I believe it's *possible* JKR is leading us to believe James was in 
Gryffindor, when he may not have been.  If he was in fact in 
Gryffindor, wouldn't she just come out and say it?  Why does all the 
evidence skirt around the subject?

Taryn:
She may just be assuming that WE will assume James was in Gryffindor. After all, both Lily and Hagrid were in Gryffindor (naturally). I think there ARE some things that can be taken at face value, with the simple and most likely explanation, and that this is one of those things. But I DO understand the debate--JKR's a master of misleading. But I, for my part, don't believe this one's a red herring.
