Hey, all!

I know I jumped into this discussion late, but I wanted to field your 
thoughts on the possibility that instead of transferring to Hogwarts 
(as suggested in some earlier posts), Viktor Krum joins the Vratsa 
Vultures Quidditch team?

After all, Ms. Rowling tells us in Quidditch Through the Ages that 
the Vultures are "always willing to give new players a chance to make 
a name for themselves." And they are from Bulgaria, which is--I 
believe--where Viktor hails from. 

More importantly, it would allow Rowling to indulge in her admiration 
for Jane Austen with an Austen-like plot twist. Krum might take to 
writing Hermione from on the road. During the course of the ensuing 
epistolary relationship, Ron could stumble across a letter. Maybe 
he'd even discover a letter in which Krum rejoices over his team's 
victory over Ron's beloved Chudley Cannons. Can you imagine what his 
reaction would be?

It's just a theory, but I wanted to share it and get your feedback.
