I think in the fall they moved him back to defensive line. That's where he is listed in the current roster.

Re: Real Talk: Has the team given up?
It seems to me as soon as they make a few mistakes that costs them dearly they give up. The secondary breaks down and the d-line becomes wholly. Plus they look tired.

A few? ALL of the staffing and decision making by CHOW ball has produce nothing but losing in the past 3 years.....Colorado STATE is a real good football team that just showed HAWAII how bad we really are....HawaiianHogster wrote:It seems to me as soon as they make a few mistakes that costs them dearly they give up.

Re: Real Talk: Has the team given up?
Yes, our opponents' coaches are better and more driven, obviously. We played well against Washington and Oregon State, but where are they now? Both teams are struggling. They were both young teams playing a seasoned Warrior team early in the season. Other than CSU, we are at least not getting blown out of games. And yet, the wins over Northern Indiana and Wyoming are nothing to get excited about. I gotta believe that after the initial games we've been scouted, and our weaknesses have been defined.Palolo_2LA wrote:ulua wrote:Like I posted in the CSU game thread, our D is not this bad, how can you go from what they was in the first half of the season to this, I believe they gave up on our Offense back at the SDSU game. After beating Wyoming the O went back to their old ways of playing.
Perhaps our opponents have good coaching and a drive to improve throughout the season, while the UH players lack both elements?
