#52 Old School Dave: There was a time when Hawaii was cleaning up here in Los Angeles for recruits as Poly, San Fernando, Compton High, Crenshaw, Venice, Verbum Dei, Dorsey, Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica High was sending superior athletes to become outstanding rainbow warriors. Over the course of time recruiting philosophy has changed and focus has been to have more local players on the team as oppose to mainland players. The results has shown when UH plays against athletes they look over match in the areas of speed, strength and quickness. Washington will prove my point as their roster has those players from the above schools which will leave you with one option that coaching will make the difference.

I understand how every new administrator believes that everything needs to be changed. But there are many good things in place at UH. To assume, unilaterally, that everything old is bad is misguided and egocentric. As the kids’ song goes: “Make new friends but keep the old, one is silver, the other is gold …”

I’d like to see more players from Long Beach Poly once again. UH had a lot of success with players from there back in the day. Same with players from the Pacific NW and Canada.

#29 Mr. A-House Sir, thank you and Mrs A-House for your countless efforts creating the rock garden. While progress is an on going thing with UH and your humility of accepting AD Ben Jay renovation to “so call” better the athletic complex is admirable on your part, I as a former athlete from the golden era “DO NOT” share those feelings with the administration today or coaches who are willing to change tradition and honor with their own vision of how each athletic team recruits, take away traditional honor awards to their present players and lack of respect to former players.

I firmly believe that UH lacks the compassion to it’s TRADITION of athletes during the early years in which many players have distant themselves from the program because of their own regressions and not taking advantage to the free education they received as a scholarship student athlete for their respective sport that they gave every single ounce of desire and heart playing as a rainbow warrior. This attitude or lack there of is really no excuse but when you have an athletic department that continues to value money over sweat, hard work and tears wearing the green and white it only leaves an empty value ever playing for UH and a continue separation that is visible today with former athletes of past and present generations.

In conclusion sounding as a broken record I can only speak for myself knowing why I support UH with volunteer efforts too upper campus who appreciates the dedication and sincerity aiding it’s needs not so much financially but adding incoming students that I recruit personally to attend Manoa as I whole heartily believe that the education received from UH is by far on a higher superior level then any University or College around the country can even offer or come close. It is a respect from my educational peers and alumnus that I feel appreciated as oppose to my athletic years in which nothing but a standard letter from Ben Jay present AD wanting money from me in support to their budget woes nothing more and nothing less.

To this date I have recruited 744 Los Angeles students from various College high school and junior college fairs filling out interest cards to attend the University Of Hawaii. My goal is to reach 1,000 as I will accomplish that coming this fall. I pray that I can continue to represent the 808 with pride, dignity and respect in which the many fans, former professors and friends gave too me unconditionally when I attended the University back in 1976-81. Hope to see you and Mrs. A House in San Diego where we can laugh and toast to our dedication for the cause as “ROCKS” we shall always be !
