I cannot remember if all of this is correct, but here is a summary of the 2010 attrition.

That writer is clearly not familiar with the other issue at Stanford: the admissions office, though it does at least get a mention. Of those listed, at least a couple were admissions dings, or fearing admissions dings. Some of them were cases of other places winning out - in particular the und guys if I remember correctly. And several were Stanford/Harbaugh coming up with better options. Many didn't get as far as an admissions decision - or even an application.

The most notable item is that in comparing notes from the various years back then and reports now at UM, we can discern Harbaugh's main method for dealing with the issue - simply quit talking to the guy. Somehow that feels more dishonorable than the actual dropping.
