Penn transfer Wyatt Henseler re-commits to Texas A&M

Top Texas A&M transfer Wyatt Henseler re-commits to the Aggies after recently opening his recruitment

With the news of Jim Schlossnagle leaving, not only did several players jump in the portal to protect themselves, but recruits also decided to re-open their recruitment while waiting for the next coach to be named. Top transfer Wyatt Henseler was one of those recruits, and he drew strong interest from Texas and LSU.

For Texas A&M fans, the news of Henseler’s decision to stay is a reason to be optimistic. Not only did they see a majority of the 2024 team core withdraw from the portal, but Henseler also confirmed he is still headed to Aggieland after opening his recruitment during the coaching search.

New head baseball coach Mike Earley has been on fire getting the band back together and landing key portal recruits in his short time in his new position. This is a testament to players’ trust in him and the rumors about his reputation as a popular coach in baseball circles, which should instill confidence in the fans.

The 2025 roster is shaping up to make another deep postseason run, and Henseler will be a major part of this team.

Where LSU baseball stands with top remaining uncommitted transfer portal targets

The Tigers are not done in the transfer portal just yet.

The LSU baseball team has already added quite a transfer portal haul since the conclusion of the 2024 season, but coach [autotag]Jay Johnson[/autotag] isn’t done yet.

The Tigers remain in the mix for several of the top uncommitted players who remain in the portal. Now that the college baseball season is in the books, expect things to sort themselves out quickly for players who have yet to make decisions.

LSU will hope those decisions prove beneficial for it, and it is trending for several of them. It isn’t all good news as the Tigers are seemingly out of contention for East Carolina’s [autotag]Zac Root[/autotag], the top pitcher in the portal, according to LSU Country’s Zack Nagy.

But all is not lost. LSU is in play for one of the other top arms in the portal, Tennessee freshman left-hander [autotag]Matthew Dallas[/autotag], according to Nagy. Dallas is a former top 100 prospect who had a 1-0 record and 4.76 ERA this season.

The Tigers also still have a shot at [autotag]Kaeden Kent[/autotag], a Texas A&M transfer who batted .327 in 2024 as a contact hitter. Kent, like the other Aggie players in the portal, could return now that the team has announced that former hitting coach Matthew Earley will take the head coaching job.

LSU will hope it can benefit in a few ways from the tumult in College Station as it has also reached out to Penn third base transfer [autotag]Wyatt Henseler[/autotag], the Ivy League Player of the Year. He committed to Texas A&M as a graduate transfer in September, but he may be reconsidering that decision following the coaching change.

Nagy also listed [autotag]Connor Harrison[/autotag], a catcher from St. Mary’s, and [autotag]Gavin Kilen[/autotag], an infielder from Louisville, as other names to watch as Johnson looks to complete another impressive transfer class.

Texas A&M baseball receives excellent news from the transfer portal

Ivy League Player of the Year Wyatt Henseler reaffirms his commitment to Texas A&M

Following a Super Regional series win over Oregon, and a commitment from transfer Matt Bergevin out of Fairfield, the Texas A&M baseball team will also add Ivy League Player of the Year Wyatt Henseler.

The Penn Alum committed to the Aggies last September, but after a strong final year, there was some speculation about whether he would enter the 2024 MLB Draft.

All of that was put to rest on Tuesday when Henseler announced via his social media that he would opt out of the draft to join the A&M baseball team. Below, you can see his post on “X”

Henseler was a dominant force in the Ivy League, named the unanimous Player of the Year and First Team All-Ivy. He leaves the Quakers as the all-time leader in the following categories:

  • Hits – 232
  • Runs – 64
  • Doubles – 50
  • Total Bases – 452
  • Home Runs – 54
  • RBIs – 189

Texas A&M has had some recent success with its Ivy League transfers, with Hayden Schott (Columbia) and Jackson Appel (Penn) being major contributors to the Aggies’ run to the College World Series. Hopefully, Henseler can have the same type of success once in Aggieland.
