Interview With LaVar Arrington: Mentoring Comes Full Circle

As we prepare for the start of what is expected to be another exciting Penn State football season, we were able to catch up with Penn State football all-time great LaVar Arrington. Arrington was in preparation for the start of his first season as head coach of the Maranatha Minutemen in Pasadena, California. It was an honor to speak to him and while I didn’t want to take too much of his valuable time, once he got started on the topic of Penn State football, his momentum carried us for over a half-hour.

We began by discussing his work with young football players, and one player in particular that is set to make a splash for the Lions in the near future.
