10 most impactful 2025 college football transfer portal moves

10. Damon Wilson II to Missouri

Missouri suffered a significant loss when five-star freshman Williams Nwaneri entered the transfer portal in December. Nwaneri was also one of the top defenders on the move this offseason and should have a big impact for Matt Rhule at Nebraska. However, Eli Drinkwitz replaced Nwaneri on the defensive line with arguably the top defender available during this portal cycle: Wilson II. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound edge rusher was also a highly-touted five-star prospect in the Class of 2023 and looked the part in two seasons at Georgia, particularly in 2024 as he racked up 22 total tackles, three sacks and two forced fumbles. With sack leader Johnny Walker Jr. off to the NFL, Wilson II should shine for a Mizzou defense that has added multiple playmakers this offseason.
