Just wanted to be 1st!

Aloha Kakahiaka…Congratulations Greg, Alex and Mana !

Good morning!

Curfews? I don’t like them…but it works great on kids!

HI LOA!

I’m a little worried with the lack of practices. Please Mack & Co. have the boys prepared and ready to go against Tulsa. This game is crucial for a lot of reasons! Please don’t take Tulsa lightly!

Good luck on your finals Warriors! Hurry up so you can get down to business!

Go Warriors!

Top 15.

Is Mack a procrastinator?? He knows he has 21 days to get in 15 practices. He chooses to cut the number of practices down to 9 in 11 days. Now he cancels 2 practices due to finals. How can he not know that the players had finals?? He is down to 7 practices and it’s not even the full team for a day or two. If the rains come like is forecasted later in the week, they lose out more field time. Once they check into the hotel, practices are not going to be the same. He is losing out on valuable preparation time for Tulsa, and more importantly what all the coaches love to say, “time to get the young guys ready for next season.”

I don’t want to second guess the coaches decisions, but this really scares me. I don’t care what Mack says to the public, they better not be taking Tulsa lightly. All the team’s accomplishments this past season will be forgotten if they get embarrassed on national tv.

Stretch get a life. Academics come first and the coaches have it under control unless you follow them and attend all their meetings and planning sessions. Coach Mack would be BS if he did not back up his word concerning academics to his players. There are more important things in life to be concerned with than Tulsa. The players know what the deal is and the players are prepared.

They can’t hold a night practice? Or early morning? I am a stickler for academics too, but I too am a bit concerned over missed practice time.

BIK

BEAT TULSA

nuff said.

#15 – Take it easy…. This has nothing to do with academics. I think Mack could have planned out the practice time better. And my main point was All the team’s accomplishments this past season will be forgotten if they get embarrassed on national tv. Trust me, I hope I am wrong, but you can’t fault me for being worried. I don’t think I am alone.

Help me Obi-wan kanobi…I’m having trouble tweeting our blog. Keep getting error messages. This has been going on for several days. Is it my computer?

Choosier-could be your connection

Oldtimer808 & Bighilofan2 !

Mahalo for the CONFIDENCE !

Can’t BELIEVE the IMPORTANCE of this game that Coaches of Hawaii

are not PREPARED !

Academics and Finals are IMPORTANT but when ALL said and done TEAM

comes READY as I don’t want to see a BLOW OUT on National TV or even

a LOST !

Imua Warriors !

okay Coach. I know you listen. I know you got our best interests at heart. I know you got the Warriors’ best interests at heart, individually. yes I know that. yes I do.

Stretch is right. Our fearless leader (dat be you) must man up and give us da confidence to BELIEVE that you’ve got it all under control.

I going remind Stretch of the way the players believe in you and the other coaches, and the other coaches are acting like they’re showing you alot of respect.

so keep it going, coach. Walk da talk. “We’re gonna kick dare a$$.” wen you talk like dat, and act like dats wat we’re gonna do, den fo me all is well in Warrior Nation.

stop cutting classes, coach. stop cutting class.

make your own handmade report card an show me all A.

Confidence, coach, confidence.

see you all this evening.

Have a nice day Tsaikos.

Go Warriors.

esme wooshhh….

There is also such a thing as over-training.

At this point in the season…

BELIEVE, Warrior fans…

Speculation Criticism over the unknown is poison.

Chopsuey- I just retweeted.

Congrats, Wahine!

Thanks, extreme!

#30, I don’t know what to say. That Hawaii Bowl Notre Dame team with a 6-6 win loss record was even thinking not going to a bowl game if invited, but coach weis and players overwhelmingly voted to go. Notre Dame pride usually prevents them from accepting a bowl bid with a mediocre record. I think then coach Weis was thinking more about recruiting Mantai Teo. That was a mediocre Irish team and Hawaii wasn’t better prepared for them. This Tulsa team won its last 6 games and is no overrated team. They are for real. Forget they were once a WAC member. This is a strong team, maybe the strongest UH faced this year with the exception of Boise State. I would say USC but USC was beatable if Hawaii kept its composure. Colorado loss was a abberation. They should have beat Colorado.

Good morning!

Be positive…think winning…I know the team is…They ARE students and once they get finals out of the way, they will be putting 110% of their attention on the game. But they need to pass their finals to keep playing. Failing class = NO Playing time…

So, calm down, and as LizKauai says, send positive prayers and thoughts their way.

K, I’m late to practice…gotta go… 🙂

#35 Liz – there is no such thing in footabll, you can never get too much practice, just as Bess did with the jugs, to get better you keep doing it over and over.

GOOD MORNING HAWAII!

Warriors – pass your tests – both academically and on the field!

I going Tell Ma!

I’m positive don’t get me wrong. I believe classes come first and passing your grades. A college degree is more important. You can’t play football all your life. But a college degree will help get you a good job in these economic bad times. I believe these players are too smart and too classy to let this one slip. But just before going to battle in Vietnam many times, one can’t help worry. As Audie Murphy said many times (the most decorated soldier of ww2) “anyone who says he ain’t scared going into battle is a liar, I’m scared all the time”. I’m a human being with human frailties. I couldn’t help worrying going to battle in Vietnam and I can’t help worrying our UH Warriors versus Tulsa. I would be a liar. But I got all the confidence our players are smart enough not to get ambushed by Tulsa. Our coaches are smart enough to prepare them well.

Cool…Calm…Confident.

Senior Warriors lead the way. Take this team on your shoulders one last time before graduation. Make them understand what it takes to be a wiinner.

Push, push, push! Drive, drive, drive! Make every play better than the last. THINK about what’s going on around you. Heads up and on a swivel. You guys all know the drill. Own the field!

This is your house…Protect it!

did I spell, “comitted” wrong?

Congrats to Kanani, Brittany & Dani!

I’m with stretch. I have human frailities and am worried. I mentioned it several blogs back where my biggest concern was not being ready for a BIG televised game.

Yes they need to do well in the classroom but there can be, in my opinion, and maybe its being done, time for individuals to get ready physically.

We’ve seen how gassed our boys got when people ran the no huddle, “Oregon offense” against us. We know that Tulsa runs a very fast no huddle offense.

So, that being said, have our leaders (coaches and seniors) taken it upon themselves to prepare the team for this. I mean, in between studying for finals, are the guys doing extensive cardio work, winds sprints, gassers and the like to prepare for what’s coming?

Believe me, a few days of running will not prepare anyone for the physically taxing experiene of what an efficient hurry up offense can do (saw California when they played Oregon and our local boy got “hurt”).

If someone told me that this was going on in the interim, I may be less worried. But not hearing anything, has me, like stretch, worried. If a hurry up gets the better of a team, it can get real ugly real quick and it just does not get better over the course of the game.

Just win baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What’s more embarrassing than losing to Tulsa? Bombing a final because you weren’t given enough time to study. These STUDENT-athletes need to focus on schoolwork first, football second. How many of them will rely on football for income post college? 1%? 2%? I love the Warriors, but if they win against Tulsa and players fail in school…that’s a losing proposition to me. Whatever Coach Mack needs to do to balance their academics with getting ready for the game, I’ll let him decide. You think you know better, then apply for the job next time around. Or go down to campus and ask Coach Mack yourself in person. Don’t chicken crap it on a blog.

# 57 – Buffoman – “Believe me, a few days of running will not prepare anyone for the physically taxing experiene of what an efficient hurry up offense can do”

Agree 100%

Remeber during JJ Era, Timmy Chang had an Incomplete in class assignment and wasn’t suppose to play in Hawaii Bowl? If NCAA heard of this it will be ‘BUSH Case’ all over the place.

Please ‘Warriors’ complete your studies first, your classes is the first priority and the reason you’re enrolled in school at UH.

Coaches know what they’re doing that’s how they got to this point.

Rest of us Relax and Enjoy the Holiday’s and the Game!

Okole Maluna! and Go Warriors!

It will be a busy week for all of us with Diamond Head Classic and Hawaii Bowl.

I’m taking a vacation for the week! and enjoy the holiday and the GAME!

I posted late yesterday but…

ESPN BOWL Mania Show picked UH – Tulsa Game as No. ONE most confident game of all the Bowl game for UH to WIN over Tulsa.

So, you Betters here’s your chance to recoup your losses for the year!

But Don’t bet On it… you might jinx it… lol

Players play, fans cheer.

Wishing doesnt produce timing and execution on the field–practice and abundant repetition does.

Less than 8-practice sessions in 21 days is not a positive sign to invoke confidence….

perhaps, arrogance. Even those eight-practices will not be at full tilt. Meanwhile, Tulsa has been banging away at practice like the season never ended.

We were casual in our ‘ 07 Sugar Bowl approach despite being underdogs and distracted in ’08 against ND.

Tulsa is a better team than Fresno State and close to Nevada in effect. This team beat ND who turned around to defeat Utah, Army and USC.

Tulsa finished the season with a six-game win streak, including four-teams that are headed for post-season bowls. The last arrogant WAC team to go into the Hawaii Bowl against a CUSA team got smacked down. Yeah…there is mucho cause to be concerned…

Pomai: they have been doing both all season??? Yes, Yes, and Yes…

But the reality is some don’t and need extra help like most of us.

The Coach knows some of the starter need extra study days more than practice on the field.

Trust them and Cheer for them to do well.

That’s all we can do…

68#:Thats true they have been doing this all season but finals are a different beast to prepare for cause now you need to remember everything you’ve learned from the start of the semester to the end of the semester…One thing people aren’t mentioning is we’ve had trouble against no-huddle offenses on the road….Tulsa comes into Aloha Stadium we’ll see how long their no-huddle last when it’s mid afternoon on a hot sunny christmas eve day add in the humidity I expect to see alot of Tulsa players cramping up throughout the game…

Out of everything, football is the least of the priorities.

#76, I think you got that right. Hawaii, it would be more to build a 90 thousand plus stadium. Not even a billion would make it. I just hope the Halawa one holds up, till some entrepreneur generous enough to dish out the moolah.

Rupert #70

Put the new stadium in Diamond head, have two entrances/exits on Kapiolani Park side, one on the Kapahulu side, One one the lookout side and one where the current one is.

Believe me there is a lot of non studying going on right now also…….

Rupert- I like the new stadium idea. Then we can watch the games from Slugger’s house…. Bwahahahaha!

btw, Stretch, you should go Tell Ma!

Who is Thor Salanoa???

Signed his letter of intent today from Snow college to play for hawaii. His stats arent spectacular tho

90…Inside the crater, get plenny enuf land, people living in kaimuki can come stright up through fort ruger, kapahulu people through kapahulu side. shuttle in from Ala Wai Golf course. and of course just walk from the zoo side. No can get lost if you tourist, just point them to Alaihi!

morning yu’all have a good hump day in the 808

I must agree with stretch. Very concerned about the preparation the team is taking twords the game against tulsa. I hope the warriors don’t get embarrassed on national tv. Just would like to see a good warrior win. nuff said

#90 Rupert, we already own the land, and can sell the site (or JV with purchaser) in Halawa for funding portions of the new stadium.

Thor originally signed with Utah… before going to Snow College.

what concerns me is that remember the sugar bowl?

it seems that we got caught up in the fame and glory of it all. reports out of new orleans from many a little birdie were that they were concerned that we were not focused on the task at hand, but, rather enjoying the fun and action.

stretch is right. we should have been able to had a better plan so that we could have practiced in between the class schedules, even if in half pads or something for short periods would have been fine just to keep the skills honed.

HIGH SCHOOL: Honorable mention all-state in 2006 … first-team all-star … Radford High School (Hawaii) team captain … Radford won the 2006 OIA White championship … also lettered in track … made the honor roll all four years.

PERSONAL: Son of Thor and June Iagi Salanoa … father played football for BYU … two brothers and a sister … younger brother is autistic … has not declared a major …last name is pronounced sal-a-no-a … full name is Thor Eric Salanoa … born Feb. 7, 1989.

Deferred enrollment from 2007 to 2008 and red-shirted in 2008. Looks like he will have 2 to play 2.

haha…sorry stretch.

i was just making fun…because many insert iph4, ipad, etc on their blog names. my spoof on that.

ibm 5100 i think was the first consumer built pc back in the old days. of course no one could afford it.

sorry i’ll take it off.

Reno plays their bowl game on Jan. 9

Reno has finals this week.

Reno practiced yesterday.

Reno is excited about their bowl game.

On Jan. 9 at San Francisco’s AT&T Park, the 13th-ranked and 12-1 Wolf Pack will meet Atlantic Coast Conference power Boston College in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl. Interest in the bowl game has surged through the community. Nevada sold 15,369 tickets to the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl in the first five days tickets were available.

1. We could have practiced 110 times and still would have lost to Notre Dame. It was an athletic mismatch.

2. Tulsa does not present the same physical mismatch like Notre Dame presented two years ago.

3. I am also concerned about the missed practices.

4. School comes first, while it is true practices can be conducted at night my son is also taking finals as we speak and is studying all night.

5. I have confidence in the coaching staff and the players.

6. Half of all the teams playing during the bowl season will lose.

7. Go Warriors!

Good morning everyone!

Finals being a week before the Hawaii Bowl has always cut it close. One year it was said the final grades wouldn’t be ready in time and the whole team isn’t “certified” to play (that took some intervention). 😐

But Slugger is right. No pass = no play. Fail one course and maybe you don’t have enough credits to play on the team. Do poorly on the finals and maybe your grade point average is unsat. This applies to the whole team. Can’t even accompany the team to bowl activities even though you don’t suit up.

Scary time when you can lose a player to academics more than injury. I hope players are not that marginal but only Mack would know. This isn’t necessarily related to “graduation rate” — this is player eligibility to play next week in the Hawaii Bowl.

But yes, I wish the team could have more practices together.

#110,

It’s still a game. Not like you’re going to Afghanistan.

***OFF TOPIC***

HawaiianTime,

With regards to possibly purchasing a Droid X…

I live and breathe on mine. If you have held one in your hands, you’ll find that it is not as big as some may lead you to believe. Yes, the 4.3 inch screen is the largest in the market, but they’ve made the phone easy to hold. The only thing is trying to reach an icon on the screen if you are using one hand.

Right now, Droid users just received a new Android 2.3 OS update. It is not the fabled “Gingerbread” 3.0 update set to be released in the 4th quarter of this year, but it’s a minor update as some users were experiencing time stamp issues with text messages and this update supposedly fixes it amongst other things. I never experienced issues.

Overall it’s argueably the BEST Android phone on the market. You’ll find a lot of people love their HTC Incredible, which is essentially a smaller version of the X. The Droid X is comparable to the HTC EVO and shouldn’t be compared to the iPhone 4. Also, you may want to decide ahead of time if you want your Droid X to function as a 3G mobile hotspot. I opted for this option in my plan and barely use it. Although I did a test run at the office and sure enough, I was able to have FIVE different devices feed through my phone successfully. Sucked my battery though!

Battery life on phone calls is actually excellent. However, checking emails, texting, and web browsing is what kills your battery and may only give it a day’s worth of power, so do not be surprised if you will have to be charging your X every night.

***One app you will find useful is the “SystemPanel Lite”. It’s Android’s best app killer. Android is such a new OS that it still cannot successfully kill/turn off your apps and allows them to run constantly adding to the drainage of your battery. It’s a free app and you can manage which apps you want to keep running and which ones you want to shut down at the end of the day.

Another simple app you may enjoy is the “AudioManager” app. Now, the only thing this app does is essentially it serves as a shot of steroids to the various volume controls on your phone. Basically, if you have your ringtone set at it’s highest volume, this app will make it even louder. I use music as my ringtone and sometimes it’s not loud enough.

You will also enjoy seeing where your Droid X stands in compairison to other Android Devices so you will probably enjoy the “Quadrant” app. It will run benchmark tests on your phone and at the end it will show you where your phone stands in terms of performance to other phones like T-Mobile’s G2, HTC EVO, etc…

Technically speaking, the iPhone 4 is the best device constructed on the market, but it’s BIGGEST downfall is quite frankly the network that supports it. Also, their app market is NOT open source. You will be able to find a more diverse blend of applications in the Android Market.

Keep in mind that Verizon is in the midst, or should be done, with preparing their network for the introduction of the iPhone to their stock. Probably in January. Verizon is not about to let the dropped calls and choppy reception of the past iPhone users to become a staple on their network, so… you MAY want to wait.

Personally speaking, if you’ve never owned a Droid, then you haven’t experienced the convienence of the multiple home screens in which you can organize your apps and materials. The Droid X has 7 home screens.

I think this is the biggest appeal for smartphone owners. The ability to customize your screens through the usage of countless widgets for thousands of apps is something Android has done very well.

In the end, the Droid X will essentially be as useful as you want it to be. Some people don’t like how big it is. But it is the best Android phone on the market for a combination of reasons:

-VZW Network

-Operates on the latest version of the Android OS. Older Droid phone may not be subject to further updates.

-1 gHz processor

-call quality.

Downfalls:

-battery life

-no front facing camera

-no video chat unlike iPhone 4, BUT you are reliant on a WiFi hotspot with them anyway…

-2nd best resolution to screen and photo quality to the iPhone 4.

WAIT!!!

We got a signed LOI from a guy named “THOR”??? 😯

OMFG… —- is about to get real.

It’s just a game…..but it will be a useful tool to get the program some recognition. No matter what the outcome the Warriors will be spotlighted. To some kids, playing the game is more important to others the academics is just as important. Hopefully we get the latter. Those kids have good heads and priorities in place.

No worry Coach Mac get em unda control…

Stretch #13 . . . I agree. This is not the first time Hawaii has been in a bowl game, but this is the first time that practices have been put off and cancelled at this rate. I’m starting to get worried too.

Oldtimer808 #15 . . . I don’t think Stretch is saying academics doesn’t matter, and neither am I. There are different ways to structure/schedule practices around finals. Shorten them, change the time, etc. But to cancel so many? Don’t forget, there are kids getting a “free” education to be an athlete. So balancing both is part of the deal. I think that academics comes first, but they can also coexist.

Btw, I don’t think it’s necessary to tell Stretch to “get a life.” He is just voicing his opinion. Sometimes it seems that there are too many people that want to give their opinions but refuse to hear or accept others’ opinions. That is not right. Everyone here should be able to voice their thoughts (as long as they are appropriate) without being told to “get a life” or to be called “stupid” as I have been in the past.

al….there will be more “hugest games” yet to come…..”IN MAC I TRUST”…come hell or high water…?

Bet careful telling Stretch to “get a life.” The life he “gets” might be your own. Nyahahhaaaarrr!

!122…Kazz..just saw a ABC news reoort the odda night about this…they interviewed a dude who did papers for medical students and all kinds of kids for finals…what a spooky report! He made a living doing this and the profs. had a hard time finding the fake papers.

I can’t get over the name.

THOR…

Jeez… the first guy he hits is going to die.

Mr. kev-1,

If your name is Steve then you are stupid. If not, then you are as smart as the rest of everyone here…Yes, Steve is the stupid volleyball expert. And you all know what Steve I’m talking about. BTW Steve, did you congratulate Dani on her AVCA honorable mention?

Now, Now …NCAA….we all guud over here..no need to get me to tink about dat dude..

Two other teams with different approaches to their bowl game.

Utah will hold 14 bowl practices, including four during the week of the Boise State-Utah State game. Utah was off that week.

The Utes will practice 10 times to Boise State’s six after the announcement that the two teams would play in Las Vegas. The big difference is that Utah is practicing six times this week, which is finals week. Boise State is taking Monday-Wednesday off.

Coach Chris Petersen knew the Broncos would be limited in their preparation for the Las Vegas game when they lobbied for it, but he doesn’t mind. Bowl practices long have been considered a chance to begin molding the next year’s team.

“I’ve gone different than a lot of people think — I worry about burning our guys out too much,” Petersen said. “We’re going to get spring ball. They’ll come back after Christmas break and hit the weight room. The kids throw on their own. I worry about the opposite effect.”

#129- Thor, like Hercules and Samson, has a nice ring to it. Any documentation?

Hey, HawaiianTime! Howzit!?!

It was reported previously that our boyz missed about 20 school days due to travel this year. They gotta make up their classwork and pass these finals, otherwise they could end up not playing at all.

If you guys recall… way back in maybe 2002, UH got fined like $5k for letting Timmy Chang play while he was ineligible.

The following year, we had WAC Defensive Player of the Year Travis Laboy who ended up being ineligible for our Bowl Game against Houston (yeah, the one with “Da Brawl” when it ended), for not meeting the minimum amount of credits per semester.

Go, Warriors! Take care of business!

Sorry, I know I said I wasn’t going research that kine stuff but… 😳

I guess I should restate my opinion – it’s not the practice parse, it’s more the conditioning aspect that I worry about, by now the players can run the offense with just few days practice, but with a lag in conditioning it is harder to get back into game shape.

On another note:

The Senate overwhelmingly passed a $858 billion tax package. 😯 😯

That’s a lot of bucks!

Doesn’t look like Thor played for Snow College, though. He wasn’t on their roster.

Is this the same Thor?

http://www.njcaa.org/colleges_college_stats.cfm?sid=11&divid=0&slid=5&seasonselect=505&collegeid=1250&report_id=3401&requesttimeout=500

al:

no forget – I misplaced your “papers” – can you give me new set?

NCAA… looks like the same Thor.. so how come I couldn’t find his name on the Snow College roster… maybe the “search” function doesn’t work on the page, eh?

Nike is so generous to the well-to-do programs…

Too bad they were only willing to give UH “table scraps” while Under Armour came along and bought UH “dinner and a movie”.

Eh. We got the better deal for us anyway.

http://www.snowbadgers.com/football/roster.shtml

Still don’t see his name on their 2010 roster. I see two players from Hawaii though..

Paul Beltford (Kapolei) and Niko Uti (Kapolei)

NCAA

Ah~! Those are cummulative stats.. so maybe he played a previous year.. but not this past year. Wonder if he went on a mission?

Never mind.. Looks like Thor suffered a broken scapula (shoulder blade) before the 2009 school year at Utah… So, he may have played the last 7 games for Snow College in 2009.

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/705324179/Utah-Utes-football-Lacy-making-transition-from-O-to-D.html

Hercules, Samson, and Thor …. Hawaii.. home of the legends…

http://www.samoaobserver.ws/index.php?view=article&id=16093:niumatalolo-falls-short&option=com_content&Itemid=56

Sorry link for the above source.

Can someone try to excite me about this new recruit besides his name being Thor?

12 tackles in 7 games with 1 for loss just doesn’t impress me.

Just because he once was signed by Utah doesn’t make me feel like this was a big pick up

#146… Kazz… yeah, seems like UH gets dinged for everything, while BCS schools can get away with everything! Like, didn’t we get stripped of a Men’s Volleyball Championship because of another ineligible player? Plus, I think we paid a fine on top of that too.

Here’s what I found on LaBoy missing that bowl game… http://archives.starbulletin.com/2003/12/20/sports/index4.html

#165… MIH… aren’t those great football names? Almost gotta plan ahead if you want kids growing up to play certain sports. Starts with the name!

Hiyo, hiyo!

Great energy at practice. Receivers catching balls & it was great to hear Coach Mouse cuz I learn things. There were some starters missing from practice because of finals.

Hope T. Bell’s ankle is ok. He’s not playing this season, but he was limping after a one-on-one drill. Love watching the redshirts. It’s going to be exciting to see them in the game next year.

I’m going to miss the Seniors! and those who are not going to be playing next season.

Mari might come to our T-Gate. ST knows who she is…let you know at the T-Gate.

As one of this blogs most vocal critic regarding McMackin and some of his decision making in the previous 2 seasons, I believe that he is performing a fine balancing act regarding his student athletes during this finals week and week leading up to the bowl game.

With that said, the coaches and players are fully aware of what is at stake regarding this game because they’ve stated it on numerous occasions in interviews during the course of the season that EACH game was the most important game. Tulsa is no exception. The team has made it their mission to prove to some of us harsh critics from the previous seasons wrong. After the disappointing outcome at Colorado, they’ve done fairly well each week in crafting a gameplan and executing it on the field (the BSU game was an exception but BSU played that game at an extremely high level and shut UH down). They’ve stated they have not had the best success in recent national television appearances and so that aspect is going to be on everyones mind. So it is a fine balancing act of coaches working on the gameplan, the athletes focusing on getting their final exams out of the way, and then everyone putting their final focus on preparing for Tulsa.

I also agree that the recognition and respect that we (UH) desire hinges on the outcome of this game… but as mentioned previously, the coaches and players have already acknowledged this throughout the season. While I still am no fan of McMackin’s public speaking abilities, he has managed to earn this one vocal critic’s respect with regards to his coaching/leadership/managerial abilities over the course of this season. And it isn’t just because of the 10+ wins; it has been how the coaching staff and team has looked this year compared to the previous two (competent and competitive). Considering the body of work this season, it would surprise me to see this squad regress and come out looking ill-prepared and unfocused in this bowl game.

174,

But realistically, how much can the coaches know about him if he played in Utah the past few years?

Remember we didn’t offer him out of high school. I’m just really anxious for story to break out today or tomorrow because they have signed so Mack will be allowed to comment on him and Cecil.

Snows coach must have really put in a good word or something

But were agreeing the Heun experiment didn’t pan out right?

I think were good enough to recruit READY TO PLAY JUCO guys and I dont mind developing freshman.

Remember, this is a 2 to play 2 guy. Redshirted at Utah already. So if this guy isn’t ready to go this fall, its almost a waste of a scholarship. And I thought we were some what thin on scholarships

Thor will be a project in the making, good kid, nice family, just needs more reps and needs to bulk up. Congrats on coming home….

hmmm.. in August 2008 (summer camp) Thor also broke his left hand.

Defensive lineman Thor Salanoa has broken his left hand. The injury, however, can’t get any worse and has been casted up — allowing Salanoa to keep playing .

http://www.deseretnews.com/blog/20/5001047/Utah-Utes-Camp-report-Day-8-Scrimmage.html

That year he redshirted.

Then in August 2009, he’s reported to have a broken Scapula.

Then ends up in Snow College.

This link indicates that he did play for Snow College in their bowl game this year.

http://www.njcaa.org/Teams/football/2010/TOMB_Final_2010.pdf

AH found him on the roster at this link

Phew… talk about being under the radar.. hope he is fully healed and ready to roar.

If you ask me. Sounds like injury prone. No one has yet to find anything about him being a good football player.

Yes his name is cool, his dad was good, but I still wanna find something on him dominating.

This isn’t a guy we can redshirt for 1 year, learn system 2 years, than play.

this is a guy with 2 years left to play football.

eh… I’ll celebrate his name.

No sweat from me. I didn’t sign him.

It’s not WHO Tulsa beat or where they beat them it’s about the match ups and what problems Tulsa presents to UH.

Their quick no-huddle is something to be concerned about indeed.

Besides UConn could be Notre Dame and Kahuku could beat UConn.

jeezy..

He might have three years… he was injured in 2008 before the season started… and redshirted… then in 2009 before the season started he has his shoulder blade broken when he got tackled during summer camp.. (why he was being tackled.. I don’t know). So, he has two consecutive years of injury. He might be a 6th year possibility.

Nagamine must own an iPhone. Hard to hear her interview on 1420 right now.

I don’t know about Jake Heun being an experiment. They moved him to defense, and he’s done his job. I like his background story. I mean, how many college athletes did some amateur MMA stuff?

Tulsa… SMU beat them in a very low scoring game… Wonder what that game looked like?

Back later… one of my daughters has a concert shortly.

Nagamine also says that she hopes to decide on a coaching staff by the end of January 2011.

#160- the “Warrior-fied” U looks even better!

@ 189,

whom you beat and where you beat them defines the quality and performance of your team.

geez, that is so basic it defies explanation….it becomes part of the equation when ranking teams…Tulsa defeating ND at South Bend was huge and opposing fan dribble wont marginalize the fact that Tulsa is a dangerous Bowl foe and worthy of concern, especially when they have doubled Hawaii’s practice time….as far as Tulsa not respecting Hawaii for defeating Nevada–that is groundless and laughable.

Breathe in and out, take in a deep braethe and release it slowly. Close your eyes and imagine a cool running stream, wind rustling through the branches of the trees around you. Relax everyone trust the coaches and the kids they will do alright. Its a Football Game.

I kinda remember all the people making a lot of noise when the depth chart showed that Cory Paredes was going to start, I think that it turned out pretty well, don’t you. This year has been a blessing please enjoy it and wait, I am sure you will not be disappointed.

k…2008 sugar bowl….

Fact..Tulsa Beat Notre Dame in South Bend.

Fact..Tulsa will play Hawaii in Honolulu

Fact..Will they beat the Warriors?…don’t know but me thinks…NOT!

GO WARRIORS!

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/544615-2010-hawaii-bowl-hawaii-vs-tulsa-preview-prediction

“Prediction: While defense won’t be the reason fans tune into this game Christmas Eve, it’s worth noting that Hawaii forced 23 interceptions this year, and Tulsa had 19 picks. I think which ever quarterback doesn’t make the big mistake wins this ball game. I’m going with Hawaii winning one of college football’s most entertaining pre-New Years bowl games in their own back yard.

Hawaii- 42 Tulsa- 35”

Interesting new soccer coach. I hope she will be able to recruit tougher players. We need stronger faster defenders as well as scorers.

All I know is that I can’t run as fast as the ‘big men’ running up & down the field after practice…and some of them have 200 lbs. more den me.

GO WARRIORS!!!

CfK,

I’ll see you on Saturday!

(J)J,

I have something to give away at the party.

Hmmmm, the heaviest listed weight on the UH roster is 330#’s. that means Ms. Slugger is 130#’s or less. LOL

#242

Just a small point BigIslandKurt, according to Tomboahi’s site London Sapolu is a 3 to play 2 guy which means he was redshirting this year.

In the grand scheme of things I would think there is a sense of belonging because you want to be a Warrior, whether on scholie or not. I’ve read about the togetherness and family atmosphere of this year’s team, I hope one having a scholie over another is not a big issue.

Wednesday’s Wisdoms!

1. National Championship will be decided between Nike and Under Armour. Oregon will be breaking out new Nike uniforms. No sure about Under Armour. I’m leaning on Auburn, but I might change my mind since the points are very valuable and I think Oregon will be motivted to prove that they can beat the Heisman Trophy winner and they will be the underdogs. Be always beware of the underdogs. It has been proven time and time again.

2. To practice or not to practice? I am not worried one bit. I trust Coach Mack and the asst. coaches. Taking finals and taking care of the academics is first and foremost. In the end, we want to graduate all our players and do well in school. The coaches have know what they are doing and are preparing for Tulsa. The players are not burnt out with lots of rest and can heal their wounds. They have been doing their weight lifting and conditioning drills. Game plans have been worked on and scouting reports on Tulsa is all pau. Recruiting have been going on. A good week of practice between today or tomorrow and next Wednesday is enough. The main thing in the next 7 to 8 days is to get the timing back and the execution. Everybody should be able to go, fresh, and prepared. If we lose to Tulsa, it will not because we didn’t practice enough. Tulsa is good, we know that. But, I like Hawaii because I think our defense is a little better than their defense. I also believe that we will get some turnovers, Tulsa will get some too, and the difference will be who makes the most “BIG” plays. I also like the fact that we are playing at home and that’s always a plus. The fact we lost to Notre Dame the last time in the bowl game should help in the fact that

we don’t want to lose in the bowl game 2 straight times. No way Hawaii will not be motivated. The key for Hawaii’s defense is to slow Tulsa’s QB from running the ball for a lot of yards. So, our run defense is the main thing. If our run defense is good, we win this game easily. If not, it will be long day and a very close game. Like I said, I like Hawaii giving the points.

3. Thor Salanoa, Sr. went to BYU and had a very good career there. My wife taught Thor Salanoa, Sr. in kindergarten at Aiea Elementary in the early 70’s. His family lived in Makalapa and Thor, went on to Radford. My wife remembers him as a good boy as a youngster. Good luck to Thor, Jr. with his UH career. P.S. My wife also taught some of the Ala family. Many of the Alas are all related many from Waianae. Anyway, some of the kids she taught were Navy Ala and Arizona Ala. They lived in Makalapa also and their father was in the Navy, thus the names. One of their uncle is Tui Ala, who played for UH. Their cousin is Houston Ala, who also played for UH.

Coach Nagamine has contacts in club soccer locally, US Youth Soccer, US Soccer, and Olympic development programs. Hopefully this will enable her to recruit dynamic players.

With Wahine soccer now in the Big West, hopefully Coach Nagamine will be able to go after some Cali talent.

Are there games we aren’t supposed to win?

i’m gonna miss football dis coming off season. please coaches, make me have a great off season by making my xmas wish coma true. pretty please

When I heard the name Thor Salanoa the first thing that came to mind was fullback.

The no huddle is very effective against our Warriors because our defense is often on the field for a lot more plays than our offense. If our offense can get in rhythm early, this doesn’t pose a problem as the other team becomes pretty predictable if they are in catch up mode. BUT, if the offense can’t get in synch fast enough, the defense gets worn down quickly and then it’s a shoot out OR … a blow out against Hawaii.

So how do you stop the no huddle? If not by sheer superior athleticism?

Is mentioned this before, but, IMHO, maybe the best way to stop a no huddle is to have two sets of DE’s and Outside linebackers (and any other positions on defense that get gassed by the no huddle) rotating in every time the chain is moved. Defensive coaches can coach up the players waiting to go in. Keep their minds fresh and don’t let them get overly winded, and you defeat two of the main reasons to implement the no huddle.

MIH:

what about the DBs as UH likes to make different 5 cent packages?

your idea has merit in the coaches having different packages ready to go – means all defensive players down to the 3rd string must be ready to go – mind in the game rather than any “grab ass” on the sideline.

Did anybody watch the Tulsa – SMU game? How did SMU handle them?

By the way, condolences to the Salanoa family on the passing of their dad, and grandfather. Brought up sons who were all football players for Radford high school, with the youngest one coming back to Radford to be the head coach. In addition to bringing up some good church going sons, Grandpa was also a stout bodyguard for Govs. Burns and Ariyoshi. I always admire the guys who every work day are willing to take a bullet for their principal.

Auwe to all the soccer girls on the soccer team. Pretty soon they going feel like they are on the cross country team. Da new coach from Kamehameha and HPU, she no take #@%* from anybody. Girls going run, and run, and run, and run, and run, , before dey going ever kick one ball. All da girls goin’ say, “eh coach, I came hea for play soccer or I came hea for run track.” Coach goin’ say “Eh, shut your mouth and keep running.”

The Warriors have failed miserably in their last three season finals. Two (Sugar Bowl and Notre Dame) can be blamed on how they prepared for those games. This coming game can be viewed as the team’s Season Final. It’ll determine the teams final grade for the season.

Stretch is right in his concern about how the team is “studying”(preparing} for this final test. Tulsa is using the maximum “study time” allowed while UH is going into cram mode. Once the team checks into their hotel, the distraction factor is going to be multiplied several times. Families, girlfriends and freinds will be vying for the player’s and coaches time.

Against ND the team fell for all the Waikiki distractions that visiting teams in the 80’s would fall for. Plus the distractions of making time for family and friends for the Holidays.

There’s no switch to turn on focus and itensity. Those are things you build in practice and the coaches maintain during game week.

I hope I’m wrong in my concern. I hope the Warriors come out sharp and pass this test with flying colors. I hope Mack is not from the Wade Phillip’s school of coaching, you know let your players have a few days off during the playoffs, let Romo go to Mexico with Jessica.

okay…. i not going get all huhu an try fo outcoach da coach an make negative kine waves.

i going trust dat da coach reads da blog, and he’s given do odda coaches da message…

prepare to win… da odda experts say we supposed to win… big…

so to me dat means I gotta trust da coach…

he’s gotten more confident lookin as da season’s gone along.

plus, lookin at da practicin on Chawan’s video tonight… yup, i get fait.

no ifs, ans or butts.

g’nite Warrior Nation. zzzzzzzzzzzzz

If you’re cross-eyed and have dyslexia, can you read all right?

The State of Hawai`i does NOT yet own the land under which Aloha Stadium sits so until that happens, they cannot sell it.

Furthermore, there is NO reason why a new stadium cannot be built there. All totaled, there are 132 acres on the site of which seven make up the current Stadium.

There is no room in urban Honolulu to building a new stadiym EXCEPT by tearing down the cheap walkups between King Street and Kapi`olani Blvd. between downtown and the University.

Furthermore, the CIP priorities of both the Legislature as well as the Abercrombie Administration are Department of Education, the University System, Department of Land & Natural Resoiurces, the State Hospital, the Department of Trasnportation – roadways, harbors & airports to name just a few.

Whoops!! Too many spelling/typing errors to correct, but I think you get what I mean.

Waiting for the holy grail and maybe the crystal skull! Mo Latu would be a good start, either an offensive line or defensive lineman, 6’3″, 306 lbs. from Arizona. Is he coming for a visit in January?

It’s interesting that UH doesn’t seem to have a lot of in roads in the state of Texas ever since June Jones left. The last time we got a player from Texas was last years class, Desmond Dean who is redshirting this year. In recent past, we got a number of defensive backs from Texas like Myron Newberry, Gerard Lewis, and Ryan Mouton. These guys were good players for us. No big, but were solid.

Any updates on the following:

1. Is David Katina in the program?

2. Where is Chad Kapanui?

3. Where is Charles Tuaau?

4. Where is Pep Fonokalafi?

5. Mike Wadsworth returning to the program after the 2011 season after his mission?

6. Who actually are the grayshirts who will join the program in January?

Ryan Mouton.

Haven’t kept up with those Warrior NFL’s from Texas. How are they doing?

#297 ~ I see the soccer girls running around the track at Ching Field in the mornings sometimes. Rachel is the most consistent. She was out there on Monday all by herself. Looks like she was keeping track of the time for the group the week before last. So, they were running on their own.

Who would have thought that at the end of this season, the player with the most all purpose yards, just behind Salas, would be Alex Green? And second only by 168 yards!

ALL PURPOSE …Total …… Avg/G

Greg Salas………..1679 …….129.2

Alex Green………..1511 …….116.2

Rodney Bradley…. 513………42.8

Chizzy Dimude…… 323………24.8

Allen Sampson……196 ………16.3

Aloha Tsaiko Ohana!!

Strange pattern here from my viewpoint….No matter what the news is, some folks here always are sure that the sky is falling, and can’t let go even when we are coming to the end of a remarkable season.

Coach Mack assures us that he thinks that they have enough practices scheduled to get ready for Tulsa. Coach Petersen of Boise State who has a very good post season bowl record tells the media that he is only going practice 6 times. It is pointed out that getting the academics taken care of is critical to making sure that nobody is disqualified for the Tulsa game.

Bloggers who don’t have anything like the experience of these two gentlemen go on and on about what a mistake is being made by not practicing at the time that the coaches say student-athletes need to study for their finals and finish project assignments. They bring up the Sugar Bowl beat down and the Notre Dame humiliation.

Personally, I think Coach is stressing the right values even though I an also haunted by the fear of another national TV collapse. That demon needs to be dispatched. The Sugar Bowl and the Notre Dame defeats really stung. But I think that this is the team to get over that hump.

This team has been getting better and better on both sides of the ball. The players are at home; not at altitude after a long road trip. The defense has gotten stronger with every game and has surely learned from their previous experiences with the hurry up offense style.

This group of coaches is the strongest we have had since Coach Mack took over. They have the Colorado and the La Tech hurry ups to study; they have had plenty of time to study what Tulsa does.

I don’t think anybody, coaches or players, is taking this game lightly.

I think this is a team that takes care of business and realizes that they have a chance to go down in history as one of the best teams that Hawaii has ever had if they can put the exclamation point on the season by smashing a pretty good Tulsa team.

Bottom line: I believe.

Aloha and esme woosh…

…oh, and Mahalo, chawan_cut! I missed all of the news pgms tonight.

re:327

In last February’s blog, ST posted that PEP and Charles were both going to Arizona Western. I checked the roster for this year and their names weren’t there. But Maafala, Quines, Lopati, Alofipo, and others were there. I hope the coaches are keeping track of these players.

I also hope Pep and Charles are trying to make it some where.

You are utterly correct on that!

Great review. Thanks for posting such an in depth impression. I’ve handled one in the store, but your review covered alot of ground that I couldn’t with such a limited amount of time. Based on my in-store experience and your review I think I’ll be waiting for a future generation to arrive.

The whole level of [logo] layout will not be to show off??? what you could do. It is not about bells and wh istles. It really is that form of thinking that has a lot of recent designers applying gradients on every layout ingredient as if they’d a little something to do with v isual communication. The lion drawing does notneed any longer pol ishing. From exactly where I stand, It truly is at a point where by it might ONLY be utilized or d iscarded. When you assume it needs far more pol ishing ,that it’s too cartoony??? , or you have styl istic objections using the option, then maybe you??? re while in the mistaken occupation. You??? re complaining about something very elementary to contemporary graphic style. I have read from many of the greats to the topic of design and I do feel I have a handle around the topic. It isn’t your cope with, I recognize that. What I do notunderstand is your layout philosophy. It can be famous which you suppose Nike and Shell are great manufacturers. Maybe you??? re an Global Type zealot who thinks a grid is a solution to every single layout issue. Maybe that is what you meant by pol ished?
