Ok, so the listing of the transfer approvals got me thinking about the total list of transfers for all players in the Senior, Junior and Sophomore classes. I also included the 2016 class as those Red-shirt seniors will be playing this year.
Out of 200 Top 50 Ranked players for the 4 years 2016-2019, 61 players transferred, 5 turned Pro early, 3 skipped their last year (or 2) and 2 had career ending injuries. Another 5 have had injuries (2 of these also transferred-Prince/Owens) hampering their careers thus far. I also subdivided the list into Top 25 and Top 10. Interestingly enough, both the Top 25/Top 10 were about the same percentage and both higher than the Top 50. The following is the breakdown:
2017 Class had 27 players leave/transfer/significant injury;
2018 Class had 21
2019 Class had 5
