The amazing thing about this chart is to see how few players we have in their 4th year of eligiblity.  Toohill, Beecher, Scarlett and McNitzky. That is absolutely crazy. Is that unprecedented? Parkinson, Little, Costello are all prospects to go pro early and a bunch of 4th year juniors may not return for a 5th year, but you can kind of see why Shaw has some unallocated scholarships going into the next recruiting class.

Donkey687, Toohill, Beecher and Scarlett will be 5th year seniors next year. Here are the number of 5th year seniors on the roster in recent history as a point of comparison.
2019 - 3
2018 - 10
2017 - 6
2016 - unknown (roster on GoStanford excludes class information)
2015 - 10
2014 - 13
2013 - 9
2012 - 4

In general, I think that the team benefits from the experience and leadership of 5th year seniors. We'll see going forward if the big dip in 2019 is an anomaly or a trend.
