A major piece of the TCU men’s basketball roster will be back in the fold for the 2026-27 season. Junior forward Xavier Edmonds, an All-Big 12 Third Team selection, announced on social media that he’ll run it back with the Horned Frogs next winter. Edmonds, one of the top JUCO players in the nation before signing with TCU, posted 12.7 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game on 57% shooting and 43.6% shooting from 3-point range. Edmonds is the second TCU player this offseason (Brock Harding) to announce his return for next season.
Edmonds started 34 games for the Horned Frogs, helping the team to a 23-12 record and the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The 6-foot-8, 245-pounder from Long Beach, California is a junior with one year of eligibility remaining, which he’ll spend with TCU. Edmonds recorded 16 points and eight rebounds during the team’s first-round win over Ohio State. He scored a season-high 26 points in a, 84-82 victory over Kansas State on Feb. 7.
