CU Japan Dream Bowl Players Named

I'm still trying to find the complete roster, but there are the Lion players who will participate in the game against the Japanese all stars in Tokyo on Jan. 22nd: 

(according to the CU Athletics website)

• Alex Felkins, Sr., PK (Tulsa, Okla.)
• Mike Fluegel, Sr., DB (Clarkston, Mich.)
• Ryan Hamilton, Sr. LB (Dublin, Ohio)
• Will Hamilton, Sr., OL (Suwanee, Ga.)
• Jackson Heath, Sr., TE (Overland Park, Kan.)
• Matt Klenk, Sr., OL (Pittsford, N.Y.)
• Parker Lefton, Sr., LS (Duluth, Ga.)
• Fara'ad McCombs, Sr., DB (Passaic, N.J.)
• Zach Minch, Sr., OL (Manchester, N.H.)
• Stew Newblatt, Sr., OL (Clarkston, Mich.)
• Ernest Robertson, Sr., WR (Bronx, N.Y.)
• Thomas Thibault, Sr., DL (Quebec City, Quebec, Canada)
• Xavier Thibault '22CC, DL (Quebec City, Quebec, Canada)
• Scott Valentas, Sr., LB (Wichita, Kan.)
• Ryan Young, Sr., RB (Wheaton, Ill.)

The big question now is: is every player a definite graduate who will not be coming back to play for the Lions next season? I ask that because I think Will Hamilton had some eligibility left, and he would be an essential anchor for a O-line that looks like it will be dominated by newcomers next year. 

I also wonder if Mike Fluegel is definitely not returning in the fall.

Some of the schools have put on twitter their roster selections—Harvard lists 8, Princeton 7 for example.

Only 1 QB on roster?? Only 2 players from Yale? I wonder what went into these decisions

You do know Mike Fluegal is already a 5th year senior? How would he return?

What about our new Pres. I hope she is supportive of athletics.
