Okay, as I said yesterday, confusion and lots of decisions abound...
Here's the way it stands right now.
Yesterday we got the bid card of a guy who we knew was going to sign. So officially we stand at 17.
The guy from KC, he is confirmed to sign. So that's 18.
One of the guys that no one had heard from in forever called yesterday and told us he is going to sign. #19.
A kid that only the rush chairs met with, because he was so busy this summer, also gave confirmation that he will sign. His cousin is former president of Farmhouse, and another one of my firends so I hope he's as cool as his cousin was. #20.
The two guys from Omaha, our rush chairs got a little too excited about and said that they were confirmed to sign. Not true. But we think that we have a good chance with those guys.
We also have rushee #5 from that same Lincoln HS who has a card. He wants to check out the guys from some other houses first, but we think that we hold the edge for now.
That gives one more guy, a legacy, who no one knows about. He has been an ass to rush chairs all summer, not returning phone calls, cancelling meetings a half hour before they start (when the rush chairs have driven an hour and a half). The rush chairs aren't even sure if they will give him another card to sign b/c of his actions (Bid cards must be signed within two weeks of the rushee getting them, otherwise they need a new card). I'd personally like to get, because 1) he is a legacy, and since we decided to give a bid, we should try to get him, and 2) he is good friends with one of my good friends, and she has had nothing but great things to say about him.
Finally, in dissappointing news, my pledge dad's little brother decided to go Farmhouse. He felt more comfortable with the guys there apparently. One of Farmhouse's rush chairs was from his hometown, and one of his best friends went there as well. (the other joined us). His older brother really wasn't pushing him one way or the other b/c he wanted it to be his decision. I think a lot of guys in our house are pretty upset about losing him b/c he was a cool guy.
So we're down to 4 left. Our max pledge class will be 24 with 4-5 living out. Keep your fingers crossed that we land them all.
