Longhorns baseball connected to elite ACC Catcher in the transfer Portal
Longhorns baseball connected to elite ACC Catcher in the transfer Portal The Longhorns are in the mix for Carson Tinney Over the last week, Texas Longhorns baseball has been one of the busiest teams in the transfer portal. While they have added a few elite bats, they are not done looking for talent. They are reportedly in the mix for Notre Dame catcher Carson Tinney, alongside the Florida Gators and Georgia Bulldogs. With Rylan Galvin expected to enter the MLB Draft, the Longhorns will need a new catcher. Adding a player like Tinney would ensure that Texas still has an elite option behind the plate. Along with Galvin, Tinney is a finalist for the Buster Posey Award, which is awarded annually to the best catcher in college baseball. During the 2025 campaign, Tinney was a human highlight reel with the bat. In 48 games, the talented sophomore hit 27 home runs while driving in 53 runs. He led the Fighting Irish in walks with 34 and total bases with 119. Regardless of the opponent, the Valor Christian High School product was a hits machine. While the Longhorns would love to add Tinney's bat to the lineup, he is not the only player they have been connected to. Texas Is also reportedly showing interest in Virginia's Harry Ford, the best bat in the portal. Like Tinney, he is being courted by some of the top programs in the country, including Florida. If Tinney were to join Texas, he would be part of a talented transfer class. That group includes Luke Dotson, Kaleb Freeman, Hayes Holton, and Jack Moroknek. After winning an SEC championship, the Longhorns wasted little time improving their roster with some of the top hitters available. Over the next few weeks, Tinney will be a player to watch. Texas is one of the final teams in the mix, and they hope his next stop will be in Austin before becoming an MLB Draft pick in 2026.
