I'm wondering if they are shying away from F9 new hires to avoid the hassle of waiting for the potential pilot to fight a legal battle before being able to report to their training. Not to mention, if there have been single digit attrition to them overall (like 5 or so) the past year, that's 0.75 to 0.5% - which isn't very good.

A training contract won't ever stop you from showing up for class. If people do hear anything it's months down the road.
My class (2+ years ago) had 23 finish training and by my count 6 have gone on to UAL, Delta and JB. The 2 that went to blue went there so they wouldn't have to commute. We were a class or two before contracts came out.
