it sums to less work, though.

Overall, they will be recruiting as many as they always do but evaluating transfers will take much less time. Evaluating HS players takes a lot more time because you have to search through all the tape.
Lets make up some numbers like lets pretend they will evaluate 200 players every recruiting season. Lets say you average 4 hours evaluating every HS recruit and 1 hr evaluating every transfer. Now lets pretend they want half of each class to be transfers. Now they are evaluating 100 transfers and 100 HS kids. They have now reduced the recruiting effort from 800 hours to 500 hours to get the same quality of evaluation.
Now...would this mean they spend less time recruiting? Probably not. I would guess they use the extra time to evaluate even more players or make even better/more thorough evaluation of the HS kids they really need/want.
