You have to take a lot of things into consideration when looking at offer lists so it really isn't as cut and dry as a lot of people think. Some kids commit early which will lead to fewer offers. Some kids drag their recruitment out until the last second which can, in theory, bring more potential suitors into the mix. A good example of how offers can no longer be commitable is Daniel Gresham. Almost all of his offers were prior to his senior season and his commitment to Texas. Now when Strong got the job and he no longer had an offer he was left a little high and dry. Schools like Alabama, Auburn, LSU, etc. had already moved on. There was a reason why he was taking visits to SMU and UTSA in the final two weeks before signing day.
That said, the majority of these kids have verified and commitable offers from P5 programs.

These are obviously all JJ recruits and/or early offers.

Wow.
And I'm not questioning you, SMT, but that list seems unbelievable. Maybe many were not really committable (Proche and TCU? Herndon and Oklahoma?), however, I think the "early playing time" is a huge selling point along with all the other stuff of course . . . Dallas, HCCM and staff, new facilities, etc etc).
