Camp sights
Quarterback coach/play-caller Jordan Wynn threw well — and often.
Receivers coach Luke Matthews ran routes.
Defensive coordinator Kevin Clune hit the blocking sled, running backs coach Wayne Moses ran, linebacker coach Kurt Gouveia demonstrated a space-creating move, and so forth. Center Kody Afusia and defensive lineman Kennedy Tulimasealii also led drills.
The UH football clinics are show-and-tell sessions. Yesterday’s 5-hour camp was at Roosevelt High. The series continues with Monday’s camp at Waiakea High.

GOOD MORNING HAWAII!
ST- great shots!
ST- what was the attendance at RHS?
And good morning to you.
Morning all.
Whoa, that’s a nice field up at Roosevelt High. Roughriders rate, eh?
I hadn’t been there since I covered a high school game in 1987. Very nice field. I understand the NFL and the Garrett Ogawa-led alumni association helped pay for the field.
Aloha all–damn, that’s a nice looking field!!! Imua Waiakea!
bo montgomery is the new recruiting coordinator?
Making memories. Thanks to all of the above.
Guud Morning Tsaikos…bootiful day.
pretty soon Fall Camp…time waits for no one…IMUA WARRIORS!
does not appear that there were too many athletes at the camp. why?
I didn’t take pics of any students because I’m not clear on the rule.
The ‘UH: Highest College Athletics Travel Costs in the Nation, Help!’ campaign has only generated less than half of the $10,000 goal.
You can help put it over the top!
Contributions can be sent to the University of Hawaii Foundation either through its website or send a check = make sure you earmark it for the above.
Thanks.
I have asked UHAD for clear instruction about sending personal checks to UH Foundation. The UHAthletics website does not provide these instructions; only on-line credit card donations are clearly detailed. I still have not received any information. It must be at least two months since I asked via email. Maybe one of you can post this information on this blog.
Hatakeman:
Are you trying to donate to the overall athletic department or a specific sport such as football or softball?
With all the problems that the athletic department is dealing with right now the news that many athletes had their stipend checks delayed forcing some to sleep in the locker room, go hungry or miss rent. Not the kind of news they needed right now.
In other futbol news, Spain gets spanked by the toking Amsterdamians…GO NETHERLANDS!
TGIF!
Bandwagon soccer junkie…GO BRASIL!
Howzit Tsaikos!
Nice pics, ST!
jtl – pick a team and stay on the bandwagon. No getting off!
Espana will rise again!
ESPN – College Football live report UH football players missed checks forced to sleep in lockers & beach. Bad exposure!
Interesting that a fan wants to donate money and is asking the AD specifics about how to write his check and no response. Then he is asking for money to cover the high costs of travel on a fundraising website. Don’t make sense to me.
I was living in Brasil for work during the 2002 World Cup that was held in Japan. Because of the time difference the games came on at 3:30am; in this small town I was located in Bahia, police would run the sirens at 3:15am to get everyone up, and then all the bars would reopen–you gotta love brasil–adoro brasil!!

Maybe you should contact UH Foundation instead.
ST or any UH Football Player who has to sleep in the locker room…
My family and I get room at my condo if you need a place to sleep and food to eat. Just write to ST he has my email….
“somebody needs to get punched in the face at UH”
22. I think that would be an NCAA violation by giving free room to a player.
From what people are saying it sounds like the late stipend checks has been going on for a while. Too many excuses and not enough answers. Just another black eye to an already beat up program.
Let me see if I got this correct! You can ‘starve’ a cat, dog, horse, and get ur arse hauled before a judge 4 ‘cruelty to animals’…..but deny food n housing 4 a NCAA ‘scholarship athletic’…n is ok…
cuz only 9 days….n our AD says…’we have to be careful how we approach this’ or something to that effect…
Yea I dare say something is definitely wrong here, or at the NCAA, or both.
A yesterday a blogger, with patience to spare, explaining his delima (me podogee) on season ticket renewals, n the ‘E. K. Fernandez’ ride they put him through.
Then out of the other side of the mouth….please donate…please buy season tickets….please ‘warriors’ play hard for your school…be proud…attend volunteer workouts…bust your arse 4 ur school…don’t worry, we will take care of you….sounds like a sitting governor huh?…
23: Pono….not if he is my “family friend”. In Hawaii we all calabash cousins right, come come…come inside…no worry about the NCAA-dey don’t know anyting anyways.
Regarding the late stipends, there is ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR IT…If this was private business, those accounting folks (e.g. Accounts Payable) would be fired for total incompetance. Being unionized, the UH breeds incompetancy in its administration staff and there are alot of folks working there who are simply there for the paycheck and not doing any work. This has been going on for years…WHERE IS DMK NOW??? Surely had alot to say about athletics, but this is simply incompetancy at the core of the UH.
26. If it was a cute volleyball player that might be another story.
27. Most university staffs are unionized. Why is is that only at our university do these things happen?
I think it’s OK if the players find temporary places on their own. It’s not OK if the school tries to help. That’s what got Boise State in trouble.
Happy Aloha Friday Gang. EH! Smile….., you guys live in Paradise!
Happy Fathers Day weekend to all of us who are lucky enough to know the joys of parenthood.
…on a somber note, UH lost a Super Fan (my Father-In-Law) this past Sunday. Will miss cheering on the Bows with him. Let’s Go Bows.
If they have not gotten their checks as of this blog, we should keep a daily count of how many days it will be until the matter is cleared.
Can you imagine if a professor had to with this long for his check?
Can you imagine what would happen if the administrators, president and others up there had to wait this long for their checks?
Seems like athletics are an after thought, a nagging inconvenience for the institution to have to eventually get around to dealing with.
Agree, where is the outcry from grandstanding politicians?? DMK, Will Espero, Mark Takai, Sam Slom????
Players at D-IAA schools like Weber State get taken better care of than at UH.
3-Prong — my condolences on the passing of your father-in-law.
Always very sad when we lose another long time UH fan.
me thinks all these comments need to be forwarded to UH Administration. They need to be bombarded with e-mails expressing dissatisfaction.
It’s still baffling why UH just can’t front the money for a delayed check. The money already is budgeted. And how hard is it to just cut a check?
sounds like going to the UH really sucks. no wonder hard for recruit. #headupthea$$
3-prong, much aloha and condolences to you and your ohana!
It is not just the athletes. As I previously posted, my child’s experience at Purdue, which is way larger than the UH was second to none. It is the entire institution’s mindset with regard to it’s student population. Purdue values its students and it shows.
Both schools are land grant institutions and that’s where the similarities end.
3-Prong ~ Your f-i-l has perpetual season tickets in the WB Memorial section of God’s stadium in the sky. May he rest in peace.
ST: Cutting checks requires signature’s and personnel with urgency to run down ADM signature, if it’s even UHAD procedure. Woes of a small budget program!
Not a *peep* from the new UH President since being selected. This is more than just a ‘tardy’ situation when folks are waiting for their financial aide. Step up or step aside. They skipped over a well-rounded leader who may have had a solution in short order.
UH can cut a check (wire transfer) for $200K to someone posing as a concert promoter, but can’t take care of its own student-athletes. Correct me if I’m wrong, but the finance guy who said OK to the $200K wire transfer is still employed by UH. Unbelievable. Talk about no accountability.

You’re wrong.
SteveM, boo, kekoa: Thank you.
Additional side notes on my Father-In-Law.
– he owned Bowling Shirts Inc. If you were a bowler in the 60s, 70s, and 80s you wore his shirts. Yes, the ones with the black fuzzy flocked letters!
– for many years until his fairly recent retirement, hand embroidered the names in script on all the Wahine V-Ball jerseys and warmups.
– a graduate of UH, he loved the Rainbows. In his younger days he went to the football and basketball games. Since then he would not miss any UH event on TV especially football, basketball, men’s vball, and his beloved Wahine.
Too bad they didn’t hire the Officer. They found me in the jungles, on R&R, wherever I happened to be, monthly, and paid me in cash and on time.
3-prong, sounds like a great life and even a greater man! Hope to share a cold one with him, one day, on the other side….
The sad thing is civilians don’t realize that the military is one of the largest educational system in the US; from community college to University; to graduate school. They have trade schools from; Pole linemen, Engineers, Computer Science, baccalaureate and Graduate courses.
Oh and by the way; they feed and house over five million people a day.
UH incompetence has reached the web.

At least the folks in charge are really good at screwing up. How much of a raise or job extension will they get for putting UH in the national spotlight of shame?
Finally pau school.
Greetings to everyone
3-Prong . . . sorry about your father-in-law. I am sure he continues to cheer from the best seats in the House!
This sure hurts recruiting!!!!
Call channel 2 News! Gaurans they get answers! Embarrass the bureaucrats.
3 prong, no worry he going catch his share of spring chinooks and he might give you one. My best to you and your family.
#4,
Mostly paid for by funds appropriated by the State Leg….

@50. Why beat around the bush when talking about who is in charge of athletics? Say it. Ben jay. Wassamatta you, you ben’s kin? The national embarrassment falls on Ben jays lap, who, by the way, doesn’t give a rip as he is too busy visiting family and friends in Philly on his “business trip”.
3-prong…my sincere heartfelt condolences to you and your wife’s ohana.
reflect on the memories.
he made the only bowling shirt I ever owned…back in the day. waaaaay back in the day.
aloha
3prong, was your father in laws name Merv? Think I met him a long time ago when I was in the industry. I do remember that Bowling Shirts was the place to go to get a fair price, quality and timely work. May he rest in peace.
Boo, wafan, whitey and al. Thank you again.
Bigfan: Everyone knew him as “Lefty”…..
62…didn’t he hang out at bowl-o-drome?
UH hasnt had good national exposure since 2007 🙁
I hope that changes this season 🙂
FJ….thought he was in Florida….but at least this post of yours…little less ‘chili pepper water’…
is nice you not blame Mr. Chow this time…have hope 4 you yet …..maybe….he he he
Whoever the qb is this year, he’ll be surrounded by an experienced offensive team. I’m expecting to see Iosefa, Lakalaka and the receiving corp to have a breakout season.
