The '78 team probably had the best talent of any Mizzou team, judging from who ended up in the NFL, anyway. Even though it was a Powers team the players were Onofrio's recruits.

Brad Edelman
Gerry Ellis
Earl Gant
Leo Lewis
David Newman (actually CFL)
Johnnie Poe
Eric Wright
Bill Whitaker
Jerome Sally
James Wilder
