Yesterday, Doug and Bill assessed whether each room was better or worse due to the portal. With the portal winding down, and in light of the initial panic, now is a good opportunity to take a clearer look and see if we took all that much damage, or if, dare I say it, we actually look even better for 2026 specifically. 

The tables below summarize the changes to help inform your opinions. I also included the 2026 recruiting additions to complete the picture for 2026. But if you are only looking at the portal, the new recruits can be discounted. 

Positionally, I went with the expected roles and how they were listed. But I'm no authority; adjust as you see fit.

Bold denotes 2025 starters and others with significant playing time. 
Red highlights are exits due to eligibility or early draft entrants.
Yellow highlights are transfer portal additions/losses.

So how does each unit look in 2026? Was the portal was an overall positive or negative?
