah Brockington, Trent Buttrick, and Jamari Wheeler in the NCAA Transfer Portal, according to sources.

Lundy had a crazy inconsistent sophomore year campaign as the final of the (now dead) Roman Catholic pipeline that featured Lamar Stevens, Tony Carr, Shep Garner and Nazeer Bostick.  Lundy had 32 points in a nail-biting victory over (NCAA Tournament team) VCU back in December but had an ice cold stretch from the middle of January through all of February before going OFF in the comeback win at Maryland to end the regular season.

Seth can score but got in foul trouble constantly, likely as a result of PSU’s lack of depth down low, forcing him to guard bigger players than he probably should have been guarding.

He’s the sixth Nittany Lion to enter the portal.

The 2021-2022 Penn State Men’s Basketball Roster currently looks like:

PG — Sam Sessoms (20.6 mpg in 2020/2021)

SG — Daillon Johnson (1.9)

SF — Myles Dread (24.3)

PF — Pat Kelly (2.4)

C — Abdou Tsimbila (4.6) Bench: DJ Gordon (3.5), Caleb Dorsey (2.2) Andy Christos (0.0, also who?), Elijah Hutchins-Everett (incoming freshman)

That’s it.

Penn State Baskeball currently has eight  players.

Now, obviously new head coach Micah Shrewsberry will be bringing in some of his guys, but he has almost half a roster to fill in the transfer portal, assuming none of our players decide to come back.  Minimum 7 players is a big ask for a coach that’s not even in State College yet as he’s finishing the season with Purdue in the NCAA Tournament.  That’s only 26.03% of our scoring, 20.82% of our rebounding and 28.35% of our assists returning next year.

#theclimb may be dead but boy do we have an uphill climb to even compete in the B1G next year.
