There’s portal-era roster turnover and then there’s what Mississippi State has done in the offseason under head coach Jeff Lebby.

There were a lot of downs with some moments of hopefulness for the Bulldogs last year, and now Lebby has brought 60 new players into the program since January 1.

Kentucky doesn’t face Mississippi State this season but the Bulldogs and Wildcats will be picked at a similar spot in the preseason conference rankings.
