Auburn stats from years 2008-2011 combined, along with comments that accompany stats:

Withdrew from recruitment: 9.74% (most over not receiving a desired invitation)
Released during week (in process): 3.13%
Released Bid Day: 2.2% (all neglected to maximize pref options)
Placed in chapters: 84.94%

I tried to find some numbers for a variety of other schools reputed to have very competitive recruitments (UGA, USC, and SMU), but was not able to find comparable numbers.
Okay, but while the numbers of totally released women are small, they are still much higher at Auburn and Bama than at Illinois. 3% of 1000+ women is 30+ women, which is 15 times higher. Of course, I wouldn't draw any conclusions based on one year of statistics, though.
