It's important that we continually recognize those with athletic gifts, we wouldn't want to give off the impression that this is a SCHOOL.

Nick isn't listed as a UT commitment in the Rival's database (he's listed but doesn't say he's commited anywhere). Is he planning on walking on? If so, do you still sign a LOI? Educate me, I really have no idea re: these things. Little confused here. Nick isn’t listed as a UT commitment in the Rival’s database (he’s listed but doesn’t say he’s commited anywhere).

Seriously. I just find it curious. The phenomenon strikes me almost every time I read the PCP these days, in at least one string caption. "Pictured is Madison X and Addison Y," a boy and a girl, say, and I can't tell for certain which is which. When did the gender-neutral naming thing take such vigorous hold?
