Fresh water dive, found these attached to a couple of rocks at around 10 feet deep. I think they are some sort of eggs. Thoughts?

Probably amphibian, maybe fish.
 
It might be a clump of phylactolaemate bryozoans. The pics are a bit blurry but those little "egg" things might be the individual zooids of a bryozoan colony. They tend to form large globular clusters in the summer months in many lakes and ponds. Sometimes they can get as big as basketballs. Large, gelatinous, creepy basketballs.
