I'm surprised to see Jason and Ilia assigned to the same 2 events.

Just my opinion but I think they're assigned to the same 2 events so that Ilia doesn't knock out Andrew or Jacob in the point aggregate for potential GPF. Jason is the sacrificial lamb. It would seem that Jason has indicated he would skate the GPs this season or they wouldn't have put him in that position. This season is beginning to sound like a soap opera with all the switching around with partners in ice and pairs and what I think are kind of strange GP assignments. My hope is that Jason comes in like gangbusters with 2 new and totally Jason-like programs. Would like to forget last years FS and music that only made sense to him.
Remember that on paper, USFS only controls Skate America entries. The other hosts decide who they want for their events. Of course, USFS may have asked another federation to take Malinin/Brown. Or they could have told them "Malinin will pick you if you also agree to take Brown".
USFS could well have chosen Jason because he is a fan favorite and they hope he can drive ticket sales.
I'm cautiously excited. Obviously if Jason had no intention at all of doing the GPs, he would have taken his name out of the hat like Bock and KamO. There's a chance he could still pull out, but I hope not.
I saw an Instagram post Jason was tagged in back before SOI US started where someone who trains in Chicago was saying it was so cool to watch Jason and Rohene cook up new things, so I feel like we have new material in the works. Also saw somewhere that he skated to You Raise Me Up at Japan's SOI, but I haven't seen any recordings of that, just someone saying that was his music for one of his solos.
A couple years back he did a short choreo to Sevdaliza's Human that I would LOVE to see a full version of, and have been hoping that it would be an SP announcement the last few years. Maybe this year? Will we finally get Jason Brown skating to the music of Jason Robert Brown? I guess we'll find out soon enough!

Will he or won't he? That is the question for both Ilia and Jason. I actually like the two assignments. He could skate a totally Jason program and do fine. No pressure! We'll see!
