The first of at least three transfer additions is Fairmont State All-American Chandler Zavala.

Here is a full bio on Zavala.

• Listed at 6-foot-5, 325 pounds.

• Was an honorable mention Division II All-American in 2018, the first at Fairmont State since 1994

• Two-time all-conference and all-region selection.

• Helped Fairmont State have a 1,000-yard rusher in 2018 for the first time in 11 years.

• In 2019, offense averaged 231.8 yards rushing and allowed only 19 sacks.

• Native fo Woodbridge, Va.

• Announced his intentions to transfer after Fairmont State canceled fall season.

• Picked up offers from Virginia, Charlotte, East Carolina, Toledo and Western Kentucky.

• Committed to NC State on Dec. 2.

• Pretty good athlete for someone his size.

• Was being touted as a dark horse Division II NFL Draft prospect entering 2020.

• Projects to play on the interior offensive line for the Wolfpack, where he started at Fairmont State.

Zavala at a minimum is insurance if fifth-year senior Joe Sculthorpedecides not to return after the NCAA froze eligibility. Zavala would probably be a favorite to plug into his starting his left guard spot. If Sculthorpe does return, then Zavala could team with Sculthorpe to give NC State an older and stout guard combination.
