Is Manea to NYU a real thing?
Senior Theory Moves & Offers

I believe there is an anti-Sonmez gang who will not let Sonmez have an offer from Harvard. Those working on Matching would understand what I mean. Sonmez really deserves it though. Fyi:I am not Sonmez. Neither am I a coauthor of himself nor a part of his gang. Anybody who looks at his CV can see that he is underplaced at BC. Given that market design is the only theory field with practical real life applications. I would not see why he wouldn't be at a top 5. Unver is similar. Sonmez slightly better.

non theorist here. Yariiv looks like everything that is wrong with the profession. 9 years out, no top papers, yet gets to the AER Board of editors. Ever since then gets 4 AERs while holding to the position. Seriously? are these your 'stars'?
Theorist here. I'm also puzzled by the fact that she got tenure at Caltech in 2008, with only one top five, and the rest of her publications being rather uninteresting.

Evidently they felt they had better information and, given she has an offer at Princeton, they were correct.
People don't just count top 5s...
