Can you explain why someone would be waiting (arrogantly and un-panicked) for a LL on Oct 29 while applying REA to Yale, recruited athlete or not?
Deadline is Nov 1st so technically they have time. It could come after the deadline as well. They're trusting it will come ... and neither you nor I know that it won't!

+1
Going forward, people should start by identifying (1) athlete; or (2) non-athlete.
Seems clear to me now that there are no LLs for non-athletes who apply ED. Correct?

They are looking for an RD LL when applying REA? I genuinely don’t follow why someone would do that.
