Using the class calculator on 247 sports, all the kids that never made it to Miami, transferred out, quit, etc. were removed. Then I just went down each cycle's team rankings to see where Miami would be.

2011...8 out of 21 never made it or left...went from 33rd overall and 6th in the ACC, to 73rd overall and 10th in the ACC.

2012...15 out of 33 never made it or left...went from 10th overall and 2nd in the ACC, to 19th overall and 3rd in the ACC.

2013...8 out of 21 never made it or left...went from 14th overall and 2nd in the ACC, to 41st overall and 4th in the ACC.

2014...1 out of 27 left...2014 stayed at 12th overall and 2nd in the ACC with Kiy Hester being the only departure up to this point.

A total of 32 out of 102 commits in Golden's 4 years never made it or left.

Disgrace just as this program and adminsitration!!!!! Oh the pain of being a UM fan. Must be a curse that was put on this program for next 20 years due to the sucess in the 80's 90's

This may be an older article I post below but I think it is relevant here. When Manny Navarro posted his article earlier in the season about all the players that had left Miami I didn't think his article carried much weight for being negative on Golden's eye for talent unless it was compared to other programs. IMO a lot of those guys weren't going to make a difference. Some would have and just plain got themselves into trouble.

Here is a great article mostly talking about Alabama and how they had only 70% of the players they signed from 2009-2012 scheduled to return in 2013. It shows a list of other schools too towards the bottom of the article.

Every coach has to "thin the heard" in order to keep the roster looking good to recruits for quick playing time.

it cuts both ways. alot of those guys werent great but alot of those guys are gone because of their own actions and not staff.
 
doesn't matter how much of a case we make, Miami has made a choice to die with Al Golden...and nothing we can do about it but raise ****

Do you have any statistics to compare to other Football teams? This seems pretty normal considering injuries and other distractions that these players are exposed to.

The 2012 graduation rate for first-time, full-time undergraduate students who began their pursuit of a bachelor’s degree at a 4-year degree-granting institution in fall 2006 was 59 percent. That is, 59 percent of first-time, full-time students who began seeking a bachelor’s degree at a 4-year institution in fall 2006 completed the degree at that institution within 6 years.
