Ring bling
The ring’s the thing.
Slowly but surely, UH basketball is distributing its 2015-16 Big West championship and NCAA Tournament second-round rings to staff, trainers, and players current and former.
They’re pretty sharp. Fittingly so for a program that celebrated its first conference title since 2002 and first Tournament win ever.
Here’s a couple more shots of athletic trainer Jay Goo’s ring.

If you missed what Eran Ganot had to say about Dave Shoji in the print edition a couple days ago, here it is:
“The bottom line is, first and foremost, all of our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family. He’s done so much for so many for so long. He’s a mentor to all of us. He’s a coaches’ coach. He’s Hawaii. He’s bigger than the game, bigger than the volleyball program, athletic department, university, state. He’s bigger than the state.
“I’ve been blessed to be around him. Right now I know for sure he will attack this with the same grit and resolve, faith, that we all admire him for and look up to him for. And I’m sure he knows this, he should gain confidence as he goes through this because he’s gonna have an army of support around him. And like I said, not just from the people here in Hawaii. We’re all there for him and his family. … We’re going to support him through this as he’s been for so many of us.”
Those rings are ugly!!!
Must be the budget again. Can you imagine what the ring would look like WHEN our football team wins the conference. They will have to buy around 160 rings for players, coaches, and staff. Maybe they will be pinky rings.
Has Laura Beeman and the UH WBB team released any wishes towards Dave and his recovery? I haven’t heard of any.

Give me a break. Jeez

2. The school is only allowed to spend a certain amount per player on championship awards for teams/players. The limits don’t change; they are the same for all sports.
