For the last several years Frank McKee has been teaching a course at La Salle University about William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania, and Sam Hinkie, the former GM of the 76ers and the architect of what became known as The Process. McKee, the Director of the American studies program at La Salle, says the approach Hinkie took in building the Sixers has a lot of similarities to what Penn went through as the leader of Pennsylvania and the planner behind Philadelphia. We wanted to know everything about this so we asked Frank McKee to come on the podcast to talk about how Sam Hinkie and William Penn both learned to trust the process in Philadelphia.
