Texas Forward Kadin Shedrick Returning to Longhorns in 2024-25
Rodney Terry and the Texas Longhorns received some good news on Saturday morning, with senior forward Kadin Shedrick announcing his return to the Longhorns for the 2024-25 season.
Shedrick committed to the Longhorns in the transfer portal last season after spending the previous three seasons under Tony Bennett at Virginia.
Shedrick was a major addition in the 2023 offseason and provided some reliable depth behind First-Team All-Big 12 forward Dylan Disu. With Disu graduating, Shedrick now has a path to starting in 2024-25. In the three seasons prior to transferring to Texas, Shedrick averaged 5.2 points and 3.7 rebounds per game on 60.4% shooting from the field.
The North Carolina native averaged 7.7 points per game and 3.0 rebounds per game during the 2023-24 season. His best game of the season came in the Big East-Big 12 Battle against Louisville on November 19th, where he recorded 27 points, seven rebounds, three steals, one block, and one assist.
Shedrick will be a major piece in the Longhorns’ move to the SEC, and if the team can build around their impressive forward, Texas could quickly become a team to watch in the SEC.
