Where Texas baseball transfers landed from the portal

July 4, 2025 by Burnt Orange Nation

Oliver Service/X

With the portal window closed, many former Longhorns have found their new destinations.

During the postseason NCAA transfer portal window, the Texas Longhorns turned over a significant portion of the roster under first-year head coach Jim Schlossnagle, ranging from players who saw little or no playing time in 2025 to several starters who struggled at the plate.

With the portal window now closed, here’s a look at where the 16 former Longhorns have landed.


Outfielder Matt Scott — Oregon

The former top-200 prospect, Scott only appeared in five games as a freshman for Texas before becoming the first player to enter the portal after the Austin Regional loss to UTSA.

Scott announced his commitment to Oregon on June 24.

Ranked as a top-40 prospect in the 2024 recruiting class by Perfect Game out of Olive Branch (Miss.), Richardson did not appear in a game for Texas in 2025 before entering the portal on June 3.

LHP Ace Whitehead — USC

After serving in a two-way role for Texas out of Lampasas, Whitehead emerged as a surprisingly effective weekend starter out of necessity in 2024 before deciding to redshirt in 2025 after undergoing surgery for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.

Whitehead entered the portal on June 3 and announced his commitment to USC on June 19.
