I know this is probably a stupid question, but here goes anyway:
When players declare for the draft, does this open up scholarships where we can make additional offers? How does a team absorb exits like this?

No, you can take 25 a year and never have more than 85 max

If you had 35 players leave over the course of 1 year you still can only bring in 25 max

nothing against you Hoguester, but there should be a year-round stickied post by Indiana Tiger or something for this stuff.

To add to the other answers:
what helps me sort out the difference between the so-called and now inappropriately named 'initial counters' (the 25 limit) and the scholarships awarded (the 85) is think of them as a down payment. You have to pay a down payment (counts against 25) when you buy a car and then make payments (yearly count against 85) there on out.

So if you sell the car, you don't have to make payments anymore (get a spot on the 85- scholarships renewed yearly). But you don't get your down payment back (that spot on 25).
