Fun read. Often times top employers play a zero sum game to lockup talent from a handful of schools. Sport teams will do the same predatory behavior by keeping a lot of talent on the bench instead of having to play against them.

This worked well for awhile with Google's revenue outstripping Microsoft and many other competitors by paying top dollar and providing lots of great employee benefits.
