One of the busiest teams in the NCAA Transfer Portal early this offseason is the Texas basketball program, with new head coach Chris Beard getting to work early in his tenure on the Forty Acres. Texas experienced a lot of roster attrition and volatility on the recruiting trail for their 2021 class following the departure of former sixth-year head coach Shaka Smart and the subsequent hiring of the former Texas Tech Red Raiders head coach Beard in his place.
In just the past three weeks alone, the Longhorns have lost every single signee that they previously had in their 2021 recruiting class and saw the movement of more than four players in the transfer portal.
