Going to a Hukilau
Norm Chow will be making his first open-to-the-public speaking appearance at noon Wednesday at the Hukilau on Bishop Street.
It also will mark the first event of Hawaii’s newly created Downtown Athletic Club, which will bring sports figures to Honolulu’s downtown area.

Close to 1st
morning!
Top ten.
Isn’t amazing that we have all these people here that know what Chow is going to do, I guess we don’t need the coach to say anything.
Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂
New Club, new Coach… …yes, the culture is shifting for UH sports!

A win in Men’s basketball or volleyball doesn’t create a euphoria that lasts for days like a good Warrior football win. It’s sunday and already I’m feeling Warrior/Bows sports withdrawal symptoms.
Any more recruiting news? Or are we in a dead period when no one is supposed to talk about recruits? What about the recruits secured prior to hiring of Coach Chow? Are they still coming or are they now free to make new choices again? Very very anxious to know what kind of players this regime can recruit. Von Appen tried to run the Pro-Set but could ot recruit players and thereby leading us into the 0-19 period. I think Coach Chow is also a better coach than Von Appen, at least, just by comparing their resumes. However, there must be enough good players who are willing to play at UH in order for him to be successful. If I am not mistakened, our top prospect from Hawaii committed for Stanford and the number two declared to attend Oregon. I thought Coach Chow got an offensive lineman but I’ve also heard that another offensive linemen who had committed to UH before had de-committed. I wonder if our host can give us a little bit of news on the recruiting front?
Whether or not Coach Chow is in San Antonio this weekend or not is not a biggie…nobody there will be blocking, tackling, throwing or catching in September anyway.
His public appearances, otoh, will be important especially here at home. Hope he starts off well.

Is this a rift with Na Koa? Or just a new avenue?
Wow, I really envy those who will be attending. Those that do, please pass on the juicy tidbits from Coach Chow regarding staff & recruiting status. Mahalo.

It’s saying that Nick Rolovich will not be retained
GOOD MORNING HAWAII!
Thought the basketball game was a good one – though the 2nd half was a bit worrisome for a while.
Euphoria lasts as long as your particular passion dictates.
In short it depends on the person enjoying the win and appreciating all the other UH student-athletes and programs.
Its a new sports season with more sports to enjoy and focus on.
But that is optional for people to realize.
But..
mornin.
Downtown Athletic Club – hope that they also will raise funds from previously untapped sources.
So whats our real chances of landing Lakalaka , Wooching , Jaydon Mickens?
and are we pursuing Benny Fonua??
Russell Siavi’i??
#13 PD, maybe they heard it on this blog.:)
Good morning, gang!
Wish I could be there on Wednesday…
#20…
you must mean …Yesterday’s blog… 😉
I thought Pauly D was leaving Jersey Shore. It’s Vinnie who’s leaving.
Thanks Coach Rolo for your time here. I have a feeling he will be back one day.
I thought only women watch the Jersey Shore.. same as with those mind-numbing shows like X Factor and American Idol.
Then again keep seeing Robert K talking about it on the ole FB.. makes me wonder, but he’s a big guy so I an’t gonna say much… 😆
Mornin….Go Giants!! good luck Broncos aka( Teebow!!!)
ST:
Did we offer Fonua?
I am so out of touch with reality shows.
or should that be…
“I am so out of touch with reality, it shows.” ?
eh.. either way…
I’m good.
Wow, so much speculation!
Fact is, Norm Chow is NOT, repeat, NOT attending the coaches convention in San Antonio.
Fact is, Norm Chow is NOT returning to Hawaii on Monday, January 9th.
These, my fellow bloggers, are the facts. The rest is purely speculation.
Can we all not be patient with all of this, it will work itself out.
gmen 10-2. couldn’t punch it in from the 5 yd line with 3 downs.
being patient and practicing it are 2 different worlds.
Okay I got a big question
Say we win the MWC championship…The winner usually goes to the Las Vegas bowl if they dont make it to a BCS game.. Would we accept an invitation to the Las Vegas bowl were we we know there is a good fan base vs a PAC12 team or do we stay in Hawaii and play CUSA teams?
PAULY D
If we were in the Sheraton Bowl the previous year, and the payout is big enough, we might opt for the Las Vegas Bowl, otherwise, Sheraton Bowl, it is.
Congrats to AB:

per ST’s header.
Unless, Versus has the last say.
looks like the birds are in for a long day
Glad that some of our players are getting an extra opportunity to strut their stuff and get noticed.
You made some decent points there. I looked on the internet for the issue and found most individuals will go along with with your website.
Who’s idea was it to have the 1st public meet & greet at the Hukilau? Not easily accessible to most folks, and the parking downtown SUCKS!…oh and btw, did I mention that the venue itself is smaller than my garage!
Why not have it in the Wong room at the SSC? $50 donation at the door. Lite lunch menu and stand-up cocktail tables to pack da place. All proceeds from parking (even $6 bucks beats $20 downtown) and the room, stays on campus.
I know…I know…NOW you tell me. Sheesh!
It’s a no-brainer…Of course you take the Las Vegas Bowl invite over a Sheraton Hawaii Bowl invite. We probably have a better attendance in Vegas anyways. I would go.

looks like this weekend in the nfl is “Not Good For Animals”. tigers, lions, falcons all got or are getting stomped. leaves only one animal left, but it doen’t look good cause the hardhats are favored.
kekoa, one of the biggest booster is host and owner of hukilau, so it makes sense. his place in san jose is the gathering place for warrior fans when da warriors play there.
kekoa, i don’t know, but maybe get “ballet” parking. hahahahahaaa

In case your wondering, the teams playing are US15 and Canada15

I know about hukilaus, everyone takes the fish; the net owner gets nothing.
But, bumbay erything get even….no hu hu
Good morning everyone!
Congrats to Aaron Brown!
my net get too much puka
gmen 24-2
hukilau, that’s one good tradition that has passed with time. it was a fun event and everyone shared not only fish, but friendship.
so far, not so kind to animals weekend. last hope that the horse can come through.
#52 we still get the huki
Even the Hukilau in SJ is a little *Pee-Toot* place Whitey, and no mo ballet parking.
I’m just say’n – let’s look at serving the fan base. These are the real supporters in the long run.
Shout out to our big island fisherman! Happy New Year braddah K-49!
We meet where we like
hukilau:
yea, as kids we had many of those at Lawai Beach, aka Atherton Estate, aka Kauai Botanical Garden and at Pohai Beach – both are inlets with sandy bottom.
surround net and catch moi, papio, oio – also, used to set crab nets for “watari” – whoa, beeeg kine – many over 12″ across.
we set crab nets in Lawai River and got some monster kine samoan crab – plus throw net for the mullet, papio and aholehole in the river.
I hope the Dungness crab in Alaska is over the “red tide” virus so can eat the miso!
Ok so we leave it to the Punahou Mafia…even that is a half step up from zero.
Howzit Tsaikos!
Congrats to Aaron Brown! Geevum!
Kekoa-sensei – ever tried to park on campus when school is in session? Not easy.
In Soviet Russia, you like where you meet.
Good luck to A. Brown!
I’m sorry, but that #56 post is one of the funniest I’ve ever seen here.
Howzit Uncle Kekoa! 😉
So the Eagles are out, but the Steelers are still in. I’d better get the beer chilled and the sammiches made. 🙂
Who said there’s no Punahou Mafia?
kawika49, you one lucky braddah. most of today’s generation will neva have the opportunity to know what it is like to pariticipate in a family tradition.

dpk, the animals getting stomped this weekend.
if you are in vegas, the favs are killing the bookies.
Thanks for the reminder JM. We paved paradise, and still no mo ’nuff.
The whole idea is to find a better venue to accomodate all the fans. Hmmm…all of a sudden the ole Tsaiko T-gate spot is looking purdy good. Plenny free parking. Much better (manuwahi) menu. Can’t beat the view. Room to run some quick routes…
this is a slo mo sunday and most are just laying back and enjoying the good golf and maui scenes on tv.
re-hash of our recruiting gone bad – don’t read, if you no like.

Speaking of fashion, I was watching CBS Sunday Morning today where they did a puff segment on college football uniforms, focusing mainly on the Oregon Ducks of course, but also had a “Queer Eye” fashion expert critiquing various teams’ uniforms, including the “Rainbow Warriors”. He didn’t care for the current UH unis as he thought the “tiki” patterns were too understated and the colors should be brighter (he seemed to prefer a lime green). One suggestion I thought that was intriguing was a “grass skirt” pattern on the pants. If Vili the Warrior can wear one at the games, maybe the players can get away with a patterned one on the pants? The CBS segment is at:
http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-3445_162-57354505/a-gridiron-fashion-statement/?tag=re1.galleries
The UH segment is at ~4:30 in if you don’t want to watch the whole thing.

he was thingkin rainbow; purple. yellow blue whatever

Fising not so good…gas cost more than fish. Experience on the open Ocean PRICELESS!
Steelers need to fast forward to halftime. The Broncos are pumped right now. Come on Steelers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Grass skirts… yikes! Full body Tapa… what is this guy thinking?
Is there anything more entertaining in the playoffs than a slo-mo of Tebow’s passes travelling thru the air?!?! 😆 😯 😉
#81 you gotta ask koa ma…whateveah
You telling me, those two little precious fruitcakes got airtime with their little (insert Notre Dame dance comment) remarks about football uniforms?
Little f******s.
NIce to be on again Kekoa…this was money time
.
What I like about Tebow is that is the different than the bland, bland regular quarterbacks you see in the NFL. Ryan, Eli, zzz.

Get chance fo good size Ahi if you know da GPS fo da hidden buoys. fly the plane, locate the private buoys, oddawize betta chance if you believe in TBow. 😆
okay
when i get to my phone at da office tomorrow.
Tan Man in 8 makes a good point about the pro set. You need pro players. Hawaii’s best results have been with unorthodox offensive schemes that make the most of unorthodox players. That is the big challenge for Chow.
krump1_AKA_protector: Howzit.
re: Your post # 203. January 8th, 2012 at 8:06 am
Take it easy Bud . I AIN’t advocating for Rolo to be fired.
All I’m saying is that if someone like NaMaSu offered an OC, HELL ain’t nuthin
wrong with taking that job, with the possibilties of coaching a pretty good QB; and having
complete control of HIS offense.
With the proper negotiating, terms ($$$) and conditions can be favorable.
The SERIOUS part: HELL anyone should leave the nest to learn more and gain more
experience, IF he WANTS to. Many young football coaches change jobs a lot.
No sked leave the nest. Big bucks $$$ await the successful ones.
If one wants to stay on the rock and have job security, thanks to HGEA/State Govt,
I have no problem with that either.
All is OK with me.
What’s a slow-mo Tebow throw without the right soundtrack?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_gwwRe42Fc&feature=related
ST,
Can you shed some light on the Rolo not retained rumors?
Nyuh,
I’m surprised you’re calling Eli boring this year. That kid has been the only reason the giants are in the playoffs…
so far this has been a vey good game. maybe the animals get chance, but get plenty time left.
kawika49, kind a far out to be laying a hukilau net???? hahahahahahaaa
still got my church clothes on….
😆
howzit whitey
the best times I had wit da nets wuz on Maui
da best spot wus right in front da Mariott
bhf2, now as one closed fishing zone and don’t know when they going open.
the horses got to stop the hardhats cause they moving the ball to easy. bhf2, need a miracle interception?????
uh oh. my religion is starting to waiver. 😆
maybe my kneeling is quite not right. oh left. or right.
😀
no miracles, but hardhats get 3
bhf2, wrong side got the miracle.
again the horses got to stampede the hardhats
What is the Downtown Athletic Club? Who’s behind it?
Why are we rooting for the hard hats?
bhf2, you still get chance.
mih, bhf2 is in his sunday best and praying for a miracle in denver for the horses.
A check of the business names – unless the State is behind in its paperwork – does not show that the Downtown Athletic Club is registered.
Should the Tsaikos grab the tradename? 🙂
in the 2 minute drill, the horses are not paying attention to the clock and 2 imcompletes helped the hardhats get the ball.
RE: The Downtown Athletic Club… apparently involves Kurt Osaki and Keith Amemiya, and someone we’ve all been waiting for to come to town…
Which is probably Norman Chow.. .
Maybe even Chad Ikei? Check this out..
Oh.. we’re rooting for the Broncos? ah… well, it’s a miracle they’re still in the game!… he want’s more miracles on top of that?
dang good game, ot
ok, da coin flip wuz rigged. 😀
mih, isn’t this what games are all about, the underdog biting back and knocking the top dog. this is why we watch games and why it generates more than interest, but got fans standing and cheering. isn’t this the same situration when da warriors play usc in september???
kden
I going church. 😆
Miracles still happen in Denver
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnowePU8npc&feature=related 😯
bhf2, ok, ok, ok, ok. now that is what the game is all about and the animals win one for the weekend. miracles, maybe, but more like playing 60 minutes and more. congrats to the horses.
bhf2, no porget, besides prayers you got to go get your ahi. lucky guy!!!!
okay.
d…d….d….Lord 😀
whiitey:
It’a not how long you make it
it’s how you make it lomg
We had a lotta nice fish coming up this year.
Happy New years to all the Tsaikos.
Standing down for 2 weeks for maintenance.
Congratulations to the horses. they are one magic show in itself.
kawika49, spoken like a true fisherman. win or lose, being out fishing is PRICELESS!!!!
I know this is the “Warrior Beat”, but , WOW! How ’bout Tim Tebow stepping up again!
I personally think it’s UNBELIEVABLE!
This weekend sucks! No UH football tidbits and the Steelers lost. It’s a good thing I’m sitting at home instead of somewhere near a cliff. No I wouldn’t jump, but I may push somebody off.
My luck, the guy I choose to push would be bigger than me and wouldn’t even budge. Then he’d kick my a__ for pushing him in the first place. Man, my weekend would suck even more then.
Guess I’ll have to wait for some UH football news to cheer me up sometime next week. We will here something by then, won’t we?
Go figure . . . Tebow wins the game in one play with his arm. Guess I should go to church more often.
130 should say “we would hear” not here
just shoot me already
Go Aaron Brown!
Is it the Camino del Sol game or the Casino del Sol game??? The first = Road of Gold, the second = Stephen’s wish… 😀
yeah…I think this blogpost was made very late in the night. Looks like anyway. No offence admin, probably you’re gonna remove this comment anyway 🙂

Heh.. underdogs… why? you think USC get chance next season? Oh yeah.. we stay on the road, das why…. 😉
WarriorNY: I know Manning is winning but that didn’t stop me from switching channels. Glad the Giants won though.
No dog in the fight and Tebow played a great game with heart and intensity, but with a healthy Roth, they probably lose this one. Looking forward to next weeks match ups.
Really tough game for Ike Taylor. Gave up too many big plays.
115. Sounds exciting! Great training and preparation for all kinds of athletes, but if it is connected to NFL prospects making it into the NFL and coach Chow can be a part of it, it may be a great thing for Hawaii football.
Tony is here in SA. I havent seen Rolo or any of the other previous coaches yet, but tomorrow is the biggest day and 1000’s more coaches are expected.
Nytal!
#8 & 93,
Note that West Coast and Pistol offenses used by Chow at UCLA wasn’t so good. Although some said he didn’t have a good offensive line and QB’s.
Nor was von Appen’s west coast offense.
Why haven’t the bankers been prosecuted-? The simple answer is that going after them would expose the politician-s who defended them. It would hurt the false narrative that has been created that blamed the crisis on corporate greed. As if companies only recently started caring about their bottom line. Companies are expected to care about their bottom line. Maintainin-g that bottom line means staying in business and continuing to employ people. Money is in politics because of the heavy handed interactio-n the government has with business. The government can literally make or break some companies which gives them an incentive to have political influence. As long as that incentive exists then so will the influence. The simple reason for that is that people are corruptibl-e. Ultimately regulation-s are only as powerful as those who are to enforce them. Many of those regulators are overseen by Congress.buy wow gold
rainbowfan,
Von Appen and Chow do not compare. Von Appen was a defensive coach looking for a West Coast OC. Chow is an Offensive Coach looking for a good Defensive Coach.
If Von Appen had Chow, it may have been a very different story.
CBSC’s A Game of Honor. Amazing!

1. I wish Rolo well – no shame ask for the kala; because …
2. I read on the NaMaSu blog that they just hired their new DC @ 100K.
3. Ai-yah; 100K for Rolo is WAY not enough.
ASK for the kala, Rolo – don’t sell yourself short.

Why is it this guy O’Brien gets the Penn state job and with in 2 days he names some big hires, 4 guys, very good experience, and we don’t hear a peep out here on the UH Staff? Are things going ok? Is NC striking out on some guys and therefore no news so that it does not look bad?
Hmm. This much silence can either be a good thing or bad thing. I will trust in who ever Chow gets, I trust his judgement. I think Chow wants to remain silent, rather than us hearing about a great qualified guy that Norm offered then hearing that the “paperwork got lost 3 times at Manoa so it did not work out”. Or hearing “we did not have enough money to pay him”. It must be all based on trying to avoid any embarrassment.
Just sayin… I bet Chow already has had a few obstacles in his way in the form of slow bureaucracy.
Well, hopefully we hear something by Wed, I thought I heard that recruits are coming in to visit next weekend. Please let there be permanent staff in place to greet players and parents. LOL
As long as he doesn’t stick that long list of names into his back pocket, I’ll be okay with the silence. Those things tend to disappear in back pockets at UH.
you could be wright.
or you could be wong.
imma guessin…
da pake is one tight lipped bugga… 😀

By permanent, I hope you don’t mean HGEA… They don’t budge.. they don’t move.. they don’t give.. they are stuck like glue. HGEA working hard for you.. (except on Holidays, Weekends, Furlough days… vacation days… power outage days… stormy days…and in locations where your vote don’t matter.)
madeinhawaii: LOL, I hear you, I just mean full time, Norm Chow Hires
Norm probably has been planning this for years, and if one part of the plan doesn’t pan out, move on to the next. Being around other programs, coaches, philosophies, he most likely formulated a way to construct a perfect system over the years should he be a head coach. And for someone like him, hes not going to do this just for his time here, he will work so that the next coaching regime can keep the continuity that he has laid before them, should we hire one of his assistants for head coach. He will give his best for Hawaii and do whats best for Hawaii. I’m sure when he hangs it up, he will have the most wins of any UH football coach when its all said and done and his legacy will be the dynasty he built and left behind…………….ok dinnah time!
Guys I don’t know if anyone remembers when I posted a rant about how unprofessional UHAD is by continuing to post Mac and his old staff up on the athletics website and not having Norm Chow up as the Head Coach. Well I think someone who works in the UHAD reads the ST blogs. The website was changed the next day. Maybe our voices are being heard…..Hmmmmm?
171. Wow, those are some lofty expectations. Dynasty? Best win loss record in history? Who will he have to beat, June Jones? I don’t know who it is. So if we do a little math, Norm will have to coach at least 9 to 10 years, reasonably speaking to take him to 75 years old or older. So Mistah, you are thinking Jopa.
Hopefully, Rolo can roll with bigger offers…
I’m hoping Miano still gets retained.
Bugaz, what about Lumpkin? Any hope?
btw, congrats to June Jones for his win over Pitt…
Love Lumpkin, especially his name…
rhymes with…
What would define a “perfect system” perfect means never making a mistake, every decision is the right one, doing everything to the best and never losing any games. Right?
Jumpin?

200 within reach fellow tsaikos. Go for it!
@mikesmith
Even though he may not win as much games as June Jones, it isn’t a sin to have positive optimism. My words are not boastful, i don’t see any thing wrong with it.
Recruits will probably be in on the 13th after the current dead period. Hurry up and replenish the toilet paper!
And far as the dynasty, i meant it in a way as he created a template for “consistent” success. From recruiting, to the playing field….not championship bcs busting year in and year out.
@MistahB84 nothing wrong with your optimism at all
I don’t mind NC not having a better record than JJ, just don’t lose to teams that end the season with 2,3,or 4 wins. But hoping he can take the program to the next level, maybe three consecutive top 25 seasons and cap it off with a Sugar Bowl win.
Thanks Bugaz, I knew it was coming soon. Lets hope we have a full time full staff. I am still hoping Aranda gets retained, LOL
Tebow-time extended . . . I’m just sayin . . . you better not snooze on Denver.
A man can dream.
Ipuman wow, what has come of us all, we are hoping for 200? Pathetic news weekend. LOL
Lol, the Broncos are my favorite team as well, but damn…Big Ben played a ballsy game. He is my favorite qb in the NFL….to play through a sore ankle and to run on it in the 4th qtr to buy some time takes guts. One of the best games of recent memory….
Heres a topic to get a few spamless posts…. where do you guys see our current warriors from the run and shoot playing in NC’s offense?
Or rather, if you could craft a starting skill position line up with our current players (no o-linemen) who do you have?
Did anyone ever say which recruit didn’t show up for the meeting of local prospects?
slenzi,
I believe,
Honestly I know Tebow has to work on some things but is he that bad? Shoot has anyone seen Tavaris Jackson play for the Seahawks this season? Everyone says Tebow can’t play QB in the NFL, Tavaris was more inept than Tebow. The only difference is Jackson does not give the Glory to Jesus Christ every time he speaks so people leave him alone. How sad is it that our society can glorify Pac Man Jones when he makes it Rain in the strip club and a guy gets shot and killed, no one picks at him daily like “why is he in the league?” But Tebow…Tebow comes along and everyone just wants to find fault in him, tear him down. This Tebow negativity is just an example of the Crab Mentality on a national level.
Hoping for 200?
Oh 200
Bugaz, you get em!
I am not negative of Tebow or his faith, just don’t see them getting past the next game. Good luck though! One for the feel good story.
If you plan on ging to the Hukilau for lunch, there is plenty of validated parking in the Executive Center. Just go down Bishop Street and turn right before the Starbucks into the garage. If you plan on going to this event which may or may not be on Wednesday. We will have confirmation tomorrow at 7am with all media outlets… I hope that folks can get behind the Downtown Athletic Club instead of criticizing it because these are people who want to help – we should all be in favor of that…
201!
Chris, is there Criticism of the Downtown Athletic Club?
Chris is it going to be like the New You Downtown Athletic Club? Where they hold the Heisman awards? How much does it cost to be a member and what are the benefits?
kev-1
I’ve been a Steeler fan since small kid time. Hard to see them lose today but I think Tomlin made a crucial mistake by continuing to play Roethlisberger except for the Ram’s game. Batch is a more than capable back up & Ben’s not being able to heal from the injury likely cost them the game.
So quiet. Usually you got a bunch of people who knows a guy that knows the sister of the father of a recruit in Maui or something saying he really wants to stay or go but his mother is encouraging him to go cause her boss’ friend and their pet doctor said this school has better pizza on Tuesday’s

Neva happen at UH, I wish it did, but no mo rich da kine who will give to the school. What about all the Univ. Of Hawaii Warriors that made it to the NFL, we never hear about them dropping a dime on the football program. Shoot, Suh donated 3 million to Nebraska football and another 2 million to the school library.
Ugh. Another week of having Saint Tebow shoved down my throat on ESPN and NFLN 24/7. Great.
2…4…6…8 who do we appreciate Tebow Tebow yay Tebow
Just kidding lol
mikesmith – saw something earlier taking a jab at them. I will have more details on Wednesday. I reallly can’t say anything else until then. Thanks for understanding.
Based on the author, I will recover the worthiness to make each inside of a couple of months. That sounds great, especially when using rising costs of an electrical current currently.
Mike: I read somewhere that Utah has one of the highest number of millionaires on a per capita basis. Along those lines, so does Hawaii, but it’s sad that UH is the only game in town, but doesn’t attract such donors, whereas Utah State has to compete with Utah and BYU. It’s not like USU is a school of “rich kids” either. I think that UH needs to revamp its fund raising strategy in order to connect with those in the community who have the potential to contribute to the school’s athletic department, much like Mr. Shidler does to the UH Business College. Just my 2 cents.
#203 Chris – the Reg Agency database does not show any registering or reservation of the name Downtown Athletic Club. Suggest your legal beagle might look into it – or perhaps the State hasn’t gotten around to update its database
207 . . . I completely agree. This should have been Ben’s first game back after weeks of rest. Instead, he never got to heal his ankle, and high ankle sprains are tough for QB’s to overcome.
Still, the defensive overplayed the run too often and payed for it.
#162 Mikesmith: Re Penn State’s rapid hiring of Assistants
Though I speak with the voices of angels, without money, I am nothing.
There may be a heck of a lot of good people out there but $$$ talks.
re. # 160 “Look at the price of housing in Las Cruces, much less than in Hawaii.”
Seriously – never mind comparing the housing prices.
If you’re qualified for the OC job, AND you are GOOD, you ASK for the kala –
DON’t sell yourself short.
Further, it might have posted here also, that namasu’s HC got extended at 400+K.
If THAT HC is worth 400+K, then a GOOD OC is worth more than 100K.
Repeat: DON’t sell yourself short. DON’t sell yourself short. DON’t sell yourself short.
If i was rich, i would put down a down payment to start funding for a new stadium…. or if i was married to Oprah………
Tommui, I agree, I guess Norm has to take his time. Penn State is not the only school that had to fill a staff, a lot of the other schools with new HCs have been rolling with their hires. It does help in recruiting, kids and their parents want to build a relationship with the position coach too, not just the HC.
Well MistahB84, if you gamble, I hope you hit it big, or marry Oprah! Please please we need a new stadium. Lol
Mike Smith – Ashley Lelie did give back to his initial roots and dropped a dime to procure a new Football scoreboard for his Alumni, Radford.
Wonder if there were some coaches that said “if you become HC I will coach for you”, but not following through now that he has the chance…but it’s UH
I sure hope not!!!
Mark, that was cool, scoreboard for his High school team. I hear you, but did any warriors make millions in the NFL? Can any of them start a campaign to upgrade football facilities at UH? Give back a little?

” Hopefully, Rolo can roll with bigger offers… ”
I AGREE.
If fact, Rolo is GOOD; he should be able to get much bigger offers.
Rolo, if he hasn’t already, should have a professional hiring agency prepare
a whiz-bang video, showing his bio, and examples of his team’s performance.
He can then send this video out to help him secure interviews.
Bottom line: DON’T sell yourself short.
Good Luck, Rolo.
Bugaz 226. could be the case, if they are really good, they probably have an offer at a BCS school or the NFL. If they are really good and have a great resume, they will look to get a gig with a bigger upside first, then say to Chow, “yeah I’m in” if they don’t have a chair to sit in when the music stops.
Maybe Norm is waiting for the music to stop, in the musical chair game of coaching, then he will see what quality guys are left over and offer them a chance for employment.
Lol, seriously though…. its really intriguing that the mere uttering of a new stadium and the topic spreads like wild fire. My idea of a new stadium for UH should start of with 2 sides both 20,000 seats each. Then luxury/coaches box on both sides right above it. Next, an upper deck above both sides with 5,000 seats each (though no upper seats for the 1st few years then expand afterward) Then at both end zones 1000-3000 seats with a large scoreboard over both sides. High quality speakers included. Last but not least, a retractable roof…but not a necessity. As for location….i’ll leave it up to someone else.

I would figure though, you don’t let go employees without having someone lined up to fill the spot right.
231 & 235 – 2X post – dunno wha hoppened.
For you folks who haven’t been to the Hukilau I think you’re in for a pleasant surprise. It is a much better venue than it is getting credit for on the “Beat” and will previal for Wednesday’s luncheon!
# 230 – Got it !!!
I hope he not waiting til after! We’ll hear about his staff this week.
It would suck to have Rolo coach at a rival school in our conference, but then again…we would have great insight to his play calling lol.

” Note that West Coast and Pistol offenses used by Chow at UCLA wasn’t so good. Although some said he didn’t have a good offensive line and QB’s. ”
The Pistol was installed by slickRick, not Norm Chow.
slickRick hired the Nevada QB coach to install it – guess everyone knows the results,
or lack therof.
228 – mikesmith
Mike, you hit the nail right on the head with your feedback. Hopefully Ashley and other former Football Bows and Warriors will read our comments and begin contributing to the University of Hawaii Football Program.
Some Tsai-kos have been to the Hukilau before. Photo archives in 2007 shows these Tsai-kos at Hukilau Honolulu for the UH-Idaho road game on TV: A-House, (J)James, Jason, Midori7, and Stretch.
As I recall, there was major function held there that season, but that venue seemed to fade from view…as compared to Murphy’s Bar & Grill.
SteveM ~
Too late to change the location. Just not my choice.
Even Murphy’s not the best, but he at least takes advantage of the side street. His fund raisers have provided over a million dollars to the UH.
He always has been an ardent supporter of the university.
I know a few years ago, the UH did not keep in touch with former athletes after they left. Maybe that is why they don’t donate to the school. A few do though, like Anthony Carter, and Ashley. Out of sight, out of mind. I hope UH fixed that problem. Seems like they have made an attempt with all the reunions.
DON WEIR has been doing a lot of spadework getting the UH athletes alumni together, locating them etc since he took over the Lettermen’s Club.

#242,
Thank you for that.
The pistol is NOT the West Coast or some Pro-Style offense. It was without doubt something Rick wanted to install at UCLA.
Norm Chow never made an excuse about how it’s Rick’s idea and not his etc.

Thanks a ton to bing that afforded me this ability to arrive across your website. The following is one of those posts that need to be bookmarked and distributed with other folks and this is what i’m going to do at least on my facebook itself wall for sure. With thanks again mate for making my day. You can expect me to keep coming back. Bye.
Excellent article, I definitely love this site, Cheers 🙂
Less than a month ago most of us were willing for a change of scenery at the top.
When it happened, most of us were elated to land a top notch guy like Coach Chow.
So he’s taking his time, thinking things through, major lack of hype. So what? Thats all good as far as I’m concerned.
Tim Teblow taught me to pray. again. whats wrong with that? if John Elway can jump up and down, so can I. gotta admit though. Champ sure fired him up after last week’s loss and backdoorin into yesterday’s game. Good for Denver.
I personally like Roth and his Adjustment Bureau look. 😀
But I don’t like Santorum, former Pa 18th District (Pitt) Congressman.
just sayin… 😀
Coach Chow
“widely considered one of the best offensive minds in the country”
I believe Coach. I believe.
Nice post how long i should wait for next one?
Just saying…
If I was a football player being recruited by a PAC 12 team, getting good writeups and stuffs, and then
Coach Chow comes along, and says stuff but there is not a whisper on the breeze,
I’d have to be saying to myself…. this guy is different, very very different.
Good Monday, all!
Early meeting today.
Dang.
Last one.
Go coaches and create the Warriors of your vision!
Forgot to congratulate the Campbell HS cheerleaders!
‘Attaway!!!
You’ve got a academic way of writing which I don’t frequently see. Just thought I’d point that out 🙂
And, congratulations to Tuioti.
Best wishes to Rolo!
And, now, out the door.
Good morning! Congrats to TT and thanks to Rolo. Good luck to both in their future careers.
