Also, the # of grad transfers opens up room for a pretty sizable recruiting class.

It was expected, though I don't know if UVa was known as the destination.

The # of grad transfers probably has no effect on recruiting classes. The fall 2015 class is set and we will be well under the scholarship limit for the fall. The next class comes in in the fall of 2016 when all the grad transfers would be gone anyway.

Good point. Maybe its just my imagination but it does seem like the # of grad transfers has been rising recently. If this is a one-time adjustment due to overall improvement in recruiting quality, then coaches shouldn't make any adjustment to recruiting strategy. However, if it's a longer-term trend you'd think they would start recruiting bigger classes to account for attrition.
