They could be saying that only 22 guys who got offers were admitted, and we landed all 22. They could also be saying that while more than 22 guys who got offers were admitted, we got the 22 who were seriously considering us. Thoughts?
Let's not overthink this. While it is a nice sentiment that the numerator matches the denominator here, really, the only thing that matters is the numerator. The class would be identically good if we had landed the same 22 out of an offered and admitted 40. Stanford football has always been about the guys we got, not the guys we missed out on.
