With three weeks until the Texas Longhorns open the 2024-25 basketball season in Las Vegas against the Ohio State Buckeyes, head coach Rodney Terry’s team was voted No. 19 in the preseason AP Top 25 poll and picked to finish seventh in the SEC by a panel of SEC and national media members.
As is common now in college basketball, the Longhorns turned over the roster from last season, adding six players from the NCAA transfer portal and three high school prospects, including guard Tre Johnson, the No. 5 player in the 2024 recruiting class, to supplement four returning players.
The national media is marginally higher on Texas than the SEC preseason poll panel with the Horns ranking as the No. 6 team in the SEC in the AP Top 25 with some major differences from the conference poll — although Tennessee is picked to win the conference, the Volunteers are No. 12 nationally in the AP poll, behind No. 2 Alabama and No. 11 Auburn. In the conference poll, the Crimson Tide were picked fifth.
