Five Penn State Basketbal players are still in the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Where will they end up?

Time to bring out the VBR Crystal Ball … Round 2 and predict the destination for the remaining five former Penn State Basketball players!

The Razorbacks have been linked with Jones since he announced his entrance in the portal.  You can’t underestimate the Alabama-Arkansas rivalry, and now they are likely the best two teams in the SEC with young up and coming coaches (Bama with Oats and Musselman in Arkansas), you have to imagine Arkansas would love to go up against the Crimson Tide with one of their own.
