The BYU football program officially announced on Thursday the arrivals of a number of players who had previously announced their intentions to join the team, as well as four returned missionaries who committed to the program prior to leaving.

Wayne Kirby (Oregon) and Austin Lee (Utah) have transferred into the program, while Ula Tolutau, Joe Tukuafu and A.J. Lolohea arrive in Provo upon return from missions after signing with other universities in high school. Keanu Saleapaga will join the team after signing as part of its 2016 recruiting class, and Earl Mariner, Teancum Fuga, Garrett England and Matt Bushman are off missions after previously signing with the program.
