Not being a fact policeman just checking your dates a tad. I believe 2012 for Lamb, Bradley, and Smith... as well as Oriahki (Missouri this year). Kemba in 2011. I think you are off by a year or two. But your point is made at least in part. They have had many transfers. But does that effect the APR. Depends.
The APR will only be effected if the student leaving is not in good standing with the University/college (ala Fab): that is he would be ineligible to return b/c of grades or eligibility to transfer. If their grades were insufficient to remain at UConn I doubt that the schools would 1) take them or 2) be able to take them until their grades are remediated. Altho they are transferring they will complete the semester at UConn I assume. The players still must meet the academic standards of the college to which they are transferring ... just like any other student.
The student/players that make the most impact on the APR are those that leave early for the draft and do not complete the semester (ala Flynn, Greene, Fab) making them ineligible to return b/c they blew off classes. Dion is, reportedly, completing the semester so he will be a positive for our APR. Fab, according to other threads is attempting to return to good standing via correspondence (or whatever) which, if credits are transferrable, would be a positive for our APR.
The other group that would negatively impact APR are those student/athletes who just weren't cutting it academically (ala Fab) or are having other "issues" and just cut out early and disappear and never finish the semester.
