Basically from Harbaugh until 2018 it was at or close to 85 (occasionally a medical retirement or unexpected departure reduced that number).  It dipped in 2018 and didn't recover in 2019 as we had a large number of early departures (you can debate whether that should have been as unexpected as it was).  We should be back to 80+ this year, again, somewhat predicated on whether there are one or more unexpected departures.

iirc, the "self-sanctions" on scholarships started in earnest with the 2017 roster (and we'd been a handful short previous years).  bowlorbust from TOS coined the phrase.  and given the use frequency of the portal door, I suspect we will still be short of 85 "recruited" scholarship players on roster this fall.
