Oh, Hello: VCU Point Guard Ace Baldwin Commits to Penn State

Penn State basketball just got better, folks. A whole lot better.

Former VCU standout and Atlantic-10 Player of the Year, Adrian “Ace” Baldwin Jr., confirmed what many people had speculated for a few days now — that he will be playing basketball for the Penn State Nittany Lions in 2023-2024.

When Baldwin first entered the portal, there was a valid level of concern as to whether he’d follow Mike Rhoades to Happy Valley. According to just about anyone who does transfer portal rankings, Baldwin was a consensus top ten player in the portal. With that being the case, there was going to be some serious interest from big time basketball programs.
