I guess bows hoops 808 and hawaii hoops already know this, but Avea has scholarship offers from Hawaii, Montana, Wyoming, and Weber State.

Some scouting services has Avea rated as a three-star recruit.

We don’t get those too often.

Isaac Fleming was a three-star recruit.

In reply to hawaiihoops. Apologies hawaiihoops, first-time posters have to get approved manually. You should be good to go from now on. As for Avea, when I have an update on him, I'll pass it along.

Can we get an update on Samuta Avea? He’s back on the islands.

Brian –
Judging by his Twitter (@32muta), former Kahuku standout Samuta Avea is back on the islands. I wanted to know if you knew anything about his recruiting status with UH. Have they reached out to him recently? I see he has an offer but I really hope they are making a serious push for him. The guy is crazy talented and UH could have a good shot at landing him if he wants to come home.

Perhaps they could make sure he makes it to Monday’s rally if he’s still on the islands….that may help.

Any chance you could get an interview with him/run an article? I think he has a fascinating story, being raised here and then making the tough decision moving to Utah. Any update would be fantastic.
