The 2025 Texas Longhorns roster continued to take shape on Monday with an NCAA transfer portal commitment from former Arizona State Sun Devils right-handed pitcher Thomas Burns.
A Hortonville (Wisc.) native who ranked as a top-10 player in the state and No. 500 overall by Perfect Game in the 2023 recruiting class, Burns immediately stepped into the Sun Devils rotation as the No. 1 starter, going five one-hit, one-run innings with seven strikeouts. Burns struggled in his final start in allowing five runs on seven hits in 4.2 innings against Washington State.
