At last, the newly-minted Texas Longhorn earns his spot on the 2024-25 rankings.
Jordan Pope, a rising junior, was a large part of the Oregon State Beavers' minimal success last season and stood out amongst other Pac-12 guards.

While playing for the Beavs in 2023, Pope averaged 17.6 points, 3.4 assists, and 2.6 rebounds per game, highlighting his talents as a good all-around point guard.
Pope wasn't exactly surrounded by the necessary teammates to contend for a conference or national title last year but as a part of the Horns' squad, hopefully, that will change.
