Texas Tech men’s basketball is staying busy this offseason as Head Coach Grant McCasland looks to build a roster capable of contending in the Big 12 next season. With the departure of several upperclassmen and a few key names entering the transfer portal, the Red Raiders are now focused on retooling through a mix of high school recruiting and portal acquisitions.
Among the top names on Texas Tech’s radar is Donovan Dent, the dynamic guard from New Mexico who lit up the Mountain West last season with over 20 points and 6 assists per game. Sources confirm that Tech has reached out to Dent, hoping to lure his elite playmaking to Lubbock.
In high school recruiting, the Red Raiders had their eyes on Kingston Flemings, a five-star standout from Texas. While Flemings ultimately committed to Houston, Texas Tech remains active in pursuing top-tier high school talent, including Keonte Greybear, a rising junior ranked No. 79 nationally. Greybear has expressed strong interest in an official visit.
Texas Tech also recently made headlines by connecting with Ryan Jones Jr., a freshman transfer from Virginia Tech. Though he had limited minutes last season, Jones Jr. is viewed as a high-upside prospect with raw athleticism and potential to shine in a new system.
With eyes set on returning to NCAA tournament contention, Texas Tech fans can expect more roster news in the coming weeks as the Red Raiders continue to target impact players to fill critical roles.
