There have been 85 grad transfer QBs since 2007. The Athletic did a study and only 5 of those 85 started a majority of the season, led their team to a bowl game, and ranked top 25 in passing efficiency:

Russell Wilson-Wisconsin
Vernon Adams-Oregon
Nathan Peterman-Pittsburgh
Jeff Driskel-Louisiana Tech
Ben Mauk-Cincinnati

On average, P5 to G5 transfers start 8.5 games, throw for 1,963 yards with 13 TDs and 7 INTs.
On average, G5 to P5 transfers start 7 games, throw for 1,470 yards with 10 TDs and 6 INTs.

22% of grad transfer QBs never make a start at their new school.

Driskel and Sokol are 2 of 22 QBs to make 13+ starts at their new school.

Tech has certainly had some pretty good fortune when it comes to grad transfer QBs.
