Waiting game
NCAA president Mark Emmert left the door unlocked. The father of a UH quarterback hopes Emmert’s sentiments open the way to allowing easier transfers when a player’s head coach is no longer with the program.
Emmert is agreeable to some flexibility to the rule that requires a player to redshirt after transferring between FBS schools. Of concern is when a player, who signs with a coach and a specific system, is no longer a good fit with the program after the coach departs. Former NFL quarterback Kent Graham’s son Taylor transferred from Ohio State to UH in December after the Buckeyes hired Urban Meyer as head coach. Unless an exemption is granted, Taylor Graham will have to redshirt this season.
The transfer rule has been part of an ongoing debate that has gained more traction, particularly in men’s basketball, where the transfer rate is soaring. There are some sports, such as men’s volleyball, where a player is not required to redshirt after transferring.
The rule also impacts linebacker Jordan Pu‘u-Robinson, who transferred from Washington State to UH.
Conversely, the rule probably would benefit receivers and quarterbacks who had signed with UH because of the run-and-shoot offense.

Defensive end Dejon Allen has not received approval from the NCAA Clearinghouse to play for the Warriors this season. The Warriors will hold a scholarship for him if he decides to join the team as a grayshirt in January.

Happy birthday to Mark Rodrigues, who was part of college history: Video.
Foist!
Good morning Hawaii……..
Long time no foist! And I had been go for be come to find out had read da post before postinginginging.
And d1, from yesterpost, and today’s one, dats da beeg question.
Hey curveball! How you, braddah! How’s da mo’opuna?
Taylor Graham would be a BIG help if he could play this year according to those who have seen him practice. Is he that good!
GOOD MORNING HAWAII!
And good morning DPK!
Congrats to all the winners! And I am glad Wena is helping her hubby with the mailing out of the prizes.
Going to renew my driver’s license today. Hope I can find parking, by golly.
Mornin’ Tom and Ron.
Ron – the more the merrier.
If there has been a coaching change, then by all means the player should be allowed to play at a new school without redshirting first. It seems only fair.
Gigi:
Forget the parking.
Just remember to bring all of your ID.
ST: yup, I have my valid passport, SS card and drivers license.
If I were in charge, I would even extend transfer rights to players who discover their coach is an okole puka.
But enough about Arkansas.
Congrats to all the winners… Wow that would be crazy if Graham is elgible. He was already denied twice right?
I posted this pic I saw yesterday on twitter. Our BCS quality secondary hanging out.

Sorry to get back kinda late but just a reminder of NYC cattle call.
Where? Carmine’s in the theater district in NYC
When? 530 pm on Saturday, July 28
Why? Really good Italian food served Italian style
RSVP at warriorny gmail.com
Hope to see you guys there!
Is this the part where we joke that your SSN is III.
ST: trouble is, if a player is NOT named a starter, that’s when he will call his coach an okole puka! Too easy to do.
WarriorNY:
He was denied twice because of family reasons.
whoosh! that joke flew right past me. Lol.
Haha that was clever..
Morning everyone. Taking a break from work!!!!!!
That’s really unfortunate about Allen. I hope he can clear up whatevers held him back from NCAA approval. Good luck to him.
WarriorNY –
Love the visual metaphor in the pic! Mean da kaona!
@22,
Most definitely. They named it well too.
Woohoo a Kealoha Pilares T-Shirt Aurite! Mahalo ST!
Gigi, if you don’t want to wait in line, go to the satellite city hall at Koko Marina. Lots of parking and no lines
Since scholarships are granted on an annual basis, the flip side is the players should have the right to transfer without penalty upon completing their annual commitment.
Stephen, blog clock seems off by 30 minutes
el……..SID! el……….SID!! el……….SID!!! ST~Mahalo for the Sid Fernandez card.I once was given a Mark Tuinei rookie card from his mother that I did some work for. It was for my son. Neither my son nor I, know where da dam ting stay.
There is new law on renewing your drivers license called the Legal Presence Law. Make sure you bring a copy of your birth certificate and social security card.A lot of people show up and sit for hours then get sent packing when their turn comes because they weren’t prepared.
The New Law
http://hawaii.gov/dot/hawaiis-legal-presence-law
good morning everybody. staring the morning off a winna.
We should just skip ahead already and take DNA samples at the DMV.
Look at 24-Hour Fitness. They use fingerprints as ID.
I can see it now:
“Sorry, sir, but your license request has been denied. On the other hand, did you know you have a son?”
Morning Tsaikos!
WhooHoo! Winnah, winnah, chicken dinnah!!!!!!
Gigi – you might want to check to see if you need your marriage certificate too.
haha!!! Only on the Warrior Beat can you get this kind of response to your comment about renewing your driver’s license. Thanks, guys!
Must remember to bring my hair brush so I can look halfway decent for my mug shot.
Looks like we will never see dejohn Allen play
Not me, when I renew, I’m going with the Nick Nolte look.
Nick Nolte used to look handsome.
Nick Nolte mug shot: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/mugshots/celebrity/hollywood/nick-nolte
Good morning Tsaikos!
Congrats to the winnahs!
Hopefully Mr. Allen does whatever needs to be done so he can play next year.
Reminder!
What: Cattle Call in honor of wafan’s annual visit home
When: Thursday, July 19th
Time: High noon
Where: Maple Garden (if you don’t know where it is, den you not a Tsaiko! j/k)
RSVP on blog, Facebook or email joanne2375 at gmail, just so I know how many tables we’ll need.
So far, we have 12 definites and 3 maybes.
yeah, I remember Nolte’s mug shot when he was arrested for DUI.
i knew it.
i was going to call it yesterday, but, decided not to.
i just knew “lucky liz of kauai” was once again going to be the benefactor of yet another drawing. somebody check the dna, perhaps she and avis have the same gene pool?
Murphy’s Pigskin Pigout is on August 23rd.
http://nakoa.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Murphys-Pigskin-Pigout.bmp
that would be huge if taylor “crackers” graham wins his appeal.
What, birth certificate???? Barry Obama is screwed…. Haha yes, I had to go there
You guys would like Avis. She has her own dirt bikes at Kahaluu.
Allen’s options are this: Do what he needs to do and join in January or go to a JC.
Does Bobby Curran know about Schroeder? He ran down the list of possible starting QBs but mention of Schroeder. He even mentioned Cayman
Oops no mention of Schroeder
BC will find out soon enough
BC is going to the MWC media day next week.

Yippee!!! Winnahs!!! MAHALO, AVIS and ST!!! and Wena!
Healing Energy to all who ail… Mahalo, Ke Akua…
and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRIAN KAJIYAMA!
That coming from the same guy who forgot to pack snacks for his kids baseball game.. Someone send him a post it
Wow, awesome weblog format! How long have you ever been running a blog for? you make blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is great, as smartly as the content!
Haha, al…
HI CURVEBALL!!!
gigi- lucky you are not going to DMV in AZ, they might invalidate your bc!
Gigi, is hubby helping you carry the stone tablets to the dmv?
Ok, I’ll stop, now… I’m putting myself in timeout 🙁
blogginnlegget!
I don’t have a birth certificate because I was illegitimate and my social security card number belonged to someone who died in 1952. Since I don’t legally exist, I cannot do anything like fly or drive or vote or get a job.
Fantastic goods from you, man. I’ve take into accout your stuff previous to and you are simply too magnificent. I actually like what you have received here, really like what you are stating and the way by which you say it. You are making it enjoyable and you continue to take care of to keep it smart. I can not wait to read far more from you. This is really a tremendous website.
Congratulations to all the winners! Mahalo for unlurking, if just this once. (wasn’t that bad, eh?) Hopefully, we’ll hear from all of you once again.
What’s up curveball!!!
Good morning Tsaikos!!!
Gigi…you may need your marriage license if you changed your maiden name.
Interesting about Graham. If he gets his exception, it would make things more interesting indeed…just have to wait and see.
It’s really a great and helpful piece of info. I am happy that you simply shared this helpful information with us. Please stay us informed like this. Thank you for sharing.

Good morning Tsaikos!!
If Graham is allowed to play this season, we might have a new head coach according to BC. It will be Mike from Waimanalo. BC said his chances of being the head football coach is better than Graham being approved by the NCAA.
Busted! (j)j is Koa Mahu!
Congratulations to all da winnahs!
Its such as you learn my thoughts! You seem to understand so much approximately this, such as you wrote the e book in it or something. I think that you can do with some percent to drive the message house a bit, but other than that, that is excellent blog. An excellent read. I will definitely be back.
ST- check your SA email. Found a pic of you to post for Gigi.
Beware the two-way street!
If Graham gets a waiver the door opens for all schools’ players who have a new coach….including Hawaii!
If Taylor Graham has been denied twice already by the NCAA, Wouldnt the NCAA just deny his appeal again? I do know the NCAA can be a bunch of koo koos at times. What are the chances of his appeal being approved this time?
OK, guys, you can all relax…
I passed the eye test, don’t need glasses to drive.
Getting my new license in 4-6 weeks.
woo-hoo.
did you know your license is good for 8 years and then you have to renew?
The tricky part was writing down my weight.
But I told the truth and wrote down my actual weight, minus 3 lbs.
So did Dejon Allen get into UH, but not qualify in the eyes of the NCAA? How can that be? I thought UH’s entry requirements were the bigger obstacle.
gg…so what was that number?
mongoose…i believe that if he couldn’t get pass the ncaa clearinghouse then he was not able to be accepted at uh. the latter is more rigid than the ncaa minimum standard.
sounds like he’ll have to take some curriculum requirements at his old high school to get it and/or retake the sat or act.
Good morning everyone!
We had 14 new blog names appear yesterday. The rest were all previous posters, many who have been quiet and lurking for a long time. Good to “see” you all again!
so we can talk about bigwave and he won’t give his comebackers.
what a koa mahu reveal?
Thank you Mr.Punchbowl, A-joe and SteveM for being so welcoming to us lurkers. I prefer to hear what you regulars have to say, rather than add my inferior knowledge to the mix. I just like to ask questions once in a while. I read the whole blog daily.
aloha ron.
Yaaaay ! horoscopenet.com is predicting an Obama VICTORY ! Now I finally am beginning to like hocus pocus horoscope !
Now, if I can get Camille’s autograph.
Gigi….don’t forget to bring your marriage license. My wife had to renew her license and that is part of the requirements.
Like Stephen stated, this transfer thing can work against UH too. For example, Mike Wadsworth would get his wish and be able to get on scholarship for this semester at BYU if one is still available.
Look out #57 the sheriff in Arizona will be looking for ya, I mean after all he has nothing better to do than keep harping about his racist attitude towards Obama and continually insulting the State of Hawaii….hmmmm him profiling Hawaii.
Jj busted!
no lie. no lie.. no lie….
busted busted busted.
:blush:
ST…okole puka ahhhh thats safe from censors…I have to remember that good idea…I should use that to describe the sheriff in Arizona.
Hi Al.. self imposed timeout is ovah
I heard Demar is not coming? Is it true
BTW, Good Morning Tsaikos!!!
Woohoo!!! Howzit, everyone!
Gratz to da winnahs, of all doze chicken dinnahs!!!
And a happy birthday to da birthday peeps!
When checking da list… no beeeg surpriiiiiiiiiize…
Who else so lucky, but Ms. LizKauai!
Oh, Who is da lolo, who stole my…
Oh wrong song! Sorry, got carried away!
This is known as the “Maryann(e) Slip” in Tsai-ko lore, made famous by the late rasu begasu.
Long time bloggers recognize the undisguised syntax of each other, and this slip certainly points to a well known poster. However, there have been several impersonators impersonating the original KoaMahu/Koa-Mahu impersonator…try wait… 😕 … anyway, not conclusive.
Today’s Koa Mahu was Stretch. Check his syntax.
Admittedly, don’t know the particulars of thhis case as compared to Taylor Graham’s, but why is quarterback Phillip Simms, who played in eight games as a redshirt freshman last season at Alabama, being allowed to play this season at Virginia? Simms transferred to Virginia in May, and the school found out last week that the NCAA granted him a waiver to play this season. He’ll have three years of eligibility remaining, according to an AP story.
gigi – no wonder you are not a detective, that’s a pretty weak assumption.
Check his what??!!
I no believe that Stretch got any Sin Tax!
…losses, maybe. Taxes, no.
😉
SteveM- set you an email… try check…
ST? When are we ever gonna know about that mystery transfer? Or is it not gonna happen?
😯
gigi — Stretch??????
Amazing… actually he is one of my top 3 suspects for yesterday and today’s Koa Mahu. 😛
Gigi,
Why will it take 4 to 6 weeks to get your license? I went last year to the Kapolei Satellite City Hall and got my license renewed (and new license in hand) in less than 80 minutes total. Did you opt not to wait for it?
Cattle Call?!?!
Koa Mahu reveal?!?!
Very awesome you guys.
protector – apparently they aren’t issuing them on-site anymore. Kinda like passports.
jojo – you attending or are you gonna pull a jojo? 😆
krump: they gave me a temporary license that expires in September.
Did you know that you now have to fingerprint your right thumb???
Just got back fro Costco. I saw a $169 toilet seat that does everything for you.
Wahoooo another toy.I bought my very first GPS . It’s a Tom Tom and I can’t wait to take a drive somewhere.
😯
Hey Tsaiko V-Ball Fans – join the Downtown Athletic Club Hawaii at 5:30 pm tomorrow (Thurs., 7/19), Hukilau Restaurant, for a pau hana gathering featuring Wahine Coach Dave Shoji and son Kawika who last week captained a USA championship in the Pan American Cup held in the Dominican Republic. Also speaking will be Sean Carney, former Warrior setter who started the Elite Sports Academy. RSVP to Hukilau at 523-3460; more info at http://downtownathleticclubhawaii.org/.
Will you be sitting on the $169 toilet seat while driving?
jm – when is the deadline to let you know? My work schedule is very volatile right now. I’m painting offices today. I need to get back to designing buildings
Gigi and jm,
What a difference a year makes. Sounds like laziness on the agency’s part, but it could just be our old nemesis…budget cuts.
stretchie is not a koa mahu.
two whoooshes to you both.
My brother recommended I may like this website. He was totally right. This submit truly made my day. You cann’t believe just how a lot time I had spent for this info! Thank you!
jojo…lemme know. palolo transit should be running tomw.
FLASH FLASH FLASH
In a hot Warrior Beat exclusive, A-Joe has provided ST’s Nick Nolte look per comment #37.
Click on my name above and scroll down a little.
protector,
My understanding is that procedures changed to comply with federal mandates for ID requirements post-9/11. The State was able to delay the compliance until this year.
The time delay for forwarding the “permanent” D/L is to allow for the documentation provided to be verified. In the meantime, you are issued a temporary license.
IIRC, without the changes HDL would not be acceptable for use with TSA and other federal purposes.
OTOH,
as you can see from SteveM’s website, Ajoe is sumboddy “good-to-know” if you no mo proper documentation.
😯 😈 😆
Thanks al. I’ll let you know if I’m at my usual corner or not.
…and this from someone who has made at least two Maryann(e) slips…. 🙄 😆
You wanna know who the second suspect is?
Bear in mind, this is only yesterday’s Koa Mahu impersonator.
btw, the guy who stripped naked in PDX has been found “not guilty”
…apparently, it was no beeg ting!
http://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/story/19054257/naked-passenger-not-guilty
Last Call:
Wow!… You mean… if I get that toilet seat, I don’t have to go toilet anymore?
Awesome work A-joe! I thought I saw ST the other night in Foodland with that shirt
Ajoe and SteveM: HILARIOUS!!!! Wait til ST sees his Nolte look!!! hahahaha
gigi – you should have A-joe make you a “license”
three people know who one of the koa mahu’s are.
jojo…ok
jojo: that would have been something else! A-joe freaks me out sometimes, no joke! Lol
124…that comment could be misconstrued and a subliminal message might be assumed.
that pic could be a koa mahu sighting mistaken photo.
Good afternoon Tsaikos. Hope all Have a Great Day!!!
Aiyaaaahhhh! Liz won again? I need to take her to Vegas, LOL.
jm####, I may just stop by. I’ll have my mom that day and she can’t sit at a restaurant for very long so I may just pop in for a few mins and have to catch all of you guys at the next CC.
Ummmm Huh???
I’m not Koa Mahu but I do know who is. At least I think I do, almost 99 percent sure.
Great pic of ST….Is that before or after his “Low” dance????
Happy B-Day to Mark Rodrigues.
Whoa, jojo stopped by?
Great pic of ST as Nick Nolte… or did Nick Nolte copy this look, ’cause he one ack-tah? Which one came mo’ firs-ah?
Okay, back to work for now.
ajoe…it was very nice of you to give st an abundance of hair and they were all black, too.
What channel is the UH-USC game supposed to be televised on?
Bryson,
Fox, channel 1003 for Hi-Dif
Bryson,
Get an antenna
Bryson, UH-USC game is on FOX. Our First game on Fox since….. Georgia…. :-/
Did you folks see the picture of Duke Kahanamoku with Johnny Wasamulla in the SA. I told you looks like a young A-joe.
al – but it’s true! It’s either that corner or another corner!
Ai-yai-yai!
Will be at the Maple Garden tomorrow, but I’ll have to leave no later than 1 pm – have a press conference to get ready for in Kailua at 2 pm.
So what happens if someone isn’t able to prove that he exists – is he hauled off to prison? Is he freed from paying taxes? Do people who look like terrorists gave hassled whereas old used-2-b blond men get passed through? Will anyone wanting to buy season tickets to UH sports be forced to show all this ID?
What is the purpose of this law? And was it passed during the Bush II Administration or the Obama Administration?
I renewed my driver’s license today, because I wanted my picture to match the one in my new passport. The old license showed a younger version of me with shoulder length hair. I now sport a very short hair cut. I will be traveling to India in November so do not want any hassle regarding my passport and my driver’s license.
Happy Birthday to Mark Rodrigues. Get ready to wear the Punahou shirt when we beat St. Louis.
ST sent you a pic in your email that someone sent me.
How come you need so much ID for your license? Not a law here in Cali.
Good Afternoon Everyone!
Congratulations to all the contest winners!
jm2375: please add two more for tomorrows CC luncheon! Me and hubs are coming, however, we both work and he finishes at 12pm and I finish at 11:45. I’m coming from Kailua and may not get there till bout 12:30pm. He’s should get there about the same time. I’ll email you my contact number in case of cancellation 🙂
#152 PolyMom:
Of course in Calif, to renew your license, your social security number and current address must be of record with your DMV. I would imagine somewhere along the line you have to show the SS card to someone in order that it is on file with DMV. Don’t know how the current address is verified.
Tom ~ They’ll accept your utility bill or phone bill. It’s not that hard to deal with. CDL is still very strict.
Germany is the toughfest exam to pass. Anyone who has ever taken one will still break out in a cold sweat if you show them an international road sign.
The question on the written exam that I always got wrong was:
What do you do when you see a yellow light at a railroad track?
I still don’t know the correct answer.
I really like and appreciate your post.Really looking forward to read more. Will read on…
Gigi, I would think that the yellow means caution… the red (and train) is coming. I have to renew mines next May and am not looking forward to it
Jj. you lie you lie you lie. 😆
Its you. I know its you. guilty. guilty. guilty.
i can see your hands right now. breaking outta in a cold sweat.

Back in the early blog days when Tsai-ko photos were not available except for Cat…
I was scrounging the archives for old Blog Party 1 pics from Cat’s old blog. The first Tsai-ko blog party was held on January 28, 2006. Her blog had around 15 comments per day until then…zoomed to 44 when the Tsai-kos invade for the first time.. Thought you might find a sampling of the comments interesting to see, since her “Daily Dish” blog is no longer available…
Posted on: December 29, 2006 at 10:00:00 am (Catherine Toth – The Daily Dish)
We love Stephen Tsai!
Several weeks ago the regulars on Stephen Tsai’s Warrior Beat blog decided to throw a party.
Somehow — for some reason — my name was on the guest list.
Yes, I read Tsai’s blog. Yes, I’m an occassional contributor. And yes, I love sports. But I didn’t think I’d rate an invitation.
Why?
I blog about “Project Runway,” ex-boyfriends and, well, food. These diehard UH football fans weren’t gonna want me around!
Still, Tsai urged me to come. (OK, he threatened me.) And I decided to ditch work for an hour or so to check it out.
It was surprisingly … not what I expected!
After Cat reported on Blog Party 2 on February 21, 2007 — “Meet the Tsai-kos” her 30 comment/day blog exploded with 216 comments. I recall one of her most famous Tsai-ko comments: “Everyone is all over the place! I can’t believe I’m having two conversations on two blogs! This is outta control!”
Ooops. typo — first Tsai-ko blog party was held on December 28, 2006.
SteveM: mahalo for the blast from the past. Yeah, I, too, thought blog party #1 was in January 2007. It wasn’t. It happened in late December 2006. Ah, memories!
I watched channel 7 sports news tonight and was surprised that the sportscaster (Michael Cherry???) attributed his story about the Warriors to Stephen Tsai and the Star-Advertiser.
Why is this? Is he no longer allowed to interview coach Chow himself?
Very strange.
Also, what has happened to Kapakahi? He’s disappeared from the blog.
So, Princess Leila originally came up with the name TSAI-KOS.
And “doey” is actually Wena, ST’s wife.
Very interesting, SteveM.
Wait a minute. Cherry cited ST for information he gleaned from the Warrior Beat. But where did ST get his info?
gigi — yes, ST once told me, “Tsai-kos was from Princess Leila. It was popularized by Cat”.
The Daily Dish (Cat’s blog)
Posted on: February 21, 2007 at 5:00:00 am
Meet the Tsai-kos
Last night was the second-ever Blog Party in honor of resident blogger Stephen Tsai.
…
SteveM: what’s happened to Cat? Her blog disappeared from the Star Advertiser all of a sudden. Wonder how she is.
I guess I could google her name, Catherine Toth.
Happy for Princess Leila that she is now married. Good job at UH, good husband, too. Couldn’t happen to a nicer person.
Ah, wonders of the internet:
Born and raised on Oahu, Catherine E. Toth has been chronicling her adventures in her blog, The Daily Dish (www.thecatdish.com), for six years. She worked as a newspaper reporter in Hawaii for 10 years and continues to freelance — in between teaching journalism full time at Kapiolani Community College, hitting the surf and eating everything in sight — for national and local print and online publications.
She earned her master’s degree in journalism from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University in 1999, focusing on magazine writing and publishing. She obtained her bachelor’s degree in English from the University of Hawaii-Manoa, graduating with distinction in 1996.
Catherine currently lives in East Honolulu with her husband (and personal videographer and chef) Derek, their two dogs, Sunny and Indy, and an extensive collection of surfboards.
wow! did not know Cat was married, too. Great to hear!
I was wondering who was going to eventually marry the surfin’ Cherry Blossom queen.
…for real! 😕
HERE’S THE LINK TO CAT’S BLOG:
http://www.thecatdish.com/
Click here to see the Tsai-ko group caricature that was “commissioned” in March 2007.
Note Cat, camera and surfboard. 🙂
I had to be broadsided by a Hummer in August 2007 to learn about the Tsai-kos.
Was bedridden and unable to get out & about on a daily basis until December so I started reading blogs.
We gave up our football & volleyball tickets that fall to co-workers because I couldn’t negotiate the stairs; however, we were able to attend a few T-Gates and watched the home games at Boardrider’s and The Shack in Kailua. Fortunately, the volleyball matches were viewabke on K-5 at home.
We were back in The Stan and The Les to attend the winter-spring sports starting in early December
Looking forward to see folks at lunch – but I have to leave by 1 pm to get back to Kailua ato prep for a 2 pm press conference at Twogood Kayaks. Watch & read the news tomorrow and Friday.
hahaha, didn’t cherry get the smu from chow after he leaked out a story that was supposed to be kept under wraps as requested by the hc.
aren’t reporters taught to never burn the condifidence of the source.
too many green ones at mai tai’s i think.
?
200
WDoc: nice to see you again on the blog. Hubby and I plan to watch the Warrior games at Ige’s. No more pay per view for us. Too darn expensive.
Al: not sure if Cherry has been smu’d, because today was the first time I heard him. I usually watch Kekaula. Might be a coincidence.
First time watching CBS News, too, and I was impressed. May never return to ABC News.
Just realized this:
The Star Advertiser has a special deal with Hawaii News Now. Don’t they borrow news from each other???
And Civil Beat has a special relationship with Channel 4 News.
OK — midnight now and my mischief is over…
Going to sleep early tonight. Cattle Call tomorrow… 🙂
Hope we all fit.
g’nite everyone!
gigi…by the numbers.
since you not attending any games and you plan to watch all 12 games at Ige’s.
you’ll need to order some pupu’s and have a couple/few beers. with tip you could be spending $50 a game X 12 = $600 at least.
Al: Nah!!! We are going to watch only those games that are not shown on ESPN. Also, subtract the Fresno and Boise games b/c we will be in India. So how many games left?
so the gibber is still waiting on some reports. he wants to bring in at least one more recruit this year.
at this point if he can’t get a point…he just as well bring in the best athlete available. be nice if that guy can fill both criteria.
Isn’t Miah Ostrowski a point guard returning for his senior year?
so mystery dude’s clock is running down. he’s got a little over a month to get accepted before the first bell.
less than that if you consider camp starts in two weeks.
hmmm. Al may have a point. I’ll ask hubby which is more cost effective. Ige’s or PPV.
and furthermore, if you think that the ncaa will move that fast to accomodate mr. graham’s request…well don’t hold your breath.
Superb entry as always, don’t agree with all the comments but great entry added to favs and will be back

gg…technically miah’s eligibility clock for mbb (only) has expired.
there was some hope that he would appeal, but, its not happening nor were his chances any good. his bb clock started much sooner since…never mind its a long story.
pay attention next time, this issue has been reiterated time and again.
and on another note, just buy season tickets in the nosebleed sections and move down later to the student section like two other tsaikos that i know. hubby would also enjoy sitting amongst the coeds too.
gg…have i ever given you a bum steer?
we’ll see…
in the bargain of the day bestbuy online is featuring the superman anthology 8 disc set covering the 1978-2006 sequels in blu ray at less than seventy bucks.

What stands out in my mind about Miah O., is how valuable his presence was to the mbb team; which shows also that there are bb gems in our own back yard.

Hi there! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a group of volunteers and starting a new initiative in a community in the same niche. Your blog provided us useful information to work on. You have done a outstanding job!
Al sice you know who the “Mystery Man” is could you at least tell us what position he plays….please!!!…
Morning! Just a little banter as we get closer to the season.
Prior to heading into conference media day sportwriters are tasked to predict (first to last) the preseason order of finish of each team, all-conference first-team (offense and defense) team and POY.
According to the MWC Connection, Paipai and Stutz are mentioned for POY, but were cast cast as wild cards in that category. However, all-conference team seems possible for those two as I read couple of sportwriter blogs that had them listed. Edwards, Laurel, and Hardy-Tuliau might receive votes and have a chance of making all-conference. Thats if they were part of the 6-10 player pool selected by their team. Will be interesting to find out how the votes come out at media day.
An interesting note mentioned in one blog states Paipai is the only DE in the pool of candidates. No other school had selected an end rusher.
Got to love Andrea Adelson. Although she makes some valid points, her method of responding to posters isn’t going to help her win Miss Congeniality. Not that she cares, of course.
Hi! I’m at work surfing around your blog from my new iphone 3gs! Just wanted to say I love reading your blog and look forward to all your posts! Carry on the superb work!
This was an interesting post. Where did you reference this from?
Dear webmaster, your “The Warrior Beat | Waiting game | UH football, University of Hawaii athletics | staradvertiser.com | Honolulu, Hawaii” website was exactly what I was searching for but you were not on the first page of search results when I was searching. I bet you could get a lot more traffic if you were on the first page. I found another website which helped me get my websites ranked higher and drove a lot of traffic to me: http://venueseo.com/7-day-free-trial. I am now getting close to 1,000 visitors per day after signing up. I hope this helps 🙂
I like the efforts you have put in this, appreciate it for all the great content.
Congrats to da winnahs!
I’m at HNL waiting to fly away. Sorry to miss da CC.
