Those individuals are offensive lineman Colin McGovern (New Lenox, Ill.) and quarterback Marvin Zanders (Jacksonville, Fla.).

Graduate offensive line transfers John Montelus (Everett, Mass.) and Brandon Pertile (Clearwater, Fla.) will begin classes at UVA next week and will be eligible to compete this fall.
