There is a shake-up coming to the Texas A&M men’s basketball program as another player has made a decision about their future. On3 has learned that power forward Tyler Ringgold is opting to find a home for next season, having entered his name into the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Ringgold played his high school ball at Southern University Lab School in Baton Rouge, LA. Southern University Lab School is a program dedicated to helping high school athletes prepare for the next level and, quite possibly, for the professional level of their sport.

Coming out of high school, Ringgold was a three-star prospect with an 85.7 rating. He ranked 236 nationally, 47 among power forwards, and was the second-best player in men’s basketball to come out of the state of Louisiana in the 2023 recruiting cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Ringgold failed to record any stats in his freshman year at Texas A&M.

Nebraska transfer CJ Wilcher has committed to Texas A&M, he announced Monday morning on Instagram.

Wilcher averaged 7.7 points and 1.5 rebounds per game last season, including scoring two points against the Aggies in last year’s NCAA Tournament game.

The New Jersey native was ranked as a four-star recruit and the No. 108 overall player in the country in the class of 2020, according to the On3 Industry rankings.

CJ Wilcher signed with Xavier out of high school. As a freshman that season, he played in 15 games and averaged 3.3 points and 1.1 rebounds per game. Wilcher then entered the transfer portal and eventually landed at Nebraska. He was a key piece off the bench in 2021-22, averaging 8.1 points and 2.3 rebounds per game as the sixth man for the Cornhuskers.

As a sophomore in 2022-23, CJ Wilcher moved into an even larger role, playing in 32 games and making 24 starts. He then helped Nebraska to the NCAA Tournament this past season, before entering the transfer portal for the second time.
