Is it possible that the number of girls who withdraw (proportionately) could affect the release numbers over the week? Thoughts?
Illinois (2010): approx 26% of PNMs withdrew during process
Alabama (2010): approx 10% withdrew during process
Auburn (average years 2008-11): 9.74% withdrew during process

Its hard to say because the Alabama numbers have the Alpha Phi and DG expansions to take into account which might also increase withdrawals.
I can say the Auburn number is a little off year to year because they were showing that most of the women who withdraw after first round were withdrawing before day 1 was over in 2011 or before they saw their invitations for round two. That might be attributed to the horrible heat wave last year.
