Do you really want to join a program with a 10% success rate of the freshman class making it to SR year? What are your objectives? I know I would have done everything possible to steer my kid away from that.
This is one of the better pieces of advice you'll see here. I think this applies to any school at any level.
At the D1 level a lack of Seniors may indicate that the program has been highly successful.

Cause they all got drafted as juniors. So I guess you'd be on the look out for the junior class rather than the senior class at a D1 with a strong record of getting guys drafted -- which is not every D1. And if you are offered a scholarship from a D1 that serves regularly as a pipeline into the majors/minors, you'll probably want to take your chances anyway. Might be different, though, if you are one of the recruited walk-ons at such a place.
