SAN MARCOS, Texas – Texas State men's basketball announced the signing of point guard Jayden Hopkins on Wednesday, as part of the November early signing period. Hopkins will join the Bobcats for the 2027-28 season.

The Midwest City, Oklahoma native spent his junior season at Terra Verde Discovery in Norman, where he averaged 10.6 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game as a junior. Hopkins transferred to Grind Prep for his senior year.

Hopkins chose Texas State over offers from Arkansas State, Cal State Bakersfield, Eastern Michigan, Jacksonville and Wyoming, making his verbal commitment to the Bobcats on September 14, 2026. The four-star guard ranks second in the state of Oklahoma and 41st nationally at his position, per ESPN.

"We're super excited about Jayden Hopkins," shared head coach Terrence Johnson. "He's an explosive, two-way player that competes on both ends of the floor. We've had a lot of success with Oklahoma players and we believe he will have a great career here. He's a gym rat, loves to compete and loves to develop and work on his game. We think with his skill set and where he's at right now, he'll translate to the Pac-12 very well."
