re: Returning Starters for Next Year?

A&M:

WR - Davis - gone
WR - Ausbon - returning
RB - Spiller - returning
QB - Mond - returning
TE - Wydermeyer - returning (also get Cupp back)
OT - Moore - returning
G - Hocker - returning
C - Prater - gone
G - Green - returning
OT - Green - returning
sometimes stater WR Rogers - Gone
sometimes starter WR/RB Smith - returning

Call it 8 (or 9) returning on offense

DT - Madbuieke - gone
CB/Nickle - Oliver - gone
CB Renfro = gone
CB Blades - returning
CB Jones - returning
Safety Richardson - returning
Safety O'Neal - returning
LB Hines - returning
LB Johnson - returning
DE Clemons - returning
DE Johnson - returning
DE/DT Leal - retuning
DT Peevy - returning
DT Brown - returning
N Morris - returning
N Chattman - returning

I know I listed 16 people, but all of them started at some point in the year. We're returning 13/16 of them. Call it 9 of 11 starters on defense. (If all of those guys returned next year, probably only Madbuieke would be starting next year. But maybe Renfro or Oliver would have earned one of the CB or N spots, but I doubt it.)
