On another board, DL coach Joe Salavea who recruited Samoa, has left wazzu for Oregon. The post added this bit from a wazzu source:

Head coach Mike Leach and other members of the WSU staff felt that football players were being targeted by the Pullman police, making it harder to sell Salave’a’s vision of Pullman as a safe place for American Samoan football players to study and play the game.

I hope the Taufa’asau’s are aware of this situation.

The way I see this going is, if Wazzu offers during his visit, he’ll probably decommit from UH and take their offer.

Indeed. It’s funny how it’s the same with coaches too. And the very ones that go against their word are the ones that get upset at the student athletes when they do the same.

Yeah it seems that there is a difference of opinion within the family on where he should/wants to go.

#19:
Sounds exactly like something a rival Coach would say to a recruit that had already given a verbal commit to another school.

Rolo needs to find out if the dad is the meddling type. If he is….maybe its time to move on. It will be difficult to communicate one on one with the young man and find out about him if the dad always there speaking for him. If the dad is going to be the decision maker then Rolo going get an earful if things don’t go as planned.

If the kid make the decsion then its on the kid……that the way it should be. Meddling fathers does not always make the best decision for their kids.

As a former undersized O-lineman and a now full figured Warrior fan, I love to see us getting big guys. Especially guys like Anthony! He’s big boy with a motor.

al – She wouldn’t have a Willy or a Sam (no Sam) !

#18 Times have changed. Giving someone your word does not carry the same weight of honor once did.

Not liking it that Taufa’asau’s dad says that, “It’s just a verbal commitment”…..
