Texas freshman guard Rowan Brumbaugh announced his intention to enter the NCAA transfer portal this week. He becomes the first Longhorn to hit the portal this offseason.
Brumbaugh is a former four-star prospect from the class of 2022. He spent his freshman season redshirting as Texas had a strong group of experienced guards ahead of him.
247Sports Composite listed Brumbaugh as the No. 89 player in the 2022 cycle. He was a late signing for Chris Beard and the Longhorns in Dec. of 2021 after flipping from Northwestern.
Brumbaugh entering the portal leaves Texas with Arterio Morris as the lone scholarship guard on the roster. Starting guard Tyrese Hunter is questionable to return as he tests NBA Draft waters. Rodney Terry will have to utilize the transfer portal and high school ranks to build his backcourt for next season.
Texas point guard Rowan Brumbaugh will transfer, source told @Stadium. Top 100 player who chose to redshirt this past season because he was behind Marcus Carr and Tyrese Hunter.
Pass-first guy who was recruited to Austin by Chris Beard.
