Get ready for an electrifying, high-stakes, jaw-dropping showdown as Tramon Mark, the senior guard who’s become a game-winning sensation, prepares to face his former team, Arkansas. The stakes are higher than ever, as Mark brings his electrifying brand of basketball to the Forty Acres, aiming to leave his mark once again.
A Buzzer Beater Machine:
Mark’s signature move? Buzzer-beaters. It’s his calling card. In a recent game against Texas A&M on January 25, 2025, with the game hanging by a thread, Mark seized the moment in the final seconds. With Texas trailing, he sliced through the defense, dropping a game-winning layup that secured a dramatic 70-69 victory. “It’s all about instincts,” Mark said, recalling his perfect execution. “I saw the left side open and drove it home.” Simple. Effective. Deadly.
This isn’t a one-time thing for Mark, though. Just a year ago, during his time with Arkansas, he pulled off another breathtaking game-winning shot against the very same Texas A&M team. And now, he’s poised to do it again — only this time, it’s personal.
Defense, Power, and Glory:
What makes Mark even more dangerous this season? His reworked defense. After making the move from Arkansas to Texas, Mark’s defensive game has leveled up. Known for his impressive length, he’s now a lockdown defender with explosive potential on both sides of the ball. Texas head coach Rodney Terry has praised Mark for getting back to his hard-hitting roots, and it’s showing on the court.
From Texas High School Star to Transfer Sensation:
Before Mark was dropping buzzer-beaters in front of thousands, he was dominating as one of Texas’ most hyped high school talents. Ranked No. 6 in the state by 247Sports and No. 67 nationally by ESPN, he was a force from the moment he hit the high school scene. As a senior, Mark averaged an eye-popping 29 points per game — more than double what he put up as a freshman.
Mark’s college journey has been nothing short of a roller coaster. He began his collegiate career at the University of Houston, where he played a key role in their Final Four run in 2021. But after suffering a season-ending shoulder injury, he bounced back stronger, transferring to Arkansas, where he quickly became the Razorbacks’ go-to scorer. Averaging 16.2 points per game, he lit up the scoreboard in 2023, proving he could deliver under pressure.
Despite all the success, Mark wasn’t finished. On April 7, 2024, after completing his undergraduate degree and projecting as a potential NBA pick, he entered the transfer portal one final time. His destination? Texas.
Texas Transformation:
Now, as part of the Longhorns, Mark is averaging 9.6 points and 3.5 rebounds per game, injecting life into an offense that’s been a bit shaky this season. Over the past two weeks, with three wins out of five, Mark’s energy and skill have been the catalyst for Texas’ resurgence.
