It's been just over one full year since Mike Leach and Company's recruiting class of 2008 officially stepped foot on campus. Some didn't make it in, some didn't make it a full year.

Of the 16 high school seniors and junior college transfers, only 11 still remain (assuming Brandon Sesay doesn't pull off a miracle). So here's a rundown on what they're doing, or where they are...

K Donnie Carona - Beaumont, TX (Kelly)

Carona appeared in eveyr game for Texas Tech as the kickoff specialist as well as the kicker. Carona was only successful on 4-of-9 field goal attempts, missing four of his first five attempts, eventually giving up kicking duties to former fan Matt Williams. Carona spent the spring and summer working on his punting skills, battling with walk on Ryan Erxleben to cover the first six games in place of suspended punter Jonathan LaCour.

S Cody Davis - Stephenville, TX (Stephenville)

Davis, a two-time 4A All-State selection, redshirted during the 2008 campaign. After the departure of five safeties from the 2008 team, Davis is slotted to take over one of the starting roles in the defensive backfield alongside Jr. Franklin Mitchem.

DE McKinner Dixon - Lufkin, TX (Cisco JC)

Dixon (pictured) spent the 2005 season with the Red Raiders, receiving Freshman All-American honors from The Sporting News. However, he was far from Academic All-American. After a two-year stint at Cisco Junior College in Cisco, Texas, Dixon returned to the Red Raiders in grand fashion.

Splitting time with 2008 Big 12 Sack Leader Brandon Williams and Jake Ratliff, Dixon amassed nine sacks over the course of the year. Unfortunately, Dixon repeated his academic performance from 2005-06 and once again found himself ineligible, deciding to give up his final year in favor of a failed attempt at the NFL Supplemental Draft.

QB Seth Doege - Wolfforth, TX (Frenship)

Doege, who redshirted in 2008, has not played in a game since his sophomore season in high school in Crane, Texas. After transferring closer to Lubbock, Doege suffered a pair of torn ACLs before his junior and senior seasons. For 2009, Doege is currently losing the battle to be Taylor Potts' backup to Jr. Steven Sheffield.

ATH Cornelius Douglas - Lawton, OK (Lawton)

Douglas, another redshirt, is currently battling for a spot at the H Inside Receiver position with Adam James and Tramain Swindall.

DE Joey Fowler - Oklahoma City, OK (Westmoore)

Fowler redshirted in 2008 before being dismissed from the team for rules violations. Fowler transferred to the University of Central Oklahoma to play football.

OT Deveric Gallington - North Richland Hills, TX (Richland)

Gallington redshirted in 2008 and is currently the second-string right guard for 2009.

DE Ryan Haliburton - Wolfforth, TX (Frenship)

Redshirted in 2008, Haliburton is fighting to get playing time in 2009 behind a large group of experienced seniors at DE.

RB Harrison Jeffers - Lawton, OK (Eisenhower)

After redshirting in 2008, Jeffers has benefited from a run of bad luck for the other running backs. Originally considered to be the third back, Jeffers has now shot to the top of the depth chart thanks to the injuries suffered by Baron Batch and Aaron Crawford.
