Well, you know, all schools see an exodus of players after the season -- typically because they don't see a place for themselves in the coming years. Sometimes they're named Brett Nottingham and Kevin Reihner, to pick two totally random examples. The question is how hard the coaches push in running players off. Saban's quite aggressive (and does stuff like grant obviously wrong medical exemptions).* Without more reporting it's hard to tell what end of the spectrum Helfrich is at.
