At the risk of being flogged, I must admit to having my perceptions colored by the 247 predictions  ;)

It seemed to me St. Brown was a legit possibility, but seeing nobody on 247 picking Stanford out of 20 predictions makes me skeptical.  The fact mom likes Stanford is likely not reflected in the predictions for St. Brown.  The first nine Irwin predictions were Stanford.  Now the last 10 are all ASU.  I didn't check this , but it very well could be the Irwin "shift" is all after Brady White committed to ASU, which to me is silly, but when these guys are making predictions on so many recruits, they aren't going to study every case very hard, and groupthink will likely materialize.  My gut tells me it's like PLF suggests, that Irwin will sign with Stanford if admitted.  I've never considered Kirk a legit potential Stanford get.

Frequent readers of my posts might think this is a broken record, but I don't understand why the recruiting reporters out there never report on who is taking two AP classes their Senior year and planning on filling out a Stanford application.  If they included such data points, things would be a lot more clear on the Stanford recruiting assessment front.
