Tramon Mark joins Texas basketball after leading Arkansas in scoring last season

Texas capped a massive portal haul Sunday evening by signing former Arkansas wing Tramon Mark, a four-year junior who averaged 16.2 points and 4.3 rebounds this past season for the Razorbacks.

Mark’s commitment to Texas comes after John Calipari took over the Arkansas program, and it came just a couple of hours after Texas announced the signing of former Indiana State wing Jayson Kent.

Mark, who spent three seasons at Houston before transferring to Arkansas, will return to his home state. He grew up in Dickinson, which is just south of Houston and near Angleton, the hometown of Texas coach Rodney Terry.

Rated the 35th best player available in the portal, Mark gives Texas another athletic wing who can play multiple positions and shoot the ball from the outside. This past season he made 36.4% of his 99 3-point attempts while shooting 48% from the floor. He also averaged 5.3 shots a game from the foul line, making 80.4%.

How does Tramon Mark fit in with Texas?

Like Kent, Mark looks like he can step in as an immediate starter. He gives Texas more length, athleticism and defensive versatility.

Texas has some available minutes at the wing since Brock Cunningham graduated and Devon Pryor is a developing sophomore who only saw 25 minutes of action this past season. Terry often used a three-guard lineup featuring a rotation of Max Abmas, Tyrese Hunter, Chendall Weaver and Ithiel Horton. The presence of Mark and Kent will give Texas two true wings.

More portal news to come for Rodney Terry?

Texas has only lost little-used guards Chris Johnson and Gavin Perryman as well as backup forward Alex Anamekwe to the portal, but the team did miss out on incoming freshman Cam Scott, a 4-star guard who received his release from his letter of intent to play at Texas last week.

Terry and his staff hosted Kent and former Indiana State teammate Julian Larry this weekend, and they are hosting former Oregon State guard Jordan Pope this upcoming weekend.
