Now we don’t want to toot our own horns, but maybe we aren’t so horrible at predicting signings!

We admit we were waaaay off with Hayley P. signing with TYR. (Still trying to get our heads around that one). But we were right about Jessica Hardy and Whitney Myers! I had a feeling that Jess would go Speedo and she, in fact, did. I also really wanted NIKE to step up and sign another female athlete. And I wanted that new Team Nike member to be Whitney. Welp looks like it is!

That should be pretty interesting, though. Because Whitney is the only Octagon-repped swimmer who isn’t signed to Speedo. I wonder if that poses any problems with the whole Swim With The Stars program. Guess we’ll have to wait and see!

We are awaiting more signing news. I’m pretty sure at least one of the graduating seniors is holding out on me, and I will deal with him accordingly; like I did PVK last year.

NOTE TO SWIMMERS PROMOTED ON SWIMSTARS.ORG: Don’t keep major career news, like signing a swimwear/sponsor contract, from Suz. She doesn’t like it. You’re making her job (which is helping YOU out) harder. Fill a sista in, mmk?
