- A decade counts his passing yards at Florida Atlantic in its seasons.
- The record book's numbers are the school's own. Where they and the box scores differ for one player, the box scores are missing a game or count bowls another way.
- A quarterback still playing at Florida Atlantic is counted at tonight's numbers against the record book's, which run through the 2025 season.
