The PhD students I advised at @UCIrvine have been stellar. @furongh @kazizzad are faculty @majidjanz @HanieSedghi @ForoughArabsha1 Yang Shi are successful #AI researchers in industry. Pick the advisor. Not the school.https://twitter.com/zacharylipton/status/1327508765525028865 …

And because I see this a second time in my Twitter feed. As much as I agree with this, in US you are admitted by a grad school, not by a specific advisor.
In most grad schools at least one faculty member should champion and agree to be advisor for the student to be admitted

This can help for sure, but there's no guarantee that after admission they will be your advisor (even if they thought they would be in good faith). Imagine there's suddenly some funding issue. So, it's still gambling one way or another.

Doing PhD is like gambling, or more precisely, it’s like you are building up your own startup, so there’s some risk you have to take:)
