IMO most of these players would probably have left anyway. Haase being let go makes it easier to justify, but in reality all these players had to know that next year would at best be like this year. Going elsewhere makes all the sense in the world if you intend to make a career in basketball. Obviously none of these players were at Stanford to get an education. If they were, Haase or no Haase, they could have remained and got said education. They are leaving, which should disabuse anybody who still believed the quaint notion notion these players are "student athletes".
