Are we done? With several preferred walk-ons, have 23 players now. Anyone know of any last minute possible additions?

Preferred walk on's don't count in the scholarship count. Barring a monumental surprise, we should be done besides potential graduate transfers.
 
Correct, they don't count in the "scholarship" count. However, they indirectly count in that some will pan out and even start (Carr, Butler are the most recent examples). So they give us more competitive depth.

Sure, but there are 6-10 PWOs that come in every year.
 
It would be interesting to see the %'s for PWO's that receive scholarships at NU vs NCAA.

My impression is that it's not out of the ordinary, and they are usually for only a few quarters. There are perhaps 10 walk-ons who quit after their freshman or sophomore year for every walk-on that eventually receives a scholarship.
