Missouri Tigers defensive lineman Serigne Tounkara is planning to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal, Missouri assistant Brian Early revealed via social media.

Check out the post below. It’s evident that even though Tounkara is leaving the Tigers, he’s gained the respect of his coaches.

“Good young player, @SerigneT97 hitting the portal,” Early posted on X. “Buried a little in a talented room. Athletic, twitchy & has some natural pass rush ability. Great kid, good work ethic. Has 4 years. Hit me if you need more info.”

Tounkara played high school football at Clear Falls (TX) High School, where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 952 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
