If he's not F1, he'll be in the F4. MF wouldn't pass up on this guy making it far and potentially being the next lead.

That's pretty much how I feel also. There are always at least 1 or 2 who make the F4 even though the lead already knows they aren't picking them (after all, nobody is really torn between 4 different people by that point), so the only way Emily would have been allowed to get rid of Ryan (who I'm sure the producers were eyeing when they cast him as a top contender to become the next lead if Emily didn't want him) is if she and he had some sort of falling out, IMO. After all, looking back, the only times in recent memory that the person who got the first 1 on 1 didn't make F4 were Jake, as Jill just didn't connect with him at all (can you blame her?), even though speculation was that the producers expected him to be in her top 4, and William (he shot himself in the foot with Ashley, or else he probably would have been).

I also suspect that Ryan was given a second 1 on 1 for the same reason, since the producers would want to highlight their anticipated next "Bachelor" as much as possible to keep them popular with the fans (but I'll feel better once we actually have some proof that it happened!). That said, I'm still hoping that he's the one that Emily has fallen for, but I've got a sinking suspicion she's fallen under the spell of another racecar driver instead. Oh well.

i know...was hoping he would post early and be done! But looks like he's going to wait and draw more hits and people keep checking the site. I've got meetings all afternoon, so I wont be able to check in until later tonight. :pout

I thought everyone could enjoy then.

Well, if anyone wants to use it:

Has anyone claimed this as an avi yet? If not, I'd like to use it. I lived in Augusta most of my life and consider Ryan my hometown boy.

Yup, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. :giggle:

Ryan was not listed as one of RS Final 4 guys. Jef Holm is among them though.....Not sure what to think!!!!!!

According to RS, Ryan did not make the F4!

Feel free to use it! I have been considering it...but haven't done it. So go for it! I was going to say my story is he's from Georgia! Gotta love those GA boys! (since I've lived in GA --south GA all my life...well except for the 4 yrs of college in ATL)
