Head coach Eli Drinkwitz reached double digit transfer signings for the 2026 season.

Offensive Tackle Josh Atkins committed to Mizzou on Thursday morning. Previously at Arizona State, the 6-foot-4, 315 pounder made 39 consecutive starts at left tackle and was named a captain of the team for the previous season. He is the No. 14 ranked OT in the portal according to 247Sports.
