The old college try

#2 – About three or four of them.

Haha. Hate the iPhone auto correct!

Good to see the new coaches hitting the recruiting trail!

mornin

Yup, just as Boss Norm said: our coaches will be working hard.

Oops…I guess 6

Coast Guard said to watch out for da whales. What dey think we goin do to da whales?

Good to see coaches pressing hard on recruiting…

This is the NEW NORM. 😎

GET EM COACHES!!!

Awesome to hear that they are at those schools. Now who could he be checking out at the Big/Hawaii Island? Go get them flying mileage thingys!

Was skimming yesterday’s blog and after reading PIAADS’ posts, would it be too much to say that TECHNICALLY…

The past two head coaches didn’t show local recruits “love” as opposed to “UH not showing them ‘love’ “?

I mean… if their assistants wanted to hit the recruiting trails hard, but were held back by their bosses (HCs) then how can one fault an entire entity for oversight?

What about Muir’s younger brother? Read somewhere he is a senior and just as beast as his older bro.

Hey! The three day contact period started yesterday and my phone neva ring yet. What gives? I’m 5’8″, 200lbs, and can run the 40 in 12.2 seconds. I still get one year of eligibility left. Typical UH coaches not showing us local boys the love.

12.2 40 yard dash. I’m jealous. Seriously, I am.

Rauscher matta wit you?

12.2 40 I jealous too, but das cause I get gout in both big toes. Ouch!!! Time for go SH! SH!

Pride.: Wow. Get whales in Honolulu Harbor.

wot they neva teach you anything at upper campus dem known as pilot whales. dey help the tug captains. wassa matta you

They also need to stop in Maui to show some interest in the Baldwin QB. He is still an underclassmen, but he is tall and athletic with a good arm already. Think he’s a soph or jr. His name is slipping my mind right now though.

contact is good, follow up is better, getting to committing is best

I wen put my clothes in the Rauscher machine but neva come clean.

#40 too much uwehe ami and slide

papajoe . . . were you washing your tRAUSCHERs?

okay, I’m stupid already.

pride meet your cusin da oddah day and btw rest of world said hello bwhaaaaaaa

oh adding kudo’s to cChow new coaches for just finding these schools. good job men

Mih : WarriorTyme from Sports Hawaii says..

“Another recruit that might visit Hawaii is 4 star WR Davonte Neal”

Are you sure about that? Davonte might visit here?? He has been offered from every NCAA school listed 30+. I also saw him on yesterday Under Armour camp competition he looked very good; was the fastest to finish the progression exercise; He would be a first 4**** make that 5 star on my list to visit UH. He has offers from every Pac-12; was the LA Nike Camp and Stanford Nike Camp Best player too.

All I hope is they don’t get lost trying to find the schools. Not like what Doris posted I hope.

I think it’s best for Stump to rethink and NM didn’t release him yet.

But he is welcome to walk-on at UH with rest

Sure like to see Chow-Now Walk-On List coming this spring!

Can’t wait for this Hawaiian Winter to be Over!

kev-1:

#50 – maybe a WR or DB?

But if theres interest from a 5* guy wouldnt you at least look into it.

confession, so no one gets excited, I AM NOT…. let me repeat…. I AM NOT swimming in Honolulu Harbor…..i cannot vouch for any other Tsaikos at this time ….. I did hear that Kekaula has not been in the office yet….. hmmmm 🙂

Good luck to the Warrior Volleybows! Hope you guys don’t lose a beat with losing Umlaft, Z, and Walker. Lot to lose in a year, but coach Wade had some goodies waiting in the wings.

They (receivers) could all try out for DB positions.

We need help there!

guess i’ll try that theory, gonna eat some fried chicken, collard greens, blackeye peas, and chitterlings.

But ST we locals all eat Sashimi don’t we?

Sashimi is not for Japanese-only anymore.

Interesting news and contrast between 3 conference. Big news out of the MWC is that Colorado State will apparently have a new stadium for the 2014 football season! They are raising the money themselves instead of asking the state for the money and they had over $40 mil raised before this news went public and they kicked their fundraising into high gear.

“A new stadium is going to happen. This is not a ‘maybe it’s going to happen’ kind of a conversation. We are actively moving toward the construction of a stadium on our campus and it is going to happen,” Graham said.

He said on Wednesday the cost would be between $100 and 200 million. The university will be asking its alumni for donations and will rely upon private funding – not money from Colorado taxpayers – to finance the new stadium.

http://www.9news.com/news/article/240036/295/CSU-athletic-director-says-on-campus-stadium-going-to-happen

These numbers show that La Tech has been significantly outspent by other WAC teams, with Fresno/Nevada/UH spending dwarfing what the rest of the WAC spent.

http://www.latechalumni.org/s/810/index.aspx?sid=810&gid=1&pgid=454

Maybe a little known fact is….that us locals typically eat sashimi for New Year’s whereas Japanese nationals typically don’t.

OK here are Whale pics. http://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/story/16455591/2-humpback-whales-stuck-at-pier-35

Looks like they are lost and can’t find a way out.

In contrast with the WAC’s La Tech, LSU doesn’t have to worry about budget cuts hurting their Athletic Department.

LSU Athletics uses no state tax dollars and no student fees. All funding for the athletics program comes from ticket sales, radio and TV revenues, concessions and merchandise sales, corporate sponsorships, Southeastern Conference revenue distribution and private donations.

In fact, LSU has one of the few athletics programs in the country – and the only one in Louisiana — that not only fully funds its entire operations and capital outlay but also contributes back to the financial well-being of the university.

In the last two academic years alone, Athletics contributed more than $7 million to the academic side of the University, including $3.4 for the construction of a new Band Hall, $1.3 million toward the construction of a new complex for the College of Business plus regular contributions to the Campus Beautification Fund at $1.3 million, the Classroom Renovation Fund at $1 million and the Chancellor’s Excellence Fund at $400,000.

GOOD MORNING HAWAII!

Wow – great going Powell and Rauscher! Go get ’em!

“incorrectly” never tasted so good

Country folk in Japan mix in wasabi with shoyu. If you using fresh wasabi it’s hard to mix it into the shoyu.

IWWTHM,

Maybe that’s what happened. Not sure where he was but when he started stirring, it drew stares.

When The Eddie does happen, I’m using a sick day.

@ Cheepono, Bugaz, Kevin.

Recruiting in Australia is easy. There are a couple of people here that make it extremely easy for coaches to look, pick what they like and get the player eligible. Its not really ‘recruiting’, its the difference between having to go to the market to buy something and buying stuff off the net. We try to make it extremely easy for any coach to decide and get a player to their program.

With a change of staff, I could see it being a case of going back to square one trying to convince UH coaches that there is talent down here. Time will tell, and how the staff is structured will make a difference. 2012 will see a Pac-12 school coming down here confirmed and we will place the first non-punter at an ACC school on scholarship. I could see UH focusing locally and on the mainland for a while so the guys I’m working with now might just have to be prepared to go elsewhere.

As for the Jesse thing, a lot has already been written and discussed. I see a consistent theme in ‘recruiting’ regarding UH and that is a lack of just picking up the phone. I think Jesse would have gone elsewhere anyhow but his initial eligibility could have been handled better and much of the whole unpleasantness could have been avoided by people returning phone calls and getting off their butt.

I think Doris was very fair and honest with what she wrote yesterday.

Too fast….

al,

If he no can lead em out.. maybe he can scare em away…

Tyler gray….misused talent.

Well we should have 15 scholies now. Not counting recent transfers and commits.

What’s Stretch doing there?

In Japan everywhere closes for New Year for 3 Days!

That’s why they eat O’sechi Ryori for 3 days.

Sold at Shirokiya and Don Q at $150 a set.

I’m not sure but didn’t the starting qb for Baldwin get hurt in the 1st game of the playoffs or the last game of the regular season? The backup may have been the guy that we saw in the playoffs. Or maybe it was another high school team.

@Bugaz.

the impression I get is that losing the coach whom recruited him is a sad part of what comes with the territory. A change in scheme by comparison is a small irritation.

Keenan Ewaliko, the Baldwin QB played against Punahou, he wasn’t injured.

He is also the top young Bull Riding Champion in the state. He won the

Makawao Rodeo against some of the states top riders and is the state

high school bull riding champion. From what I hear the kids first love is

rodeo.

Gotta speak up then back to lurking….We need to understand that coaches recruit to needs of the program. For the good of the team, not to temper the opinions of the public. Mack built for depth in each position, just like all major programs do. Sometimes that means someone we all think should be a Warrior does not fit and is better served elsewhere. Doris should know that. Remember, Coach Mack mended broken ties to Kahuku immediately as well as all local high schools, implemented Jr. Day, developed a Recruiting Coordinator position…all changes to improve recruiting which I think he did. By the way, all coaches recruited..maybe some with their own agendas did not do as well as others but they had areas of responsibility. I attended Jr. day session with my kid and Coach told all us local parents that even if UH was not the right fit, he welcomed kids and parents to come to him or his staff with questions to help us understand the recruiting process. Anything he could do to help the people of Hawaii. The man has heart and is a professional and knew what he was doing. I remember a few years back Doris posting sour grapes because she did not get hired for the R.C. position by Mack. Shame, because he really spoke highly of her and PIAA. Don’t be fooled by Al and his recruiting scoops his birdies have broken wings. Jeezy…just no words for your constant slander. I’m sick of seeing this crap you are spewing on recruiting as self proclaimed “in the know” and innocent observers believing it as truth. The new staff is off to a good start…great…celebrate that rather than slam those who built the program and did not just chase championships but won championships.

Sorry for double post…that’s why I should stick to lurking….

My feeling is that Norm Chow is doing it from the bottom-up. Building up his base–OL, DL, QBs and skill people. What is deliciousily evident is the standard of quality Chow employs on his recruit list. After being at BYU, NCS, USC, UCLA and Utah, Chow has an acute awareness of the talent level he needs to be successful. Secondly, he has been away for 38 years and has effectively insulated himself from the prevailing cynic notion heretofore at UH, that the UH football program cannot score the bigtime bluechips–especially in Hawaii. To the point, where effort was not visible. So, being away, turns out to be a godscend, the benefit to which we still have to see….exciting stuff, for fervent fans to dream once again, hopefully without anquished outcome 🙂

All to be seen.. all to be seen… just gotta hope the chemistry the individual players as well as the whole is a good fit for Hawaii and what we want as a team that represents our Aloha State.

Penalty flags for all of you! Piling on, late hits and personal fouls! Get off the field!!!

How do you think the whales feel, associating my name with them and all?! Furhter, one well placed belly flop off Aloha Tower from any one of you into Honolulu Harbor would send our cetacean friends rushing for the exits!

Not to mention, ya got the wrong species! Those are humpbacks, not humpbellies like myself and the rest of you!

Truthbetold, well said! Lot’s of sour grapes on this blog site!

Chow has his style of recruiting. Mack had his chance. JJ had his uniqueness! Let it be folks! Move on people!

#106 – madeinhawaii –

You forgot the part about attaching electrodes to their… …nevermind.

Seriously, the news on the recruiting efforts looks terrific so far.

GO WARRIORS!!!

JkJones,

I feel the same.

Good to see NC making the inroads at local prep schools. What was that old saying in the movie Field of Dreams, “If you build it they will come!” NC lay the foundation and the local boys will come. You don’t need to retain 100% of the local talent to be successful. There’s a ton of talent all over. Recruiting is a process that involves rolling up your sleeves and doing the grunt work. Obviously NC knows this.

UW and Sarkisian are getting criticized this year up in Seattle for not retaining the states top talent. Top 5 players are all heading out of state. It happens all over the college landscape. Relax, sit back and have some Chow Fun! Sure miss the Chow Fun from Tin Tin Chop Suey on Maunakea St.

Morning (just in time), gangees!

DPK, good call! Tsaiko humpbellies…hahaha. Hope you are well, brah. Just don’t go swimming in the Harbor right now… 😀

Good luck to the coaches in recruiting.

Hope Stump hasn’t lost too much time. Do you think he could fit into our offensive scheme?

I remember in the 70’s linguists were pushing for the adoption of a phonetic alphabet… but the response was a lot weaker than the push to metrics so it fizzled before it could get off the ground.

greetings from Arizona! 😉

Maybe the next time around instead of a HC… we need a Football Program Director. Doesn’t call the plays… just makes sure that everyone is doing their job and fulfilling their responsibilities to the best of their abilities..

Man, did you see W. Virginia putting up 70 points on Clemson. as Pat Hill would say, “it’s a butt whipping”. And the best player was 5’9″ Tavon Austin. Not big, but super quick. QB Geno Smith ain’t too shabby either. That spread offense can score a lot of points. Chow knows that having flexibility is a good thing.

Funny story told to me about when Utah played Pitt in the Fiesta Bowl in 05. Evidently, Pitt players were not familiar with Polynesian players, being in the East and all. After the game, which Utah won, the Pitt players were heard commenting that Utah had some very large and physical Puerto Rican players………

Will-I-Am:

I think much of that has to do with the root of the word. English is Germanic.. many of its words are Latin derived. We also have so many adopted words from the French and more recently many of the Asian countries. English is a formalized pidgin.

English language is the hardest to learn. Just go ask a foreigner.

Daddy.. Daddy… why is there a hyphen in this guys name?

“A-House”…

shouldn’t it be “a house”… and why is he called “a house”?

Is it cause he’s as big as a house? Or cause he’s just like our house?

You know…

drafty?

Da English language is hard. But in Hawaii we get pidgin. Many foriegn people to go with da Kanaka Maoli. We can communicate good enough but when come to the courts, we at a disadvantage. W-I-A, no forget to make her learn to spell too. I use my gsp for directions, but somebody earlier today said gps. Gotta be da publik skool. 🙂

Nc should go after rb deon sanders.just a dream.

Stump Godfrey is an ATHLETE…If he can perform, I’m sure Chow will find someplace for him to play on the team, even if its not a quarterback. Who knows, maybe he could be a good running back…In either case, I hope Stump comes back and stays a Warrior!

fail.

ST, ‘ara-imo’ is a spud used in ‘nishime.’ But yeah, french fries is a no-no. That would be cannibalism. I ate steak. Would that be cannibalism?

and no forget that Iosefa was also a QB in HS which means that a half-back option with intent to pass is very viable with he and Godfrey.

to bad that Rolo used him only once for that extra point in the north end zone against BYU.

strongest arm QB we ever watched was Chad Kapanui out of Rosovelt ( purposely for ST ) – we saw his toss the football nearly 80 yards standing flat footed at Aloha Stadium – fact is, we would go in early just to see him do that!

MasaBoy says Coach Powell looks familiar (on the McKinley JV team ) when he was a senior – smallest NG in the OIA at 5′ 10″ and 238#s.

english language and spelling isn’t only difficult for foreigners but english speaking people too.

think i’ll go eat turkey tail.

often wrongly used words:

your, you’re

then, than,

too, to

their, there, they’re

accept, except

effect, affect

tomato and tomato

Chad Kapanui could also hit the (no cross that put it in rubbish can) from 80 yards out.

When JJ saw that next day he got his try out at QB.

Darius Bright …. tight end? Yes that will be a starting position for him.

bright catching passes over the middle?

trevor wiseman = tight end?

trevor wiseman = beast!…TE/DE?

mike edwards from the wide receiver position running the sprint option?

Chad Kapanui could fling it– saw him in practice.

Graunke also had a strong arm– could throw it way down the field in practice also.

doris…nuff said.

ivin jasper had a gun.

it is good that we have two coaches who believe in fast and furious.

both are puns.

It is possible to use a running QB in the West Coast Offense.

You would incorporate more rollout and bootleg plays.

You can even run option plays in the WCO.

If you saw Chow’s offense at Utah, you saw some series where he ran shotgun with split backs, shotgun with the backs moving into HBack position, Shotgun with no backs and four wide. If you watch WCO teams, the rollout or bootleg is a fairly standard play in the WCO.

So is the WCO QB draw– it works well because the QB is dropping from under center as part of the base offense anyway. He can drop and pump fake and run or just take off or run to the line and throw it.

Anyone — why is the receiver positions going to be cut in half ?

Yikes….

do the math…

rns = 2 sb, 2 wr, 1 rb

wco = 1 sb, 1 wr, 1 te, 2 rb

Doris, I think I love you…

Not all WCO plays require that a running back be a running back. You can certainly have a true WR/SL line up at RB and shift them.

Cheepono

You are correct– WCO typically does not have more than 2 receivers split wide– usually one on the line and one in the backfield (used to be called a “flanker”)– so need fewer of that type of receiver.

However, if you have the receivers, you can use them and run three wide (adding a slotback), or even four wide with no FB or RB and use two slotbacks (assuming you keep the TE).

The WCO will also motion the RB or FB into a receiver position, or “release” the RB, FB, and/or TE into pass patterns, depending on whether the defense is blitzing and how many the defense rushses with, so you don’t “waste” potential receivers pass blocking when you don’t need them, but you still have blockers to pick up the blitz if you need it.

ST, it was nice that you said nice words about Mack’s general success in recruiting and the effort they made to connect with the local schools. And the nice words about the O-linemen they recruited. The O-linemen took so much criticism this past season. I feel it was misguided and undeserving.

I think its rude and kinda shame to directly reference and criticize an individual on a public blog like this. I enjoy the opinions, banter and spirit of those that post here (aka-tsaikos!), and rarely see an individual direct such rude comments about another. Doris and PIAA have done wonders for our local high school players, I have worked with her personally and she is a gem 😉 To state you are sick of slander but choose to slander someone as you did? Auwe

Ditto wit ur comment…..hang in there, (Doris & al).

yes,let’s screw around with one of the greatest novels of the english language. diablo 3 gold

Kevin . . .

No worry. Strictly hands-off!

Football “team” leaves much to be desired. Last prospect was a convicted felon who accepted a UW scholarship where he constantly broke laws.

Boy’s basketball “team” is more like the team that challenges the Harlem Globetrotters.

Wahine volleyball and basketball teams, though, are super at challenging for and winning state championships with undersized players.

I don’t really care which coaches do the real recruiting among all the coaches… It doesn’t matter to me if Chow doesn’t visit player homes or call out to anyone. I just care that they, as a whole, do attempt to recruit all the best the islands have to offer first and foremost before going over the big pond.

A.M.

If Tyler wasn’t bound to UH by signature, that was the risk that UH took and Boise had every right to do what they did. Petersen has to earn his raise…

Hmm.. as a 17-18 y/o football player would you rather play for a $550K head coach or a $2Million head coach?

I think it’s interesting how songs that refer to change from way back when had a somber mood to it.

Today, songs about change seem to be more open to taking on a new challenge.

Kevin…

Does that mean anything is better than what we have today?

al thats historical korean dramas

Did BSU tell Tyler Gray we will give you a schollie if you don’t trip to Hawaii?

So what happens to that paid airline ticket?

not an expert…tyler grey was recruited last year. the coaching staff of last determined that he would come in as a grey shirt this spring (next week). he was preparing to leave home for hawaii when bsu called with a last minute scholarship.

tyler grey the greyshirt, decided to take the bsu offer vs the hawaii since the latter was not a binding agreement.

is it poaching or is it “when opportunity knocks”….?

In my view, it seems like poaching & pilau (pardon the spelling?) on the part of BSU. I don’t fault the player, but I think coaches should have some scruples & respect for each other’s work & effort in the recruiting world.

By the way, I noticed that BSU has been penalized for recent football recruiting violations (I.e., loss of 3 scholarships over the next several years) so their recruiting tactics have been on notice.

How good would it be if these local boys commit to UH? Who would be your top five and do you think they would play a big role immediately?

It’s open to anybody but you have to pay $80 to try out…

Doris PIAA DS already posted about it in #202:

“We are also hosting the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL workout/tryouts on January 14th. Im working with Chad Owens – he’s organizing the field and getting things done at Roosevelt. I will have pre-registration forms shortly. Requirement – must have some college playing experience and please be in shape (and Ill add not too old and cripple – when we did this with the Tennessee Titans a few years back every scrub and his brother showed up, 50 year olds too!) Info is up on the PIAA Facebook page or available if you email me at info@pacificathleticalliance.com “

Oakland Raiders gonna hire Packers director of football operations Reggie McKenzie as their next general manager…

Anyone see the Reggie Torres and Kale Ane working at the Under Armor Game on ESPN? Cool stuff, I wonder if Kale is learning how to put an all star team together (he did not do so well in the final game with his current all star team) so he can get over the hump and beat Reggie and the Raiders.

You can have all the talent in the world like Cal Lee did back in the days, but can you coach them up to work together and win the big one? That was the genius behind Cal Lee, he got the talent to play together and win.

Word is gotta be careful and take things with a grain of salt when it comes from Mrs. Fehokko. Just ask what happened with the FBU situation.

Good news, Newbie. Sam Fehokko will be in excellent

company with Pat Hill, Dick Tomey, and McBride. Maybe

those foxes will once again be coaching somewhere soon?

272 what is FBU and what situation?

Newbie, wow, he left the team and he is still playing in a senior all star bowl? He is on the official roster of the Bowl? Really?

Newbie, my prediction is that the youngest Fehokko kid who is playing at Farrington H.S.(don’t know what year he is) Will be pumped up by Mrs Fehokko as the next greatest prospect out of Hawaii. She will have the kid’s name all over the internet, on the news, everywhere, the magnitude of the hype machine is huge. Mark my words, when you see it in action you will remember what I said.

By the way, what happened to her other son, V.J. Who she claimed Texas Tech offered as a 10th grader and who she claimed was offered by the entire pac 10. He is at Utah, did he make All American yet?

Maybe Lydia will become a prostitue in London and have to be rescued alongwith her syphylitic twins, Tera gold

Why is Vili the Warrior, when none of his kids go to Hawaii???

283. Were any of his kids offered at UH? I guess that is an entirely different blog. Don’t want to revisit the recruiting policies that Doris told us about.

Kev-1, no news online, no news on the news, no news on da radio, no news. Norm must be putting together some big news and when it comes, it will blow us away.

288.

+ 1000

is it true that no news is good news?

#278…I was working that and she blew it for all of us.

Maybe Rolo and Tuioti will be decided upon based on who coach Chow is able to bring in this week. I really hope coach can get some great assistants, but also hope there’s room on the staff for these two. Best of luck to all parties.

Good MVB game. Replay on at 10 pm, I think.

Anyone else think nick castello is Elvis reincarnated? Im just sayin!

Maybe the next time around instead of a HC… we need a Football Program Director. Doesn’t call the plays… just makes sure that everyone is doing their job and fulfilling their responsibilities to the best of their abilities..

Howzit Tsaikos!

Good game by the vb Warriors. Stretch was in mid-season form. 🙄 😆

My question – where was everyone? That was one of the smallest crowds I’ve seen in a long time. Screecher and her friend got to sit in the Fantastic Fan seats tonight. Beginner’s luck – it was her friend’s first Warrior vb game ever.

New rule this year – 2 liberos can be suited up for a game. Didn’t see it tonight but Harrison Phelps is the 2nd libero.

I think coaches should have some scruples & respect for each other’s work & effort in the recruiting world.

Really? And should they also pay each other’s bills when they get fired?

Wanna make your program “poach-proof”?

Jus ween!

Congrats to MVB!

Eonatoa on #299-300,

I agree with al (#302) that it’s Nick West, the tall skinny dude with the “mutton chop” sideburns that could be an Elvis impersonator although I think the new Kiwi (Timmer) and Germanator II (Marks) will have even more female fans squealing, I’ll wager. I might go with your Nick Castello comment if you’re referring to Rob Schneider’s satirical take on post-nuclear Elvis with the mutated arms though.

286. i’m hoping too.
