Preseason projections based on current roster data — updated as rosters change.
Important: RQI represents a calculated floor — the minimum expected roster quality based on returning experience and production. It does not account for player development, incoming recruiting classes, coaching changes, or scheme fit. Teams can and do outperform this baseline.
