At least 6, plus others that left before the season like Daniel Jackson, Dez Lance, Nick Matich, Zenden Dellinger, Elliot Jordan, Matt Falcon, Dontre Boyd.
Could be due to fall semester grades or a class situation. The Jacksons (#12 and #24) are no longer listed as well. They were listed on the roster all season but never saw the field. Sure would be nice to have a beat writer.

Hmmm...nope. Weird. Both guys had a chance to see the field quite a bit next year. Lots of playing time to be had in the secondary again next year it seems.
As for Ginwright at safety, I think they like Harrison Taylor in that spot. He’s the kid that had the pick to seal the NIU game. He looks like he could be fairly physical and he’s pretty young. Former walk on WR I think. Foster seemed like a good back up and had some big plays. Sad to see them go.

He's not as far as I know.
Sad to see the Jackson Bros. leave, such a waste of talent.
For Foster and Ginwright, they might be graduating in the spring and don't want to have to do grad school for backup roles. But, if that were the case, you'd think they'd go to the bowl and then they'd be removed from the roster.
Or, perhaps they had to leave now for those spots to be freed-up for early signing day?
