Biggs tweeted today that he’s not available until second semester (grades)…

Armstead, Valdes and Biggs’ situations are consistent with Gib’s general comment (RE: Academics) …”…that we’re so far away from getting there…”

i would think multiple scenarios confirms that we still have at least one, maybe two shots with the remaining scholies … original target was by End of August; based on above could see one extend to mid-term (January — Conjecture ONLY)…

i guess i don’t understand — don’t know anyone who actually thinks High School is Hard … but getting what you need to Qualify for UH is harder than some or many … IS NCAA Actually pushing towards “Exclusionary”?
(Other Students Can Get in ?)

Maybe a Good Attorney should Challenge …NOT on behalf of “our” school…

Biggs went to prep school, maybe he’s still available?

Just wanted to say Mahalo and great job Brian on the coverage via Courtsense. This timely update helps Warrior Fans stay up to date, and keep our excitement and expectations on possibly adding one or maybe two late prospects in perspective. Appreciate the redux on Valdes’ situation-hope it works out and UH can get the top late add prospects they’re wanting cleared etc. Great job and many Thanks-Courtsense and Warrior Insider do a very nice job keeping Hawaii Basketball Fans dialed in, and building up interest. Mahalo!

I wonder what multiple scenarios mean? Maybe 2 players? And one of them Armstead?
In the coming weeks means next week to the beginning of UH school semester. Guess gotta just stay tuned. Thanks. At least, Brian, you are keeping us interested and on the edge.

One thing about Isaac Fotu. Great footwork. Nose for the ball. Quick feet. Can go right , go left, soft hands, big hands, has a great feel for game. I don’t know who to compare him to. In the past several decades, for a Big at 6’8″ 235 or so, I don’t recall anyone with that skillset. A legit player. He can be real good in my opinion. And he is only a freshman, Don’t recall any freshman post with that ability yet. JMO.

Brian,thanks for the updates. What is your opinion of Fotu at this stage of his game? Does his play remind you of any former Bow from the past? It seems that the diehards are very excited about Fotu.
