Here are the upper classmen for 2013 (assuming no additional attrition)
QB
McCoy, Case SR
Ash, David JR
RB/FB
Brown, Malcolm JR
Bergeron, Joe JR
Moss, Chet JR
WR
Davis, Mike SR
Shipley, Jaxson JR
Harris, John JR
Onyegbule, Miles JR
Jackson, Bryant JR
TE
Daniels, Greg JR
OL
Walters, Mason SR
Hawkins, Donald SR
Hopkins, Trey SR
Ashcraft, Thomas SR
Kelley, Paden SR
Porter, Garrett SR
Kriegel, Kyle SR
Espinosa, Dominic JR
Cochran, Josh JR
DT
Dorsey, Ashton SR
Moore, Brandon SR
Whaley, Chris SR
Jackson, Desmond JR
DE
Jeffcoat, Jackson SR
Wilson, Reggie SR
Reed, Cedric JR
LB
Hicks, Jordan SR
Cobbs, Demarco SR
Edmond, Steve JR
Benson, Aaron JR
Jackson, Tevin JR
Thompson, Kendall JR
DB
Byndom, Carrington SR
Phillips, Adrian SR
Diggs, Quandre JR
Evans, Sheroid JR
Turner, Josh JR
Thompson, Mykkele JR
Scott, Leroy JR
P/K
Russ, William JR
That's 18 Seniors & 23 Juniors. With current commitments, Texas already projects to have 85 on scholarship. So any attrition that occurs between now and January would likely be filled by someone for the 2013 class. That said, 41 upper classmen is a large number so I would expect a class of between 20 & 25 in 2014.
Those who can, do; those who can't, coach; those who never could, complain about the first two.

I don't believe that is correct: For example Case McCoy, Mike Davis, Mason Walters and Trey Hopkins were 2000 recruits so they are only Juniors.
Ashcraft, Thomas, Kelley, Paden, Porter, Garrett, and Kriegel, Kyle redshirted one year and I believe have two years remaining.
Donald Hawkins is a JC transfer and I believe he has two years of eligibility remaining.
On the other hand DJ Monroe, Jeremy Hills and Ryan Roberson will be seniors next year as will several of the receivers and tight ends and Luke Poehlmann
I only checked through the offense.

I think the OP was probably referring to the 2014 recruiting class.

I believe you are correct. That is along way off to try to figure out. My guess is a number from the 2012 and 2013 classes will leave as well before February 2014.

I would say about 20 ships every year. Now that players are being held accountable there will be plenty of attrition.

My guess would be around 23-25.
