I had read that, Bob.  We are speculating why Stanford went ahead with its announcement of 3 rather than waiting until after Haley made her announcement. 

I'm hoping (and think it plausible) that Stanford just decided to announce who it had on the first day of signing week and that Haley is still an option for us, and so our announcement of 3 has no positive or negative implications. I agree with BosCard.

Beliibi's announcement, by the way, is spectacular :)

Think about this announcement from the perspective of the three early commits. They would justifiably be put off if their announcements were somehow delayed just because someone else had decided to wait a few more days. So announcing the three now is the right thing to do.
