This makes all kinds of assumptions. We do not know that Stanford "declined" Osborne. We do not know if she applied or not. We do not know if she was admitted. We do not know how she ultimately decided on her school of choice. We know nothing about her interactions with the Stanford staff or program. I don't understand why you say things like Stanford picked Jump over Osborne or declined Osborne. It seems unfair to both Stanford and Osborne, who may simply have liked UCLA better. Maybe she likes LA. Maybe it was closer to home. Maybe she thought their style would suit her better. Maybe she did not want to play behind Williams for two years. Maybe she just really digs Cori Close and the "passion play" concept. If you know any of those things, please fill the rest of us in.
jacob on tos explained in some detail how stanford did not leave room for osborne. to repeat what has been stated by many, osborne was still talking publicly about her interest in stanford when we chose prechtel as our 4th recruit. sure, it's possible jacob was wrong; but he's usually credible.
