TCU Basketball is Losing a Talented Sophomore to Transfer Portal

NCAA Basketball: Northwestern State at Texas Christian

The TCU Horned Frogs are set to lose a rotational piece, as sophomore forward Jace Posey plans to enter the transfer portal.

Posey, the son of two-time NBA champion James Posey, showed flashes during his sophomore campaign while carving out a role in TCU’s rotation. He averaged 4.6 points and 2.3 rebounds per game this season, providing depth and energy off the bench.

While his overall numbers were modest, Posey had moments that hinted at his potential, most notably a 21-point performance in a win over the Florida Gators back in November. That outing showcased his scoring ability and upside when given extended opportunities.

His departure adds to what is slowly becoming a busy offseason across the Big 12, as programs continue to navigate roster changes in the transfer portal era. For TCU, losing Posey means subtracting a young player with developmental upside, even if he wasn’t a full-time starter.

At the same time, a move like this isn’t uncommon. Players in rotational roles often look for opportunities where they can take on a larger role, and Posey’s pedigree and flashes of production should make him an intriguing option for programs seeking wing depth and scoring potential.

For TCU, the focus now shifts to replacing that depth and continuing to shape the roster heading into next season. For Posey, it’s a chance to find the right fit and expand his role at the next stop in his college career.
