The Missouri Tigers didn't enter the spring window of the transfer portal with a shopping list of positions to check off.

During spring practices, Drinkwitz felt confident enough in his current roster to say it's the most talented team he's ever coached with Missouri.

But even after bringing an impressive haul of players in the winter, Missouri still had some roster spots and cash open to improve its roster during April. The Tigers have added four players so far this spring, each which fit the team's priorities of adding competition, depth and leadership.

Watch the video below as Mizzou football reporter Joey Van Zummeren breaks down how Missouri's four spring additions highlight the goals the Tigers set out to accomplish in this transfer portal window.
