Sunday ramblings
• Nice to see that former Warrior wideout Ashley Lelie has been re-classified as a UH student assistant, allowing him to coach on the field. As a student manager, he was allowed to serve as only an off-field mentor to player. Lelie received clearance from the NCAA, which allows schools to offer student assistant positions to players who returned to their schools to complete work on a bachelor’s degree. Jason Rivers also will be a student assistant. Not sure what roles Fetaiagogo Fonoti and Lance Samuseva, who already has a bachelor’s degree, will fill.
• It’s nice when popular opinion and the coaches’ opinion match. Freshman sensation Allen Sampson will not redshirt this season.
• With Scott Enos locking down the placekicking job, freshman Tyler Hadden will be available on a need-to-play basis. Barring injury, for the first road trip — to Army and Colorado — safety Kenny Estes will be Enos’ backup.
• The Warriors got to wear their game-day helmets during yesterday’s practice. Seeing those dark-green helmets makes you realize the opener is very near.
• Some players were under the illusion that they could still request number changes. What they’re learning is the number worn in practice might not be the number worn during games, if a formal request was not made. The names already have been sewn onto the jerseys.
• It appears Brashton Satele survived the New York Jets’ first cut. Linebacker Calvin Pace’s foot injury, while bad for the Jets, is helpful to Satele’s situation.

Very happy birthday wishes to …
• Dylan Linkner — fellow Windward resident who always works hards (and usually for low or no pay).
• Kerri Mokulehua — one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
• Keith Ah Yuen — the voice of reason, and what a “One In A Million You” voice.
• Ian Rutka — To paraphrase Rod Tidwell: You’re militant but we love you.
• Pomai — One of the many who walk the walk.
• Cliff Sanchez — A man whose heart is as big as his playing-days hair (and he had big hair back in the day). Those kids in L.A. are lucky to have your help.
• Pohai Keli‘ikipi — One of the top nurses around. And funny, too. She’s doing my eulogy.
And … how many birthdays are there today? Pomai and a Pohai. Michael Jackson. Elliott Gould. Weezy from the Jeffersons …
Happy birthday to all.
First, baby!
Morning, all!

Good Sunday Morning Tsaikos! Top5! Whoohoo
Any word if they are going to redshirt Bright yet, probaly going to be as needed huh.
Very interesting news about Lelie! It is great that he will be allowed to coach on the field, since UH will need an on-field WR coach if Mouse is in the booth.
This sure seems like there is a loophole in the rules that rewards teams who have players that do *not* get their degrees. If they don’t get their degree they get to coach on the field as a student assistant, but if they graduate then they cannot coach on the field unless they are a coach. So, teams with players who don’t graduate get to have extra coaches…
Dragging this over from the end of the last blog:
Looking at the Athletic Budget numbers, it is understandable why the bottom of the WAC has such a hard time improving itself. There is also a BIG problem at NMSU since they are #3 in spending in the WAC and they couldn’t afford a training table during their training camp last year and had to ask for fans to bring snacks and juice boxes for their players to have after practice.
UH spends by far the most of any WAC school, probably due to travel (that is a huge line item in UH’s audited budgets). However, UH would only be #8 in spending in the MWC, with only Wyoming and Colorado State spending less. The lowest budget in the MWC would be #4 in spending in the WAC.
BSU spending less than UH, Fresno State, Nevada, and NMSU surprises me.
MWC athletic budgets (2008-09 fiscal year)
» TCU, $46.5
» BYU, $35.6
» San Diego State, $34.5
» Air Force, $33.0
» New Mexico, $32.0

Interesting feature article about whether or not Montana and Montana State can afford to move up to D-IA. Montana sure doesn’t have much of a TV market right now:
Maybe it wasn’t UNLV or SDSU that tipped off the MWC about the WAC’s plans. It seems that the WAC feels that someone in C-USA’s office tipped off the MWC’s commissioner. When the MWC met with the C-USA last week, numerous articles discussed how the commissioners of the MWC and C-USA were close friends and longtime colleagues. So, with the MWC and C-USA discussing multiple partnership/teaming opportunities, isn’t it feasible that the C-USA’s commissioner let his good friend Craig Thompson know about what Karl Benson told him?
Karl Benson told UTEP that the WAC wanted to trade UTEP with La Tech after BYU joined the WAC, and Benson hinted to UTEP that other teams would be joining the WAC also. Wasn’t that enough information to get the MWC to prepare to defend itself, especially since the other teams weren’t coming from C-USA so they could only have been coming from the MWC? The WAC says that “protocol” made Benson tell C-USA about the WAC’s plans (did the MWC follow that protocol? did the WAC follow protocol and tell the MWC anything?)…so, it appears that the WAC itself thinks that *Karl Benson* was the source that let C-USA know, and the WAC feels that C-USA told the MWC.

Some twitter updates from Miami’s practice today:
Garret:
UH is very particular, by the way, when it comes to GAs. The job must be posted for 10 working days. Not sure why, since GAs receive the equivalent of a scholarship, and scholarships don’t have to be advertised for 10 working days.
“What’chu talk’n bout Wheezy?”
#5 HNL – you are correct. This excerpt is from the article in today’s S-A sport section:
McMackin said wideout Darius Bright, defensive end Beau Yap and safety Bubba Poueu-Luna will be kept on the active roster, but used only if needed, preserving the possibility of redshirting.
Bright, who is 6 feet 4 and 230 pounds, is behind Rodney Bradley and Joe Avery at left wideout. Bright is a key member of four special teams.
McMackin said Bright will make the first road trip, to Army and Colorado.
“If we need him, we’ll use him,” McMackin said. “If we don’t, then we’ll make decisions.”
Of redshirting, Bright said: “It’s still undecided. We want to see how the season goes. We’ll see game by game. I’m fine with it. No rush.”
Good Morning Gangeez! 🙂
Happy Birthday to all o’ the gang!
A special shout out to Keith – Oh great one, may your day be a great one!
To Pomai – one of the nicest guys you could ever meet and the “Godfather” of Wahine softball!
Hey Cliff – On your birhtday, I hope your new hale is as filled with love, goodness and grace as you are!
On the one hand, Darius Bright is too good not to use this season.
On the other hand, if he doesn’t get much playing time at wideout, UH fans would feel sad if next year is his final UH season.
When I was walking back from church this morning, I thought how different people kneel in church.
It came to me that UH should kneel and ask for MWC invite.
I thanked God that football is back!
I think if we suffer at special teams, then use him, or if Bradley gets hurt.
Good Morning Stephen, Dennis and HNL. 😉
Although he attended City College of SF, Bright wants it known he is from North Carolina.
Mornin’, DPK.
It was nice to see the legendary Boyd Yap at practice yesterday.
Another nostalgia filled eatery bites the dust!

Good Sunday Morning Tsaikos. Happy Bdays to Pride, Pomai and RainbowCliff.
Getting ready to wake up the late risers. Go Y–P–O Go Wa:!: P:!:O 🙂
Boyd’s one of those “nicest guys you could ever meet” types.
I’ve never seen another local running back like him.
Try again WA ❗ P ❗ O
Tough situation for Bright. I hope we get see full use of his talents for as many seasons as possible.
Looking forward to that game too, sj! 🙂
Wow, lots of news (YAY WAIPIO!!!!!), lots of birthdays! 🙂 Ferd’s chronology of “The Project” made for interesting reading. I do wonder why it was protocol to tell C-USA of the plans before things were locked down. Or if this had to be done, have the C-USA person promise in advance not to repeat anything, along the lines of a nondisclosure agreement?
Technical note: the WB has disappeared from the blogs box again, but there are multiple listings of other blogs? As a friendly suggestion, is it possible to make the big “Blogs” label a hyperlink? I know there is a hyperlink below, but it’s in small type and people may miss it.
OK, I sorta-sorta promised I would do yard work today, so Waipio updates would be nice.
Gmorning gangie!
BIK- I wen go Myron’s boy graduation/Birthday/Bon voyage two weekends ago. Kini going Jersey fo play ball.
Myron still the same. tru huntah yet! Braddah tro one mean party. Mean da laulau/smoke meat/opihi poke live music.
Greenthumb:
As I understand it, plans may or may not be in the works to have a link to all of the sports blogs. You’ll have to ask Scott’s mother to ask Scott.
HiFlyer not MIA, his computer is on the fritz. He’ll be there with the early grill crew at the Tgate.
If I were a blog host, I would have one post a day, then add updates to the post. That way all of the comments stay on one thread, making it easier for readers to keep up with conversations.
Stephen –
I have some heart breaking news for you: It may be too rainy for yard work. And a look at the weather radar shows more rain lining up over the Maunawili area.
So try not to gnash your teeth too much while watching Waipio defeating Japan to conquer the world. 😆
Hau’oli La Hanau Tsaikos! Make this a day to remember a lifetime!
Dear Scott’s Mom,
Warrior Beat is my favorite StarAdvertiser blog, and we readers appreciate all your son has done to make it reader-friendly in its new home (numbers, etc.). Unfortunately, sometimes it disappears from the blog roll on the paper’s home page. On those occasions, it would be great to be able to click on the big blue “Blog” heading to be taken to the list of blogs, especially since lots of folks have been trained to think that blue = hyperlink. Hopefully this is not too humbug and would be relatively simple while you are evaluating doing sports-specific links.
Thank you!
🙂
Garret, re #10, I’ve always considered Montana a stretch for WAC membership. They love their football and support it rabidly, but their market is just too small in terms of population to sustain a full-fledged FBS athletic program over the long term. Missoula is the country’s 329th most populous metropolitan statistical area, which is actually below Logan (296th) and Las Cruces (202nd). It’s obviously much bigger than Moscow or Ruston, but Idaho’s and LaTech’s athletic programs are on life support from a budgetary standpoint. Best not to add another conference member that’s likely to be in perpetual critical condition.
By comparison, UC Davis, Sac State, Texas State and UT San Antonio are all either in or border large MSAs. UC Davis already has a $20 million athletic budget and Sac State is around $16 million. Both Texas State and UT San Antonio are approaching $20 million. Even though “football drives the bus”, I think that if the WAC is thinking long-term then all four are better prospective additions than Montana.
DPK:
Yeah, I know. I was doing my rain dance while Wena was in the bathroom.
…any video of that dance?
Cliff Rainbow and Pomai—
Warriors in Heart!
Happy Birthday
If I were a blog host( which I’m not) I would wear a different wig each day, post that pic, and let everyone try to quess who I’m trying to be.
That winner gets 2 comp. tix to each Warrior football game.
BYU will need to make their move by Wednesday of this week or remain in the MWC for another year. Right now still nothing but rumors and speculation out there .
So what is UH doing besides weighting the options ? My guess is nothing because doing nothing is what they do best.
I would say it worked except it rains every day where I live.
Happy Birthday Pride!
Another great commentor…
CoolEthan:
One of the best professors at UH is Lee Siegel. He taught religion, and would dress in character depending on the day’s topic.
So I quess that Elvis wig is out of the question.
Elvis’ b-day already came and went.
ST would of looked good in black.
btw, those are the type of professors that had perfect attendance records with their students.
I always wear black, when covering football games. You don’t want to know what you’re stepping on in locker rooms.
CoolEthan:
Only class that was better attended was American Studies’ History of Cinema. Met once a week. Watched a movie. Wrote a review. And they weren’t Mickey Rourke movies, so you could understand the dialogue.
Count down to the best’est team in the world coming up.
Don’t Mess With Waipio!
Good morning, gangeez!!!
HAU’OLI LA HANAU to Pomai, Pride., Rainbow Cliff and all others celebrating on this day!!!
May Waipio deliver a winning birthday present to you today!
GO WAIPIO!!!
Good news about Ashley Lelie being able to coach.
Go, Allen Sampson!
Go Waipio.
ST nice insert of Warrior football in todays paper. Looks like a glossy mag.
GOOD MORNING HAWAII!

Save this blog to your
“FAVORITES”…
and then go there everytime instead of
Star Advertiser home page.
Or make this blog your “HOME” page.
Birthday blasts to all especially Pohai, too!
tv announcers mentioned “ti leaves” but they looked
more like Shinto Japanese blessing leaves…
Happy Birfday to Pomai, Pride, and Rainbow Cliff – many more happy returns!!!!!!!
BYU announcement may have a twist that may make the WAC happy, happy, happy!!!
Lesson learned for Benson – never reveal ” all your plans to another if it is not your primary target” – getting BYU on board first was a lot more important than trading LaTech for UTEP. It could have waited. But, I do give him credit for crafting such a plan!
Without putting a curse on her, can this be Michelle’s day? Seven holes to go!
(My golf expertise is strictly on the computer).
Well it’s four more days till kickoff, are you ready for some football???
Make sure you show up at the tailgate, going to have a special drawing for a nice prize. Can’t say what it is, so you need to show up…….
Good morning, folks. HB’s to all! Oh, and goooo Waipio!
Come on, Waipio!
Still can!
=)
Only down by one. Anybody’s game. 🙂
Wow We have to say that is excellent. Even composing that article should have taken you a seriously long time. Many thanks for the hard work!
darius bright needs to be used, bubba poueu-luna needs to be used. beau yap needs to be used. this is a make or break season and especially with not knowing whats gonna go on next year. this is the year to put all the cards on the table. doesn’t bubba run a 21 point something 200m? we need game speed on the field. he can be offense or defensive weapon. darius bright is the man too. put them on the field coach.
Waipio scores. Japan still leads 2-1. Waipio runners on 1st and 3rd. No outs.
ha-ha…tv interpreter told announcers that Japan’s
manager told his players, “Don’t worry about it”…
but my Japanese friend said he said, “Your fault!”…
Wonder if the umpire has 20-20 vision?
Waipio coming up to bat bottom of the 5th. Still trailing 2-1.
Waipio coming up to bat bottom of the 5th. Still trailing 2-1.
Heading into the 6th inning. Still same same.
Michelle Wie leading by 3 strokes going into the last hole.
‘Chicken skin” applause by whole stadium all around the whole
field for Waipio pitcher as he trots out to his new position in
the outfield. Good job! Just winning the U.S.A. championship
makes me proud of the whole team and parents.
Japan takes a 4-1 lead on a two run homer.

Oh yeah… congrats to Michelle Wie!
Howzit Tsai-kos!
Congrats to Waipio. Great game. Keep your heads held high and no pay attention to those idiots on other blogs who don’t know that Hawaii is part of the US.
Congrats Michelle!!
GO WAHINE!!!
Feliz Cumpleanos to Pride., Pomai & Rainbow Cliff. Hope you all have a great birthday.
Congrats to Wipio for representing so well!

Waipio Warriors
You all fought bravely to the very end. You brought great pride to all of us. Thank you for allowing us all to relive the joy of LL baseball.
Remember…you are still The United States Champions!
Safe travels to you and your Ohana. You all deserve a hero’s welcome back.
This is what I did. I locked them in the same room as the litter box for 2 or 3 hours. Be sure to put food or water in the room as well. They should have used the bathroom at least once by than. If they don’t leave them in there a little longer. This should make them aware that there is a litter box. This worked with my cats so I hope it works with yours.
WAIPIO — THANK YOU FOR REPRESENTING THE 808 SO WELL. YOU MAKE ME EXTREMELY PROUD TO SAY THAT I COME FROM HAWAII!
Congratulations to Waipio, the USA LL Champions!
Hawaii is proud of how you played and represented the 808.
Congrats to Michelle!
Great validation win. Sky’s the limit now.
Wouldn’t be surprised if she wins the next tournament.
Go Wahine!
The freshwomen are getting better and the chemistry is there.
We should see THE team leader will show up tonight.
Go Warriors!
Beat USC!
Waipio* soory

Wie earned 375K for her Canadian Open win, her annual earnings doubled with the victory.
Congratulations to Waipio LL and to Japan LL!
Terrific LLWS Final..good to see team baseball on both sides. Too often the winner will be the one that rides one or two studs to victory. This game had it all: pitching fielding, timely hitting, and both teams fighting back from adversity.
Great stuff! A fun ride.
Safe travels back to all…
Happy Birthday to all the birthday boys and girls, men and women.
Happy Borthday to Pride and Pomai. Look forward to seeing you guys on Thursday.

Waipio may not be World Champs this time around.. but…
nothing wrong with being NATIONAL CHAMPS 2010!
Col A House, another way to top off Sunday would be in the north country busting our butts catching and releasing salmon.
Kudos to Brian Yoshii, his coaches, and the Waipio kids. Way to go!!!!!!
Happy Birthday Pomai.
Happy Birthday Pride
Happy Birthday RainbowCliff

WAIPIO’S HEROE’S
Hmmm. I wonder if Michelle is going to be like Tiger Woods and wear the same color shirt on every Sunday she plays. I liked that hot pink shirt she wore today. Is that going to be her good luck color?
Too bad about Waipio. I guess they were just exhausted after playing so many games prior to the big one. Nevertheless, they are U.S. champs!!! Three cheers for that!

Stephen Tsai: thanks for the lift out in todays paper, is there any way I could get 3 copies ( one for each grandparents and one for me!!) either put aside until I come out at the end of October or sent out to me. Naturally I’d pay for copies and postage. Thanks, have a great Sunday and week.
My apologies, I should’ve inserted a ‘please’ in there.
So, this is what I found about student assistants in the NCAA Division I Manual
http://www.ncaapublications.com/productdownloads/D111.pdf
11.01.4 Coach, Undergraduate Student Assistant. An undergraduate student assistant coach is any coach who is a student-athlete who has exhausted his or her eligibility in the sport or has become injured to the point that he or she is unable to practice or compete ever again, and who meets the following additional criteria:(Revised: 1/12/04 effective 8/1/04, 4/29/10 effective 8/1/10)
(a) Is enrolled at the institution at which he or she most recently participated in intercollegiate athletics; (4/29/10 effective 8/1/10)
(b) Is enrolled as a full-time undergraduate student in his or her first baccalaureate degree program (see Bylaw 14.1.8.2), except that during his or her final semester or quarter of the baccalaureate degree program, he or she may be enrolled in less than a full-time degree program of studies, provided he or she is carrying (for credit) the courses necessary to complete the degree requirements; (Revised: 1/12/04 effective 8/1/04, 8/11/09, 4/29/10 effective 8/1/10)
(c) Is receiving no compensation or remuneration from the institution other than the financial aid that could be received as a student-athlete and expenses incurred on road trips that are received by individual team members; and (Revised: 1/9/96)
(d) Is not involved in contacting and evaluating prospective student-athletes off campus or scouting opponents off campus
11.7.4.2.2 Undergraduate Student Assistant Coach. An institution may employ undergraduate
student assistant coaches (see Bylaw 11.01.4). The limit on the number of undergraduate student
assistant coaches in each sport shall be the same as the limit on the number of coaches in the sport per Bylaw 11.7.4. (Revised: 1/10/91 effective 8/1/92, 8/23/05, 4/29/10 effective 8/1/10)
There is currently a 12 coach limit for FBS teams. This includes the two GAs, but not the undergraduate student assistant coaches. I guess this means that we can have up to 12 student assistants. So, who are the best student coaching candidates that didn’t earn their bachelor’s degree? Did Jason Elam get his degree? How about some of our past great linebackers, O-linemen, or D-Ends?
By the way, student assistant coaches are not specific to football. Maybe some of the past great Men’s/Women’s Basketball, Warrior/Wahine volleyball or softball players are looking to finish up their degree.
Never mind. Jason Elam graduated in 1992 with a degree in communications.
Matt . . .
Thanks for the NCAA rules on Undergraduate Student Assistant Coaches. The way I read the last paragraph is that a team is limited to 12 coaches including the 2 GAs — not including the Undergraduate SACs. So it seems to be no limit on the number of USACs.
I think Garret posted something along this line earlier.
wafan,
The way I read bylaw 11.7.4.2.2 is that the limit on SACs is the same as the limit on regular coaches (12). The 12 coach limit paragraph is something I wrote up myself from what I read. I guess I should have blockquoted the stuff out of the manual.
I guess with Campbell hurt Colt has at least more more week with Oakland.
Matt . . .
Oh! Then, I agree. The limit on USACs is 12.
Happy Burfday to all the celebrants today 🙂
Almost time!
Go Wahine!!!
Go Wahine.
Matt i see they did away with the 5 year-eligibility period rule for SACs.
The LA Times has a long feature article in tomorrow’s paper on Mack. Some parts of it aren’t positive, but it could have been worse.
USC’s only backup center (who might have been starting at guard on Thursday) is out with an injury.
I wish that UH would have a student body President write an article like this for Ka Leo trying to get the students to go to games. If someone like this had been in charge of ASUH, I’d bet there wouldn’t have been the protests about the student fee.
The season starts this Thursday and the Away Games begin with Army on September 11. Away game travel arrangements and tickets are firming up, so please share your plans and hopefully locate other Tsai-kos attending the games. See:
http://home.roadrunner.com/~smurashi/tsai-kos/away10.html
Please email me if you have new or additional travel plan info!
RedZone,
Yes they did. Lelie wouldn’t be eligible to be a SAC otherwise.
Garret,
Judgin by the Student Body Prez’ letter, there’s a big difference in the culture between the two schools…
Private vs. Public maybe?
GO WAHINE!
sorry to hear about Abe Markowitz, injuries are no fun. heal up quickly Abe, the Trojans need you !
GO WARRIORS
Auryte Wahine!
Welcome back Mike Sealy. 😎
Way to go Wahine.

Food was just AWESOME as rice pilaf, fruit salad, cesar salad, baked chicken, ham, turkey, beef straganoff, greens, yams, mixed vegetables, fried chicken, sun sweet tea, guava cake and a “WONDERFUL” birthday cake with “tennis phenom” engraved in green icing !
I cannot say how much I had a WONDERFUL time !
EVERYBODY ate and drank to their heart content as well as stomach could not fill no more as Hawaii LA Chapter was represented and they were treated to my home and all the space available to them as the “huki lau” was on with my President of the Chapter and loyal UH volunteers just enjoying and sharing the WEALTH !
Mahalo to Paul and Ellen from Las Vegas for their gift n kind and #90 post LK who’s wife all time favorite Rainbow Warrior player Cliff Sanchez had me in TEARS to say the least as I appreciate your recognition so “VERY MUCH” that I may have a fan who still remembers ME !
I am going to sleep as this day was ONE I will never forget as so many came out to HONOR I and Mrs. Rainbow Cliff as we could not ask to be part of LOVING people who showed us “first class” love, adulation, appreciation and RESPECT !
Mahalo Hawaii for your GREATNESS !
Congrats to the Wahine!!
What a great sports weekend!! UH, Waipio, Michelle Wie…
Now, how about next weekend, starting early on Thursday…
GO WARRIORS!!
GO WAHINE!!
Hey Ronnie, IS IT THURSDAY YET!! 😀
OK, I did the yard today. Ninety minutes.
Aussie Mom:
I’ll bring copies to Alex tomorrow.
Matt:
Thanks for the explanation.
OK, confession time: Amanda Paterson was explaining it to me, but I was tired, and she’s Australian, and I just couldn’t comprehend everything she was saying.
Hello, Aussie Mom from the land of “paradise”!
Thank you for allowing Alex to attend UH and play for the Warriors. We hope the coaches will allow him to just “blast the football” to psyche out the opponents as their returners watch the ball sail over their heads or see all the Warrior special team members surround him while wating for the ball to finally fall out of the skies.
We hope you will be able to join our tailgate should you come to see Alex play.
could somebody help cindy luis, her “volleyshots” is shooting blanks…she’s bordering on “she sucks”
Super! I love these delicate posts.
thankyou to Stephen for the copies and A-House, hello to you. I should be thanking you for this fantastic opportunity which Alex has. I know he loves Hawai’i and his new found friends and ohana. (yes, he does teach me some Hawaiian words). We will be over at the end of October and will be at the Idaho game on the 30th- until then enjoy the games. Go Warriors! oh, and the Wahine Volleyball!!
happy birthday you all!
driving back from waimea today there in front of us is this big black suv with the “peace symbol” logo on its hatch door. personal license plates read “kymry”.
hay, i know the owner i say.
the boss, “yah right.”

Until everyone in americaI think we wich animal they can kill I’m churned up by the massacre of those poor creatures….I think the mass murder of those smarts but I am equally choked by the slaughter of cheeps, horse, whale and yes, even cats on some countries. A cow is a cow and slaughter is slaughter. But, we have to be a less complacent and take care of the business of the others. a broom
Short, fat and slow…just like their head coach who cries on national TV. Moniz couldn’t hit the side of a barn, defensive line can’t tackle, secondary can’t cover worth sh!t. The Rainbows are a I-AA team a best. I don’t know what’s funnier – watching your team get owned at home on national TV or the fact that you morons thought Hawaii was deserving of consideration to join the PAC-10.
