Texas Tech endured significant losses from the team that went to the 2019 National Championship game, but luckily Ramsey was able to step in and fill many of those voids. He started 27 games for the Red Raiders, finishing fifth in the Big-12 in scoring (15.0 PPG) and fourth in effective field-goal percentage (.531). Capable of playing all backcourt positions, Ramsey was an effective scorer both inside and out. He was second on his team with 60 three-pointers made, shooting 42.6 percent from beyond the arc on the year. Ramsey had respectable marks in other categories as well, producing 4.0 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.3 steals. Texas Tech would have made the NCAA Tournament with a NET rating of 22, and although the event was canceled, Ramsey was recognized for multiple individual accolades at the conclusion of the season. He was named the Big 12 Rookie of the Year, in addition to earning first-team All-Freshman and second-team All-Conference honors.
