20 proven transfers in, carrying the production below from their prior school.

Impact scores offensive skill additions (QB/RB/WR/TE) — prior-season production normalized within position (100 ≈ a 90th-percentile producer at that spot) and discounted for non-FBS competition, so a top back counts alongside a top quarterback. Defensive and O-line additions count as transfers but aren't box-score measurable, so they carry no impact score. The rating figure is this class's portal contribution vs. the FBS average, capped at ±2.5.

• 3rd-down conversion 34.5% 34th — below avg
• Red-zone TD rate 21.5% 93th — elite
• 4th-down aggression 24.1% 7th — bottom tier
• Late & close 3.6 yds/play 19th — bottom tier

Percentile is across all FBS teams with play-by-play data for the season. "Late & close" is yards per play in Q4+ with a one-score margin — a proxy for clutch offensive performance.
