Texas A&M lands former Kansas guard from the transfer portal

Texas A&M lands former Kansas guard from the transfer portal

USA Today8 hours ago
So far this offseason, new Texas A&M basketball head coach Bucky McMillan has already landed 11 players from the transfer portal. At the same time, 2025 signee Jeremiah Green and standout international shooting guard Rubén Domínguez have led to 13 total additions. To reach the 15-player roster threshold, McMillan's goal this fall was to add two more veterans to the 2025 roster.
On Sunday morning, the 14th player was added to the roster, as McMillan has landed a commitment from Kansas guard Noah Shelby, who will join former Kansas forward Zach Clemence and shooting guard Rylan Griffen, two of the program's first transfer additions earlier this year. Shelby is a McKinney, Texas, native and a four-star prospect in the 2022 recruiting class.
Shelby first committed to Vanderbilt before transferring to Rice, then walking on with the Jayhawks, where he averaged 3.9 points while shooting 35% from the field and 33% from 3-point range. A top-20 ranked guard in the 2022 cycle, Shelby is still considered one of the better 3-point shooters and will be entering a fast-paced offense built around shooting efficiency, providing the Texas native a chance to find a place in the rotation.
Shelby has 44 games of experience under his belt, which is highly valuable to a new roster under a first-year head coach.

Sonny Dykes talks about opener against UNC, Bill Belichick

See what Sonny Dykes had to say about UNC's opener against UNC We are under a month away from kickoff for the college football season, and for the North Carolina Tar Heels, they are ushering in a new era under Bill Belichick. The Tar Heels will play host to TCU on Labor Day in primetime as they are the standalone game for ESPN. It will be a huge game for both programs as Chapel Hill should be electric for the game. But as we continue to countdown the days, TCU head coach Sonny Dykes had a comment on the opener. Dykes spoke at the Texas High School Coaches Convention recently, calling the opener against UNC 'interesting'. "We have an interesting opener against North Carolina on Labor Day," Dykes said. "That will be a big challenge for us getting ready for a tough road game against an opponent that's obviously got a pretty impressive resume when it comes to coaching in Bill Belichick. "There's going to be a whole lot of things we're not going to have the opportunity to prepare for and a lot of unknowns. We've got to make sure we do a good job making sure our players are ready to go play." Dykes wasn't taking a shot at UNC or Belichick at all. Instead, he was praising the head coach in his first year at the college level. It's going to be a tough challenge for the Tar Heels as TCU is no slouch. But getting off to a good start will be key as well for Belichick and his team.
