Listen: Episode 1 of ‘Joe and the Fatman,’ a Brand New Penn State Podcast

Welcome to “Joe and the Fatman,’ a brand new Penn State sports podcast.

In episode one, I, Joe Smeltzer, team up with Kyle Golik, a national columnist for MikeFarrellSports.com, to talk about what’s a pretty big week for Penn State football.

Wednesday night was National Signing Day, and we discussed Penn State’s class, where James Franklin and company did well in signing it and where things could have been better.

We also discussed Saturday’s matchup with Oregon and, yes, we did give our predictions.
