TempManoa:
1.6 percent is better than the zero percent everybody believed after SDSU won last week. Who knew the tie-breaker formula would be that difficult to comprehend.
All I know is I’d rather watch football in late November than the alternative of no-football days for eight months.

Mack, like most coaches, stopped suiting up redshirts because, let’s face it, there’s no purpose for them being on the sideline except cosmetically. The bottom line is the sideline is a work area.
What’s probably a bigger concern is all the regular people on the sidelines (but not within the team area). I’m convinced most of those people want to be on the field to be seen, not to actually watch a game. We go on the field for the final couple minutes and the view is horrible. We have to take notes off the scoreboard. It’s hard to see coverages on the field.

Re: Ewaliko, Chow said it himself– he said Ewaliko was not playing more because he could not figure out where to play him. Chow said the same thing last year about St. Juste– he was trying to find a way to use him more but hadn’t found it yet. It is his old school style– you run your system and if a guy does not fit, you don’t go out of your way to find a place for him even if he is talented. Ewaliko, St. Juste, Donnie King, and others have mostly sat instead of being trained to play in a position that they can learn and get on the field to give our offense speed and efficiency and bring our offense up from next to last in the Mountain West in scoring and total offense.

Saint Louis QB will beast out next year and draw multiple offers. People will tout him (if they aren’t already) as the next Mariota. Hawaii won’t stand a chance at keeping him. They should still try hard though.

al . . . I think the Mililani QB has better character traits than Manziel. But I have thought the same about his playing ability.

Unless we are Mackenzie’s doctor, we cannot speculate on whether he will continue growing or not. Some kids are done growing by the 10th grade, 11th grade, etc. Some kids are late bloomers and have a growth spurt late. Mackenzie could be done growing for all we know. I do know that we should offer him a scholie, not only because he has 4.5 speed, or is an accurate thrower, but because we are the only state school, and the local kids, especially the top tier locals must know that we value them and want the best local kids to stay home. So keep a scholarship open for him, especially since he wants to stay home. The sophomore QB from Kalaepohaku will be courted by the best programs, and while we should (and already have) offered him a scholarship, the reality is that he is the second coming of Marcus Mariotta, and cannot turn down the opportunity to play for a school that is really “chasing championships.”
