Is this list new?

I ask because Paul Oliver from Georgia is on this list. He was declared academically inelgibile for his senior season and was subsequently picked up by the Chargers in the NFL's supplemental draft.

You'd think the Thorpe Foundation would kinda' look into this sort of stuff before publishing the list.
