Memphis transfer PJ Haggerty committed to Kansas State on Monday, according to multiple reports.
It will be the fourth school in four seasons for the 6-foot-3 guard, who played at TCU (2022-23) and Tulsa (2023-24) before starring for the Tigers last season.
Haggerty, 21, was a second-team All-American and the American Athletic Conference Player of the Year in 2024-25 after averaging a league-high 21.7 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.8 steals in 35 starts for Memphis.
He helped Memphis win the AAC title and reach the NCAA Tournament as a No. 5 seed, where the Tigers lost in the first round to Colorado State.
Haggerty was reportedly seeking an NIL deal worth at least $4 million with his latest transfer, plus assurances that he would be his new team’s starting point guard. He removed his name from NBA draft consideration upon committing to the Wildcats.
Kansas State finished 16-17 last season, the first losing season under third-year coach Jerome Tang.
After appearing in just six games off the bench at TCU, Haggerty shined at Tulsa with 21.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 31 games (all starts) in 2023-24.
