That's a totally bogus/misleading number. I can think of 5 of 6 guys who after one year playing under Romar just simply aren't man enough to be a Dawg and then transfer.

Elston Turner is just one example from last years roster! About one a year leave and this counts against the grad rate above.

That and one and dones like Hawes actualy count against that number for three years which makes it a totally bogus number.
