Stewart Mandel, The Athletic’s Editor in Chief of College Football, has released something he’s calling the post-transfer portal early Top 25 for the 2022 college football season.

As of posting, Stewart is still defending that hill on Twitter. Kersey is right, of course, none of this matters when the season starts!
