I've contacted a prof who has agreed to be my supervisor so that I can apply to the program and he also suggested that I approach a new prof to co-supervise. The new prof said she is confused because the prof asked her to be a committee member only. She also said she is looking for students as well but won't fight with the prof, that the program is competitive, and that she is on the admissions committee and that "we will see what happens". I thought it might be annoying to report everything back to the first prof and so I just said the new prof can be a committee member and asked whether I need to contact other faculty to show interest in the program. The first prof said it's good news and didn't say I have to contact other profs. Am I just overthinking about what the new prof said?
