He played college basketball for the Texas Tech Red Raiders and South Dakota having transferred after his freshman year at Air Force.




Early life


Mooney has a younger brother Joe who is also a basketball player. He attended Notre Dame College Prep and commuted two hours from Wauconda, Illinois to play under coach Tom Les. Mooney was lightly recruited. He had two college offers coming out of high school and signed with Air Force.




College career


Mooney averaged 6.9 points per game as a freshman at Air Force. However, he had trouble getting adjusted to the strictness of the military culture and experienced bullying. After the season, he opted to transfer.
After sitting out a season, Mooney averaged 18.6 points per game as a sophomore for South Dakota, leading the team to a regular season championship. He was named to the First–team All-Summit League and newcomer of the year. As a junior, Mooney averaged 18.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.1 assists. He was named to the First–team All-Summit League again. He had 31 points in a loss to TCU and 30 points in a loss to South Dakota State in the Summit League championship. Following the season, Mooney opted to transfer as a graduate student, selecting Texas Tech over offers from Northwestern and Creighton.
Texas Tech was coming off a season in which the team reached the Elite Eight but lost some important pieces. Mooney averaged 11 points per game and shot 38 percent from behind the arc. He partnered with Jarrett Culver to help the team reach its first-ever Final Four. Mooney scored 17 points in an upset of Gonzaga in the Elite Eight. In Texas Tech's first Final Four appearance on April 6, 2019, Mooney scored 22 points in Texas Tech's 61–51 defeat of Michigan State to advance to the 2019 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship game.
