    Oregon State transfer PG Jordan Pope commits to Texas
    The Texas Longhorns added a huge piece to 2024-25 team this afternoon.
    Oregon State transfer PG/CG Jordan Pope committed to Texas over Texas A&M ten minutes ago. 
    With Pope in the fold, the Longhorns will have constructed a back court that is versatile, multiple ball handlers, multiple shooters from three, size to play big, athleticism, depth and very good offensive feel. The Longhorns will have a deeper and bigger backcourt in 2024-25. 
    Jordan Pope by the numbers
    Pope (6-1.5, 170) averaged 15.1 points, 2.6 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game over 64 games (63 starts) in two seasons. He connected on 43.9% from the field, 37.4% from three and 86.1% from the foul line. He starred as a sophomore averaging 17.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 2023-24. That included 45.1% from the field, 37.1% from three (66 makes) and 87.9% from the free throw line (94 of 107). 
    Pope scored 20 or more in 12 games during the 2023-24 season. He scored a season high 31, including a game winner, against Arizona. 
    His numbers in Pac-12 play included 17.9 points per game with 41 made three's.

    I was told on Tuesday that Jordan had decided to stay at Texas. Obviously, that decision flipped from what I was told yesterday.
    Jordan is a class of 2022 signee and was currently running 3rd team at the star position. Even though he was 3rd team, Jordan was considered a valuable member of the Texas secondary.
    Jordan is the second member of the secondary to declare an intent to transfer in as many days. Returning starting cornerback Terrance Brooks announced a similar decision on Tuesday.
