Texas A&M basketball just landed a major scoring punch for the 2026-27 season. Former Kansas State standout guard PJ Haggerty announced his commitment to the Aggies via the NCAA Transfer Portal, instantly becoming one of the most significant additions in the SEC this offseason.
Haggerty arrives in College Station as a proven, elite scorer, fresh off a season where he was named the Big 12 Transfer of the Year. In his lone campaign with the Wildcats, the 6-foot-4 guard led the team with an impressive 23.4 points per game, showcasing the offensive firepower that has defined his collegiate journey.
This move marks the fifth school in five years for the talented guard, who has consistently produced at every stop. Before his year at K-State, Haggerty was the AAC Player of the Year at Memphis, averaging 21.7 points per game. His college career began with a redshirt season at TCU before breakout performances at Tulsa, where he was the AAC Freshman of the Year.
Ranked as the No. 6 overall player in On3's 2026 Transfer Portal rankings, Haggerty brings a complete offensive arsenal. He's not just a volume scorer; his averages of 5.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists at K-State demonstrate his ability to impact the game in multiple ways. With one season of eligibility remaining, he represents a high-impact, immediate solution for Texas A&M's backcourt.
The transfer represents a homecoming of sorts for the Texas native, who played his high school basketball at Crosby. After considering the NBA Draft last year, Haggerty's decision to join the Aggies signals serious ambitions for both player and program in the competitive SEC landscape.
