Comments on: Rolo says Stutz for Hill “worked out better for us” https://www.hawaiiwarriorworld.com/quick-reads/rolo-says-stutz-for-hill-worked-out-better-for-us/ Thu, 31 Mar 2016 20:26:45 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: pollypicador https://www.hawaiiwarriorworld.com/quick-reads/rolo-says-stutz-for-hill-worked-out-better-for-us/#comment-2638314 Thu, 31 Mar 2016 20:26:45 +0000 http://www.hawaiiwarriorworld.com/?p=36513#comment-2638314 The preceding two head football coaches, Mack and Chow, were notorious for elevating and anointing players and coaches, where in most cases it turned out to be phantom coach talk…and now this.

I hope Rolo’s thirst for building up Stutz and downplaying Hill (who went to Boise) doesn’t turn into another mirage. But do you think a CEO of a big company would publically blow bubbles? No. And to add fuel to the fire the coach said “I should of hired Stutz in the first place and given more preferences to hiring Hawaii connections.” If Rolo’s purpose is to look childish, open the door to the Boise media that the Hawaii coach is devaluing the Hill (and Hill has 10x the resume Stutz has) hiring over a Emory hire and follow in the footsteps of his predecessors by putting his foot in his mouth then he is surely on pace.

In football playing a physically superior team with a deeper and more talented pool of reserves will wear you down physically and can result in many of your starting players sustaining nagging or season ending injuries. Injuries that are less likely to happen in basketball. Sometimes I wish the Coach would strategically put in all the reserves for the games that we are highly unlikely to win in the pre-season, just to keep the starters healthy for the conference. But that wouldn’t be fair to the guys that worked their butts off to play the game.

I believe Rolo will do extremely well with the coaching staff that he has put together. He gets it….protect the rock.

Any weakness it’s exploited not to mention decent backups

Good to see some Hawaii guys getting coaching experience. Now I can check out their games besides the ACC teams around here.

Three Power 5 teams in the first 4 games is brutal for any mid-major, even worse if all three are on the road.

But in fairness, the college football landscape has changed since the Tomey/Wags/Jones era to give so much more advantage – financial and otherwise – to the Power 5 “haves” over the “have nots”.
