How exactly does the APR work for guys that leave early?

They're exempted.
That said, I doubt LSU had more players than, say, Alabama during that stretch leave early.

I think it depends on their academic progress at the time they leave school. Not sure, though.
Looks like leaving early does hurt, but not much, assuming they are academically eligible when they leave...
LINK
Each student-athlete receiving athletically related financial aid earns one point for staying in school and one point for being academically eligible.
A team’s total points are divided by points possible and then multiplied by 1,000 to equal the team’s Academic Progress Rate.

In 2013 alone, eight underclassmen left for the draft (seven, if you exclude Tyrann Mathieu, who was dismissed from the team). Another five underclassmen followed suit and left after last season, totaling either 12 or 13 in two years. By comparison, Alabama has had half of that — seven players — leave early for the draft in the past two seasons.

How is that possible, assuming some scholarship basketball players at UK left prior to graduation?

Not according to the NCAA link I posted. I must be missing something.

What? The link I posted explicitly states that the program loses points for athletes who leave early, even if they are academically eligible. Look at the graph. Is the link dated?

The NCAA does adjust APR, on a student-by-student basis, in two circumstances. One exception that can be made, is for student-athletes who leave prior to graduation, while in good academic standing, to pursue a professional career. Another is for student-athletes who transfer to another school while meeting minimum academic requirements and student-athletes who return to graduate at a later date

Got it. Thanks!

In other words, not what Simmons and Quarterman just did to LSU.
