Strength in number(s)?

Did anyone notice that all three RBs (Jessie Henderson, DeMyron Martin, Andrew McKinney) SMU recruited wore #2 on their high school jerseys?
Not sure if there's any significant conclusions that can be drawn from this little nugget of information, but I found it interesting.

So does this mean the Webguys can go find every HS running back wearing #2 this year and pencil them in for next year's Recruiting Roundup?
Kind of interesting coincidence.

Somehow I imagine it was the number of yards and touchdowns and 40 times that appealed to the coaches, not the number on the RBs' jerseys. But it is unusual, to say the least. Think this has ever happened before -- every recruit at a given position wearing the same jersey number in HS? I wonder if it's ever happened ANYWHERE, let alone at SMU.
