All the portal madness has just about passed.
Missouri football is still more than 100 days away from starting its 2025 campaign. Spring practices have wrapped up across the country. Offseason practices are the only thing standing between the present and players reporting for fall camp.
The transfer portal is, in an overwhelming majority of cases, closed for new entrants, too. That means nearly all of the movement fans should expect has already occurred, and rosters, in most cases, are close to what they will look like in the fall.
