Seems to me it would favorably taint the numbers if they aren't included.
It depends. If I were an AD or a coach recruiting, I'd keep two sets of numbers -- one showing the early exits to the NFL, one showing what the NCAA said our grad rate was.

For places like Oklahoma, Miami or USC, the difference in the #'s would be significant.
