    I think the list is all people who are returning for 2010.

    Also, not sure if they would pick up on a walkon since he may have had no stars coming in. I would guess he just looks at who is on the signing day lists and not walk ons.

    Dang, I missed that.

    I do think it is only returning players on the list though.

    They do recruit them but usually as soon as they commit to Tejas, they jump up a star.

    You are correct. I didn't bother to read most of the drivel...
