Men’s Basketball jumps to No. 4 in The AP poll

The Longhorns earn their highest ranking in the wire service poll since Jan. 11, 2021.

AUSTIN, Texas — The University of Texas Men's Basketball team is ranked No. 4 in The Associated Press' Top 25, the wire service announced Monday. This marks the highest ranking in The AP poll for the Longhorns since UT was ranked No. 4 in consecutive polls on Jan. 4 and Jan. 11, 2021.

The Longhorns, fresh off a 19-point home win against then-No. 2/2 Gonzaga last Wednesday (Nov. 16), jumped seven spots from last week's ranking of No. 11.

Texas (3-0) returns to the court when it faces Northern Arizona later tonight as part of the Leon Black Classic.
