Texas Tech basketball transfer portal tracker: Who's in, who's out for Red Raiders?
The Texas Tech basketball team had a successful debut season under coach Grant McCasland, who will now try to achieve even more in Year 2.
The Red Raiders are coming off a 23-11 overall season that saw the team go 11-7 in Big 12 play to finish third in the conference standings, earning a No. 6 seed in the 2024 NCAA Tournament.
The transfer portal officially opened March 18 and runs through May 1. During this time, college basketball players are able to put their into into the portal, be contacted and recruited by other schools and find new homes, if they choose.
Much of McCasland's first squad was assembled through the transfer portal. With no current commitments from the 2024 high school recruiting class, look for the Red Raiders to build through the portal once again.
Here's a breakdown of the Texas Tech roster as it stands. Keep this story bookmarked as it will be updated with each addition and departure.
