Bottom line is no one knows yet, so it's not accurate to make a definitive statement like it "will be" DOH.
fair enough. but knowing what we know, given the currentinformation at hand, it wouldn't make any sense to leave an earlier hire date at US for a later class date at AA. Many people who played this game in the 90s got burned. badly.
