Was looking tbrough the the 2025 roster on the MSU Web-site and noticed a few players are still missing or have left. Don't remember seeing anything if they retired or entered the portal.

Jaden Prekins OL
Maclain Burckley WR
Casey Kautzman K
Tyson Pottenger S
Devin Davis DB
Chase Kruse DL
Nick Krorom DL
Ryan Nansel DB

Pottenger would surprise me if he is gone. Perkins as well. I think Davis has battled injury most of his career. The rest minus Kautzman I don't know much about.

Jaden left the team after last season. Burckley transferred to Western. Kautzman transferred to Tech. Davis battled injuries and I believe he is still in Bozeman. Korom was a senior last season. Nansel retired after last season. I don't know what happened to Pottenger. Kruse was a walk on and I'm guessing there wasn't a spot for him.

Pottenger left the team as well. Has not resurfaced anywhere as of yet. I randomly walked out of the BAC next to him on the way to the bubble on MSU's Pro Day. Asked him what he thought he could do in the vertical after watching Grebe and Mellott tear it up. He said "last time I tested, I got 39.5 inches". He was definitely being serious. Good athlete. If he wants to play another year, he'll play somewhere I'd imagine.

Wish him luck. Always a hard-working kid. Just couldn’t quite crack the top of the depth chart.

I wonder if this was simply a case where he graduated and just decided to move on instead of using his fifth year of eligibility.

I thought Pottenger entered the portal before in December but the team allowed him to stay on the roster through the remainder of the season.

Looking back at old threads, Marqui Johnson and Cole Bullock were the two guys who entered the transfer portal after the regular season ended but stayed with the team. Pottenger was discussed in the 2025 two-deep thread after the season ended, so he hadn't announced he was entering the portal as of January. I don't recall whether or not he participated in Spring Ball.
