Wake that ass up in the morning.The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody.It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God.We are The Breakfast Club.Lorne La Rosa filling in for Jess.And we are taping this on Halloween.That's why Charlamagne and myself have on these costumes.
I don't have a costume.It's regular.
All right, well, this is regular, this is regular then, this is regular, all right.
These ways be snatching a one piece on the regular, I know that's right.
This is regular then, all right.
Now I run a company, y'all.
All right, well, we got a special guest in the building.We got the brother Kaden Mingo, welcome.Thank you.How you feeling, man?
It's a pleasure to be here, it's really a blessing.
Happy to have you, man.Tell them who Kaden Mingo is for those who don't know.
Kaden Mingo, young kid from Long Island, Farmingdale, New York.Got two brothers, two loving, great parents.Just a young kid trying to be great the way he does.
Amazing basketball player.Four star combo guard.
Yeah.I would say point guard, but you know, it's a blessing to really be noticed as, you know, with the stars next to your name and everything and have my name continue to rise and rise.
So today's a very special day, but before we get into that, let's talk about how you got into basketball and the love for basketball.Because basketball has changed, I'm sure, for your pops.
Back in the day, playing the part, and that's how you got your skills up.Nowadays, it's a lot of training, and training, and more training.
So let's talk about how you started your love for basketball and what made you want to put in the effort and time to do it.
My pops never really played basketball.He was more of a football player.So I ain't never getting none of that from him really.He would always be in the gym with us and help us.
The athleticism yeah.And then when I was younger.Damn pops.He wasn't really much of an athlete.
But I mean did he play, I don't even know.His jersey was the cleanest jersey boy.
And then when I was younger, my parents always just had us, you know, with my older brother, because he played basketball, he was growing up, he was in high school when we was younger, and I would always, you know, me and my little brother would be running around in the middle of the games and stuff, playing one-on-one versus each other, so I would really say, you know, just looking up to him as a role model, that's when I wanted to play basketball, that's where I got it from.
When you fall in love with it, though.
Yeah, when you take it serious. Probably around middle school, around middle school.
You know, seeing your name get out there more and more, and more people notice you, it becomes something you, you know, begin to really have more of a love for, I would say.
I always wonder how you keep it from feeling like a job.Like, when you are in the position that you in, you know, you going to college, I'm sure you got pro aspirations.How do you keep it from feeling like work?
Just reminding yourself that you do this for fun.That's why you started playing for fun, and it's just a sport.It's not who you are or anything.It's just something you do.
And what about your grades now?You know, a lot of times your grades get, you don't really focus on school because you play basketball so much.How are your grades and how are you making sure you are focused?
Yeah, my pop's a principal, so he don't.
Oh, your pop's a principal?He don't play that?
Nah, he don't play that.I've been on enroll every quarter in high school, so I would say I'm pretty solid with all that.
You said something just now that's powerful.You said basketball is just something you do.It's not who you are.I read a lot of Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, The Power of Intention, and that's something that he always says.You are not what you do.
A lot of us get caught up in that.When did you learn that mentality?
it's still something I work on.It could become stressful with the ups and downs.I would say I'm still working on it, but that's something my parents taught me.
One of my high school coaches always emphasized, Coach J, he always tells us that and reminds us.So I would say probably ninth grade is when I got introduced to it.My parents always let me know about the concept of it.
What players inspired you coming up?Even right now, who are your biggest inspirations?
NBA players.Or retired players, either or.Yeah.I was blessed enough to have Melo in my circle and play with Kyan since young, so I would say he's taught me a lot and he's took me under his shoulder.
And then right now, I like Tyrese Maxey a lot with Philly and how he operates and how he was able to, at such a young age, become one of the faces of the program.
What do you like about Maxi's game?
Everything.He could really score, he'd pass, he'd play on or off the ball.I think it's similar to my game.
You won co-MVP, you mentioned Kyan.You won co-MVP at the Aces Hustle & Hearts Classic along with Kyan.Winning that, what was that like for you?What did that mean to you?
Uh, it meant a lot, you know, with the aces, uh, with the history of how many players have came through and, uh, it was a good game.It was, uh, it was a good thing that we won the game.Cause it was real close, hard fought.
And, um, I really appreciate them for recognizing what I did and how I played and congratulating me with that award.Do you feel like it should have been a coin VP?
Or you felt like you just deserved it all?Uh, I felt like the coin VP was good.I ain't played well as also.I ain't busting ass.It's crazy to think I used to be taller than Kyan.
He was never taller than Kanye.He came out the womb taller than you.
He came out the womb taller than you.What year was that?
How long ago was that? 2000.
11.Kayan what, 15?Probably 15, 14 years ago.Kayan's 17.17, well that's probably 16 years ago.You've never been that tall.
He never had to stand on his own to go to the cabinets.That's crazy.
What's y'all relationship like now?
You and Kayan?Yeah, we cool.That's my guy.You know, real close with him.On and off the court.That's my dude.That's him.What advice does Melo give y'all?
He just tells us to be ourselves and don't change for anybody and just stay confident through everything and just be level-headed.
Is New York full of distractions, man?I feel like New York would be very full of distractions for young ballplayers like yourself.
You could say so.A lot of different parties and different things going on and people trying to get to you when you start to get a name a little bit.But I would say you just gotta stay focused and keep doing what got you to where you are.
The beauty of it is, it seem like you got a strong circle, you know?I'm sure they keep you grounded.
Now, you made the decision to say that you wanted to announce what school you wanted to go here on The Breakfast Club.
What made you want to make that decision to say, I want to do it, not necessarily a conventional way, but to come up here and do it on The Breakfast Club?I mean, we appreciate it, but I'm just curious to what the reason was.
It's a first.This has never happened.Nah, never happened.That's one of the reasons it never happened before.You know, there's been celebrities up here, which I was really blessed to have the opportunity.
It was just an idea that me and my agency came up with, and then we just made it work from there.As soon as they asked me, I said, yeah, for sure.
Your top finalists were Georgia, Penn State, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest.What is it about those schools that got them to be your top four choices?
Definitely the relationship with the staff, I would say.With all the people in those rooms, and you know, the type of people that they are.
You know, having conversations with them, you could get a little bit of a sense of who they are, and the fit with the school, the opportunity ahead, and just feeling somewhere, like with those four schools, I feel like I could thrive at any one of them.
And when you sittin' around with your circle, like when you talkin' about things that the school has, what's a non-negotiable for you?Like, yo, this school has to have this for me to go?The girls?Nah.Nah, nah.
Doesn't all of these schools have girls?None of these are just one, like, don't call it.
You know what I mean when I say the girls.The girls.The difference between girls and the girls.Nah, I got it.You know what I'm sayin'?
What's wrong with you, man?
Come on.He ain't never been nowhere.
OK.What was the question again?
What does the school have to have? We never really talked about that, but I would just say, I feel like as far as the coaches go, I feel like me and us as a family, we feel like we have to have somebody in position and guiding me.
That's a God-fearing man, I would say.
Dope, dope.I do have a question.A lot of these players like yourself go to these colleges and they want it done.Is that what you're thinking right now?Is that what's on your mind?
I would love to go on and done, but it's just all God's time, however long it takes.Or even if I don't play in the NBA, whatever's in store for me.
What about the academic side?
You know what you would wanna study?I was thinking finance and psychology.
All right, well, the time is now.Ladies and gentlemen, Kaden Mingo is about to decide and disclose what school he wants to go to.Before you do that, do high school students- Y'all ain't got the hats?
Y'all don't got all four of the hats? Did this all be on TV?
Oh, they like we got our stuff.Mind your business.
Heard you.They got all that stuff right now.Well, Kaden Mingo is about to decide what college he is going to take his talents to.It is between Georgia, Penn State, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest.Let's give the mic to Kaden Mingo.
What do you think?This is big.This is big.
Next year I'll be attending.
Okay, where are we going?
That's it, I got my hat, don't play with me.Penn State, Penn State, Penn State.
Come on family, stand up.Make sure you get all the whole family.Congratulations.What was it, why, of all the four schools, Penn State won you over, what was the deciding factor for Penn State?
You know, just like we talked about, I felt like it was the best fit, best opportunity, best style of play, and also the best relationship with the coaches, especially Coach Rose, the head coach.
I just feel like this is the best place I could thrive and the place I could thrive the most at.
You got any partners there, like anybody that's already playing there?
Already playing?Nah, not really.Mason Blackwood coming with me, though.That's my guy.He played in New York vs. New York with me.
So y'all gonna make some noise next year, then.Yeah, yeah, we gonna try.
Well, make sure you send us some jerseys and congratulations.For sure.Thanks a lot.I love it, man.
Don't think too far into the future.I know that you got NBA aspirations, but you got to go bust ass at Penn State first I got a friend that went to Penn State and then when he played there he went right to NFL.
Yeah, Devon still Yep, so it's a great school Wow well ladies and gentlemen Caden Mingo if you haven't heard his name look him up from Long Island Four-star guard combo he is going to Penn State next year and make sure you support this man
And it's dope, you guys seem like you got a real stable situation, you got your family, you got your girl, you're gonna be good.Just stay away from them white women up there.And he got God, he said God fearing.Say that again.I'm just saying.
How you know you got a white woman now?Don't be a stupid.I don't, you're right, but just, I'm just telling you.
Do you have a girlfriend white?Stay away from them white women up there.Don't let him, don't, don't.Listen, did you learn a lesson today?Stay away from people like that, exactly.
I'm telling them the truth, okay?They gonna be praying on you.I'm telling you, he know that, I know, you putting them, I know his daddy putting them on. Listen to your father and your mom.
We're happy for you.Congratulations.
