Doris: Corey Lau, Samson Anguay commit to UH
Doris Sullivan reports that Corey Lau, a receiver from Kailua High, and Samson Anguay, a slotback/running back from Campbell High, have accepted football scholarships from the Warriors. Lau, who transferred from Saint Louis School a year ago, was the point guard on Kailua’s Division II state championship team.”I’ve always wanted to play for UH,” Lau told the Warrior Beat today.
* * * * *
Guess who’s back?
Yep, linebacker Blaze Soares has fully recovered from an achilles’ injury, and is doing sprint drills at Cooke/Ching field.
Soares, who weighed 259 pounds in April, is now down to 236.
In addition to running and lifting weights, he has kept fit doing yardwork.
* * * * *
Left tackle Aaron Kia also has benefitted from an intense conditioning program. Kia’s weight had dropped to 270 during spring training. But now he has up to 290 while maintaining his agility. He looked nimble during blocking drills yesterday.
* * * * *
Best of luck to Monchalee Steiger, who works for our Web department. She’s jumping out of an airplane today. We wish her a safe descent, and not just because she promises to get Brian Viloria to appear on the Warrior Beat Show.
* * * * *
Today’s sports-bar argument: Game on the line, which current or former UH player gets the ball.
My choices:
1. Ashley Lelie.
2. Trevor Ruffin.
3 (tie) Natasha Kai, Dan “Iceman” Kelly.
* * * * *
Speaking of the Iceman, he has been cleared to play for the Cal Baptist soccer team. He will have two years of soccer eligibility, bringing to six overall the number of seasons he will play in college.
* * * * *
UH is finally going green. After months of prep work, the workers actually are starting to paint the Lower Campus. And unlike the original blue color scheme, this time they’re going with green.
Blaze is da Man..
Good Morning Tsaikos!!
It’s good to see the players out there training.
To our WAC opponents, and all OOC teams…
Fear the Blaze
I pity the first ball carrier who Blaze can “Katoosh”…
Boise State’s Avery can attest to that..
Numba TWO……
I believe if Blaze can stay healthy……the Warrior Defense will surprise!
ok….never mind……Numba 5!
My baseball heroes…..Johnny Bench and Brooks Robinson
BTW the new Island Sports Media mag just came out a few days ago…
Blaze and Brashton are featured in it π
Now that’s what us Warrior fans were waiting to see. Blaze blazin at full speed. Can’t wait baby! Fricken Blaze has 2 years of pain waiting to be unleashed.
Hey Stephen…any word on that conditioning manual? Serious!
It is great to hear that Blaze is back!
welcome back Blaze.
Aaron Kia looking good.

Gmornin gang!
Man, I woke up to da ono fragrance of Kim Chee Fried Rice wafting in from Kaua’i.

Good Morning Gangeez! π
Top Twenny!
Great Pics!
Top 25?
Two of our main men looking good! I hope Blaze can play all season. He crush ’em!
On Blaze. Didn’t he also have shoulder issues? All that pau too? And the medical redshirt, does he have one or 2 more years?
Would be crazy good to see him just do his “Blazething” without pain (his own) for an entire season.
good morning.
yep always good to have players back healthy. but didn’t they move Lolotai in the middle? which side will Soares line up, strongside?
i don’t look like that after doing yard work.
yes faye, st is a sight to behold!
Spambot #27. Not our Faye. π
Auryte Blaze!! Looking good. Can’t wait to see him katoosh some unsuspecting QB, RB, WR, SB. hehehehe. Heard about the time he picked up Jake Santos and slammed him to the ground during a practice. Jake wasn’t wearing the orange jersey…
Blaze can do my yardwork
Aloha Kakahiaka!
Mahalo for the pics, ST. Blaze & Aaron look to be in good shape. Wish I could keep in shape with gardening. ha!
On the Kia pictures, they’re actually working on trap plays. Ray Hisatake is the left guard, but he’s obscured in the pictures.
wow. Blaze is a beast.
is it just me or does Blaze look ever more ripped than he did 2 years ago? Bruddah looks MEAN!!!
Brian Viloria is on Twitter. Just send him a tweet.
Good morning everyone!
Good to see Blaze back!
He does looked ripped.
And he does seem fast. He was running 30-yard sprints, and, well, he was blazin’.
Blaze does have presence.
When he walked out there, all of the linemen stopped working. They went to greet him.
Obvious endorsement opportunity awaits Mr. Soares with Blazin’ Steaks after his UH days are done.
At first I was gonna go with the Mean Joe Green parody… but that’s been done. Instead, I think they should go with a Rocky ripoff… I mean homage.
Diner 1: Ho brah. Deez steaks so ono. And cheap!
Diner 2: And soooo tendah too. I wonder how dey get um li dat?
Cut to scene in meat freezer. Blaze is using the sides of beef as tackling dummies, absolutely crushing them like a Fresno State QB.
Voiceover: That’s not why we’re called Blazin’ Steaks… but it could be.
Genius.
I’m just messing around, of course. Blaze if you’re reading this please don’t hurt me sir.
Please.
I buy you steak plate.

Sports Bar argument….
Jason Elam
Game on the line…depends what sport…
Mens Basketball – Alika Smith
Wahine Basketball – Nani Cockett or Tania Brunton
Mens Volleyball – Yuval Katz or Jason Ring
Wahine Volleyball – Tee Williams
Football – Chad Owens or Ashley Lelie
Complete United Football League draft results I KNOW you’ve all been dying for! Hmmm… don’t see any UH players. No love I tell you…
Kia still look a little slim, but I’m glad he put on the weight… I hope he plays with discipline as he has the potential to be a very good Tackle. This years offensive line I think will surprise and make us forget about that fluke record last season…
Skydiving is pretty safe. Back in 2003 I went for the first time with Drop Zone Hawaii, I don’t think they’re in business anymore.
I’ll never forget the roar of the wind when that door to the plane opened, we tumbled in mid air for about 3 seconds and when we finally straightened out it was difficult to take a breath in. I guess that was due to the sheer speed in which we were falling. Funny thing is you don’t even feel like you are falling at all, it feels more like you are suspended in air with the world’s strongest fan underneath you.
In a matter of 5 seconds after leaving the plane they pull the parachute, and this is where I learned one must wear jeans as opposed to basketball shorts when skydiving. You see, the harness is like a backpack but it also has two straps that goes around your crotch area and wraps across both your thighs… your upper thighs.
I mean think about it⦠the speed at which you are falling combined with the sudden YANK of a parachute PLUS thin shorts = PAIN in the nether regions. It felt like the hand of God coming down and giving me a front-side weggie.
Anyway, the slow descent with the chute was nice, it lasted about 10 minutes and this is where you really can see the view and appreciate what you just accomplished. It was cool because all of a sudden the roar of the wind and atmosphere was deafening, but once they pull the chute, it becomes completely silent.
I’ve never gone back but I want to.
RE: Offensive line discipline and improvement.
Coach Gordy Shaw get ’em. No worries, we got a great coach working with our Warriors.
Game on da line… I’d want the ball to go to (in the hands of):
Men’s Basketball: Matt Gibson
Wahine Basketball: BJ Itoman
Warrior Volleyball: Yuval Katz
Wahine Softball: Tyleen Tausaga
Warrior Football: Jason Rivers
Rainbow Baseball: Kolten Wong
Kazz
Yup I not worried, cause like bruddah Inoke said in his interview…this years team motto should be “Discipline”! I’m sure it’s not just the Coach who get em, but the players and especially the Seniors. Our Oline this year all Seniors so I know they going keep each other in check and set the example for everybody else…
Oh crap, I forgot about Wahine Volleyball. I agree with Pauoa Boy with Tee Williams.
Did they call him “sir”? π―
G-nalo,
Yup. Soares would be aligned on the strong side.
hope Blaze don’t get hurt doing any yard work….fingers crossed.
two words…..stay healthy!!!!, pretty please!!???
Blaze with shirt off!!!…heck!, that looks just like me at 60-somethin!!!, and don’t wake me up from my sleeep eh!!!
Speaking of “60”…
Blaze Soares destroyed the periodic table of elements, because he only recognizes the element of surprise.
Blaze Soares can eat just one Lay’s potato chip.
#51 – sky diving huh? awesome stuff Kazz.
ok, Soares will be strong side, mahalo.
eh, i clean yard all the time but i only get sore back??!!
If you have $5.00 and Blaze Soares has $5.00, Blaze Soares still has more money than you.
(If the compliance people are reading this, the $5.00 Blaze Soares has is his own and not given to him by a booster.)
Blaze’s yard work will help to create some sore back… sore running back, sore quarterback! π
Aloha Stadium Visual Update
Well I guess they heard the cries of “HURRY UP”.
While only half the mauka sideline and entire north endzone roof is being worked on now, they are about to finish installing the new roof in what looks like a matter of days.
The new roof looks to be black.
Again, if this is going to be some half-a**ed job to only repair the “urgent” areas, the stadium will look HORRIBLE. Hope the ENTIRE roof will be replaced in time for the season.
Game on the line?
Colt Brennan. Undefeated one year. Nuff said.
DPK,
They once made a Blaze Soares brand of toilet paper, but it wouldn’t take **** from anybody.
MRS A-HOUSE: I send your message about Koa Anuenue to one of the directors. Going to have lunch with him on Wednesday.
Lunch owah!

LIHUE
Woo hoooooo! Blaze is baaaaaaack!
Oops. Hi Tsaikos. Good morning and happy aloha friday!
…bah >… you know what I meant…
I’m limiting to football…
If I need a final drive to win, it’s gotta be Colt.
Tie game, with no timeouts, ball on the 50 yd line….Jason Elam…just like DPK said. Better than gold during the Depression.
Piper’s Son,
I was just about to follow up with A-house on that UNPLEASANT incident with that individual that picked up the phone in the Koa Anuenue office.
I have never had something like that happen with Koa Anuenue people before or in fact with anyone working on lower campus.
Man, that person had NO idea what kind of UH supporter she was being rude to.
Man, Blaze looks big! I hope he gets down to about 225-230 at the most.
He’s so important to the team I would withold him from contact drills as much as possible. We can’t afford to lose him for any extensive time in games. The guy is a playmaker deluxe.
Yesterday, I posted a link to an article talking about Ben Johnson’s incredible 9.79 sec 100m time in the Olympics when he was juiced to the gills with steriods. In the tape analysis of 10 meter increments, they determined that he also went faster than the world records for the 50m and 60m. Bottom line…he was credited with a 40 yd time of 4.38. According to the NFL combine results, there are lots of athletes who are faster…LOL
So, I don’t get excited about these hand held times that are often thrown around for football players’ 40 yd sprints…the variance is huge. Good to know that a player is comparably “very fast” among his peers, tho’.
Overall Game on the line: Derek Tatsuno
Football: Colt to Bess
wvolleyball: angelica lundquist
mbasketball: next year
softball: brooke wilkins
wbasketball: tania brunton
mvolleyball: yuval Katz
Betty runs a 4.2 40 to check on BG laying flat out in centerfield..
Overall game on line
MBBall, no argument about Tats
WVB, Heather Bown
WSB, again agree w/Ralph
that ralph, he one sharp cookie.
g nalo, you get mail!!!
Hands down Colt remember San Jose St.
looks like G Nalo and Whitey planning on a Philippines invasion, then recoup in Bangkok
BG:
I think there are a lot of players who ran faster than Ben Johnson. He was racing over 100 meters, and the key is that he accelerated as he went on. What’s a world record over 100 meters isn’t a record over 40 yards.
#82…agree. the greatest comeback against the most difficult and most impossible odds.
#2 was sitting amidst all of the sjsu student body going nutz. they too were in total awe at colt & company that day. not too mention my kid going nutz. he said at the end of the game the sjsu fans also cheered for colt.
Wena always tells me that yardwork is the best form of exercise. She often says I should try it some time.
st….how about a recap of the 09 recruit class?
who’s in….
who’s coming and when……….
who’s on the bubble….
who’s not in…….
who’s walking on (altho this is probably the most well kept secret)…..
mahalo in advance.
pssst. st.
i know this filipino yard man who does a great job and is very reasonable.
want his number?
yup his name is “louie the filipino yardman & co.” dats da name of the guys company.
Why don’t they time players in full pads?
looks like G Nalo and Whitey planning on a Philippines invasion, then recoup in Bangkok
easy Ralph……………..
reality check…..
7.4 % unemployment rate for the state of hawaii.
or
1 out of 13.5 people are out of work
or
if the aloha stadium were sold out, 3,700 sitting in the stands are unemployed
scary part is that it does not take into account for a lot of people that have only a part time job and are looking for more work to maintain a lifestyle.
whitey you missed ralph’s que……………
you supposed to follow up with
“so what ralph, you like come with us?”
ST (#84)
Not true about accelerating over 100m. The last 30-35 meters, sprinters are trying to maintain form and speed…no mo acceleration. Take it from an ex sprint coach. Plus, he beat the world records at 50 and 60 meters which means that his acceleration rate was incredible. Yet, the video only validated a 4.38 40 time. That’s a HUGE statement on a lot of claimed sub 4.4 times.
Wena always tells me that yardwork is the best form of exercise. She often says I should try it some time.
but don’t just rush in, gotta prepare first. hey i’m offering to train with you one day a week, i know a place in Waimanalo?
al
That unemployment example is scary!!! Can’t imagine the western states that have hit 10% and beyond.
and Murakami stadium used to have a lot of blue seats and the outfield fence was also blue…someone at UH who decides the color scheme likes blue- i always thought we must have hired a BYU grad who makes these decisions…
bg….the economy in jeopardy is a real thing.
what i’d like to see is our govt both fed and state look at cutting aid to foreign markets, development, and other types of welfare assistance to non-citizens first to reduce the budget. then use those monies to help our own country’s citizens.
…nuff said.
Just got my Phil Steele mag yesterday and glanced at it last night. He goes to great lengths and uses some pretty sophisticated models. From a historical perspective, he really is quite accurate compared to his peers. But, he still misses 1 out of 4 predictions.
For Hawaii, he can’t factor in the new coaches and the players with starting experience who were injured (Rocky, Blaze, for instance) or the players who played in a rotation or package, but were not considered starters (i.e. Brashton, Meatoga, etc). Will make a significant difference, IMO
2006 late in the 4th.. Hawaii clinging to a lead..Purdue is driving.. 2nd down and a frosh LB wearing #53 BLAZES in and sacks the QB.. Next play 3rd & long.. Int Hawaii.. Ahhhh hana hou in ’09…
i wonder if our federal gov’t is continuing to give Israel and Egypt 10 billions dollars in aid each year. Israel gets the bulk of the 10 billion..I don’t recall the U.S. gov’t stopping this aid, it is claimed that the money helps stabilize the middle east and keeps the Suez Canal open..how come our European allies don’t see it this way, or Japan, is it because the U.S. is the only country with a large contingent of Israel lobbyists.
in these hard times I agree with Al, stop foreign aid, all aid for direct giving for disaster and humanitarian needs, instead channel all giving through the United Nations and ask all industrialized nations to contribute equally for all types of aid…
I glanced at Phil Steele’s pub, not much support for UH, its players by position or as a team by offense or defense…boys just got to strap it up and do it on the field this fall…let their work ethic do the talking for them…
For the longest time, the Stanley was the only UH venue that represented the true colors of UH.
Good thing Murakami Stadium caught up recently.
Next… Aloha Stadium! (yeah right… π )
Would rather take in the reports from beatwriters that have CLOSER access to the Warriors than someone thousands of miles away.
KK pau (burp) now back to work!
Kazz, is the new Aloha Stadium roof really black? It really did look green to me. And not just the cloth draped over it…
baa
Truegreen,
Maybe it is green, like a dark green. I’m kind of color blind.
But did you see it today? Whatever color it is, the new roof being put in will stick out as it’s darker.
I think Phil Steele does a good job of crunching the numbers that he has. Thing is, he only gets basic numbers. Penalties per play, fumbles per carry, etc.
He doesn’t have situational numbers, like UH’s success rate on 2nd-and-8 from the right hashmark.
Or, of course, YACs and YAHs.
…or missed tackles.
…or missed tackles per rush.
Corey Lau from Kailua is the newest Warrior! He was offered by UH and committed right away. Said ” it was my dream to be a warrior so I just committed”.
Corey is an academic qualifier – no issues there with him.
He had the top times in the 40, L Drill and T Drill at the PIAA Combine on May 30. All the times/results are on our site.
Wooo Hooo! You Go Corey!
Yeah it’s impossible for these magazine guys to view all 120 FBS teams up close and personal, so they have to rely on #s.
I don’t doubt they know their football in general, but personally I wouldn’t put much stake in sole #s alone.
Yeah Steele predicted we’d be a great turn-around team in 1999, but I think we were pretty far off the radar for anyone to really pay attention and if Steele ended up being wrong, I don’t think he’d get much slack for it. Besides, a former NFL guy in JJ coming to save UH, I think it would have been a “safe” bet for an outsider to guess we’d have a turn-around year.
Steele also predicted we’d get the BCS invite in 2007… Well, despite some naysayers, 2007 was the first time UH got multiple outlets guessing the same thing with our fair share of naysayers. Again, it wasn’t exactly a BOLD prediction in 2007 on his part.
Mahalo Doris for the scoops!
I called ST first but he didnt pick up!! Left a message but I was so excited for Corey I had to post it.
Kazz, yeah I think dark green…like “Warrior green”. Not sure but I’ll look again when I pass by later today. Would be cool if they used that color for the stands and the seats too…
Who is a Warrior? Corey Lau, of course!
Hi, everyone!
Yeah, he no answer his phone yeah? π
Alright Corey!
Mahalo Doris!
Go Warriors!
My bad. Corey’s a slotback.
Thanks for the head’s up, Doris. Just spoke with him. Great kid.
I thought this day would never get here.
Like I told the kids today, there are only about 80 days before the first day of school!
Strangely, there were no cheers — except mine. All I got was a lot of sad looks.
Oh well.
You’re probably right about the dark green roof. Like I said I am pretty color blind.
For YEARS I thought UH had black football helmets. π
Game on the line I would snap the ball to Walter Santiago who used to hold for Jason Elam.
Samson Anguay, Strong Saftey from Campbell has just committed to UH! Two commits from local boys in one day!
We’re on a roll!
Sorry….Samson is a Slotback..
All right!!! Whoo-hoo for Samson! We need another Hercules, too!
Kazz…he no answer again!
I can just see the PAC10 coaches refocusing their radars as we speak:
Corey who?
Where does this Loyd kid live?
What’s Anguay’s father’s first name?
Can we get game film on all three?
Sweet Aloha Friday News!
Thanks Again Doris!
We put a nickel in the slot…and this is what we got…
Samson and Corey!
Go Warriors!
Thanks for the updates Doris!
πΏ
Hey, Doris. Thanks for the info. I tried to call you back, but your cell doesn’t accept calls.
as the world turns, so do the warriors and their newest committs.
whitey, committs would be baseball recruits π
Thanks ST…since I got this new fancy phone I’ve had trouble with my VM when Im on the line on another call, it backs up calls and I dont see that they are there. Last week I had 26 calls in VM that I never saw come in. Thanks for the heads up. Anyone else have this problem with an Iphone? if so, how do you remedy it. AT&T said “just check now and then” but I really shouldnt have to. I’ve had AT&T for like 10 years and the fancier the phone the stupider it is.
Great Afternoon All!
Woo Hoo! Friday! π
1. down by 2 – Elam; down by 6 – Colt (then Elam for the win)
2. AC Carter
3. if holding a lead – Tats; if need a base hit – Mario Monico; if need one Grand Salami – Joey Meyer
Good news on the recruits. Keep up the hard word Doris.
Good news all day today.
Good to hear Blaze Soares is back on the field.
Hope the OL workouts are going well.
Howzit Everybody,
Like al said yesterday (I think), let the flood gates open cause the commits are going to keep on comin.
I guess it just took one commit to break the ice.
Mahalo much Aunty Doris for all you do for the student-athletes of hawaii and for their families.
It is shaping up to be another great recruiting season.
Great news from Doris.
Corey Lau is a terrific athlete. Big loss for SLS; big pickup for Kailua and now UH.
Athletic sibling, Samantha, ripped it up at Linfield this past year in volleyball as a true frosh. Nice parents.
Corey Lau is a terrific athlete. Big loss for SLS; big pickup for Kailua and now UH.
hmm………Go Surfriders?
#111
I think Tony T and Doris would work so well together for UH. Think about it…..
The 2 new recruits are short and light, but I gotta believe the coaches must have felt that they liked some of the things they did in the recent combine, camps, and in speaking w/ their high school coach(es). It’s an inexact science, but the coaches have to project a recruit a couple of years in advance and put in the work to get stronger, faster, and heavier w/ more muscle. Their size seems to be about Channon Harris and Chad Owens. Oh, and Matt Harding!!! What were Samson’s combine stats? Anyway, good luck to them in being new Warriors.
Losing all-league linebackers Solomon Elimimian and Adam Leonard deals the defense its biggest blow. Not only were these guys two of the best players on the team, but they were also two of the best leaders. The Warriors are confident that Brashton Satele and R.J. Kiesel-Kauhane are capable replacements. Blaze Soares and Paipai Falemalu figure to fit in the picture in the linebacking corps as well. John Fonoti, the teamβs leading returning tackler with 62 stops last season, anchors the defensive line from the end position.

Doris,
Thank you for the news on the two commits!
Welcome to the Warriors Corey Lau and Samson Anguay!
One nice thing about getting slotbacks as early commits is that there is less poaching risk…since many schools don’t use slotbacks as much and use TEs instead.
Congratulations to Dick Tomey for the honor of being part of this inaugural induction class!
Another article about Coach Tomey’s honor. Happy Birthday to Coach Tomey!
To answer Ralph’s question from the other day, Mac will be a part of this year’s Samoa Football Academy being put on by JJ’s Foundation. Jesse Sapolu, Jack Thompson, Samson Satele, Taβase Faumui and Maβa Tanuvasa will also participate. They are also bringing $250,000 of donated medical supplies to the people of American Samoa.
This is for our socal tsaikos.
LOS ANGELES–JUNE 19, 2009– American, JetBlue, Virgin
America and other airlines recently revealed wide-ranging
discounts on flights from L.A. The sale fares reach new
lows of $48-$109 each way for travel through September to
many popular domestic destinations.
In some cases, these fares are 50 percent less than last
year’s prices.
Each-way sale fares include flights from L.A. to:
– Denver … $48
– San Francisco … $49
– Seattle … $69
– Austin … $79
– Fort Lauderdale … $99
– New York City … $109
– Washington, D.C. … $109
– Boston … $109
PIAA DS – iPhone is a wonderful thing. No worry. Couple of no call reasons- check to see if your mute switch is on. That’s the little silver switch on the left side near the top. If you see a red dot, it is on mute. Flip it the other way.
Other problem could be a bad signal area where the call could not reach you. Then VM picks it up and lets you know when you have a signal again.
JUNE JONES – if you are reading this – WELCOME BACK TO HAWAII!!!
Have a great Golf Tournament and MAHALO!
For 2010, I hope they bring in a couple of bruising RBs. Athletes who can block as well as run.
Thanks Liz…I figured the mute out – the hard way, thought the phone was broke, took it back to the store. Luckily they are really nice people and didnt look at my blonde hair (albiet not natural) and make jokes! Could be the signal. Ill have to look at that.
Lau is listed at 5’8 and 140 lbs….don’t get hit by Blaze just yet, see Heffenan or De Laura for workout schedule before contact drills. this is about princess Leila’s size, do not hit the princess….
Tania Brunton’s bio states that she is bigger than Corey, including weight…
Ralph,
I don’t think Leila’s a 140………..
π
Doris,
Try going to Settings/Sounds/New Voicemail and make sure it’s on.
duffer heavier?
your call Duffer!
whitey, long time no see. Gotta plan breakfast one morning next month. I have three extra days off………..
Ralph,
I know better…. π
Much lighter!
I am guessing M. Steiger’s jump was a success.
I could not do that. The bungee jump was more than enough. I kept asking if the four rubber bands were enough, and if they were new. Good thing I had gone swimming before the jump — no one could not see how much shi-shi came out on the way down.
Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Duffer can’t be much lighter, she’s an athlete! I know a lot of HS athletes who played fast pitch and soccer, and who are shorter than the princess, and all of them weight in at about 135
Perhaps, Coach Mack will post Phil Steele’s predictions/comments somewhere for the Warriors to read and perhaps the players will use this info as a “motivation” factor in off-season training and fall camp.
WELCOME, to the 3 newest recruits for 2010! We are blessed with your decison to contribute to the Warrior’s legacy!
Doris,
You should also see a “badge” appear over the phone application icon when you have a missed call or voicemail. The badge is just a superimposed number showing you how many calls missed and unread voicemails. If voicemail badges are not showing up pretty quickly then there is a problem that AT&T needs to look at. You just have to get into the habit of not ignoring badges.
Kekoa:
remember “jump school” the thigh straps were so tight we would walk with bended backs to the aircraft for jumps.

Speaking of running backs, what happened to Jack Sula?

#144,
I hope Samson and Corey have Chad Owens work ethic in the gym and on the field. Growing up in the Valley we were at Booth Park everyday, either playing BBall with the boys or playing football on the field. He always had quick feet and was intense in everything. At RHS he would always be in the gym with Kalilimoku, Kapanui, Keomaka and the boys lifting and running sprints in the gym. He was always on a strict diet and had the discipline to stick with it. Although he’s small in stature, bruddah is strong and ripped and quick as a cat.
Good evening Tsai-kos!!
Where is everyone? The kk is tomorrow night, right?
Welcome to the Warrior ohana, Corey Lau and Samson Anguay!!
Congrats for to UH football on verbal commitments of 3 projected offensive players.
Top guys I would want with the ball in their hands:
Colt Brennan handing off to Nate Ilaoa or passing the football to Jason Rivers, Devon Bess, Chad Owens and Ashley Lelie
Best of luck to Blaze Soares!
JMxxxx karaoke is at Genji’s tomorrow, about 7 pm
I have an “After 2100 Ask the Blog” question…
I received an inquiry (involving hwnstln) asking about oama fishing in August…like at Kaawa beach in years past. Anyone have current insights about the oama runs and fishing nowadays?
I used to catch oama with small bamboo poles at Lanikai beach in Kailua when I was young, but that’s a looong time ago… π
Anguay is listed at 5’8 155lbs…both guys have youtube highlites.
SteveM,
I’m going to arrive a little late tomorrow, though not too late. We have a dinner with friends in Pearl City tomorrow, the only day that both families have free. I made the dinner at 5pm so that I can drop off Lori and the kids by 7pm and then head to Genji’s. I should get there between 7:30 and 8pm.
Most of the regulars here know that I think that the Chargers are going to basically be forced to leave San Diego soon, and a likely destination in LA. The marketing agreement between the Chargers and an LA group and the close ties between the ownership of the Chargers and the people who are building the stadium in LA…makes this seem quite likely.
If the new stadium goes up in LA, I hope that JD contacts them right away to try to get a UH game played there every year. That is a real cash cow for many teams. For example, Arkansas and Texas A&M are playing a game every year at the Cowboys new stadium–they were going to make $5 million EACH per year, but the economic downturn will mean that they “only” make $4 million each. After expenses that comes to $3.5 million per team…a neutral site game each year for UH could really make a difference in the budget.
Also, having a game in LA every year would be HUGE for UH’s recruiting in Southern California.

I’ll take broadband internet over cable TV anyday. Depending on what you watch, it might be smart to disconnect your cable. A lot of stuff is online now, either on the network Web site or places like Hulu.
Jason,
I’m not surprised about internet beating cable TV, but I am a little surprised with the internet beating cell phones…especially considering how much some people use text messaging and how well smartphones can surf the web.

I know for me, I don’t text, and I don’t use my cell too often. Then again, I’d probably cut out my land line before cutting off my cell.
I got a lot of work done today and plan to work all night. I’m trying to keep up with my work despite all the family activities–I just work when my kids nap and after they go to sleep. Crazy work schedule, especially with a $500k proposal needing to be sent out on July 1 (and I leave Hawaii on July 1)…I’m really looking forward to taking a break for Genji’s. If I look a little tired tomorrow, I have good reason!
hooking oama?
a soon to be extinct summer past time.
too many folks using illegal netting devices have just about irradicated the schools.
Back online for a quick post before calling it a (loooong) day.
Of course there are differing opinions on the worth of preseason mags. It’s important to keep a perspective on them. They sell for a reason. Hopefully, it’s for entertainment purposes only…but we all know they feed betting habits for some. In the past, I read them all. FWIW, I eventually narrowed it down to Phil Steele for all the number crunching and historical info it gave…but, that’s me.
If someone is really looking for accurate predictions for 120 teams in these magazines when there is such limited stability for most teams (players graduate)…well, I can recommend a local psychic in
okay, there is one large school every year next to the old natatorium. must be thousands that congregate there year after year.
the problem is, is that the waters left of the natatorium are permanently off limits to any type of fishing.
wow! A mystery ending in #192!!!
…Whitmore Village. Realizing that, I value the mag for the information on other teams and the broader national perspective…keeping in mind that there’s always faulty information included and there’s minimal information on in-coming frosh. If all anyone wants is information on the Warriors, then by all means, the best info is right here on the WB and Sports Hawaii. Only problem with that is the risk of developing tunnel vision.
OK. Make it a great weekend!!!!
oops….sorry. right of the natatorium.
Goodnight, gang … and see you tomorrow night.
duffer….aren’t you gonna find it tough to put in all those extra hours that you do. you know, no more o.t., as in own time.
SteveM- Last year the o’ama AND the halalu were pretty scarce. I did not even get out for o’ama fishing at all. This is on Kauai, I’m talking about.
We used to have a good halalu season starting in June but the big swarms were nonexistant last year.
Pix of the Kauai Kall are on my log- just click my name.
Nice to see Kymry and Gary today! We will all be together in Las Vegas!

I notice in one picture both Gary’s and Liz oxtail bowl are full, next picture Gary has nearly a full bowl but Liz is empty and bones stripped bare on a plate that had a scoop of rice.. Hungry Liz? π
