Stanford roster size

You can use the following link to see rosters back through 2001. I counted 34 in 2006 and 37 in 2007.

Infield08 - From my many years as a fan, around 35 players is the normal number. Last year it bounced up. Not sure I know why...so better for me not to try and guess.

5 seniors last year, at least 5 juniors signed. And a few more had planned to stop playing after last year all along. 8-9 incoming recruits. I don't know what the "net" is returning?

However, I also know that all current players were well aware of the upcoming changes and where they stood...from the very beginning of last school year. I believe its a 1-year anomaly and not an indicator of future trends.

Just my guess, nothing more. I'm only responding to provide what very little insight might be useful.

Bordeaux's son, a rhp, just graduated from Stanford. You might PM her and see what her thoughts are.

Thanks for the responses. I had just mild curiosity and appreciate learning that last year was an anomaly for Stanford. It's good to know that current players were made aware of their future with the program way early in the game so there were no last-minute surprises (unlike at least 2 major D1 programs here in Texas that I've heard about).
