Hmm. I look forward to seeing Justus play with Jahlani, but he ain't so little.

I rather have Jonah than previously recruited David Fangupo. Word is he is still may grow a few inches taller.

RNS had big guys like Wes Keliikipi, Nasty Nate, Reagan Mauia, etc.

Fangupo is absolutely nothing in college football. Keliikipi and Mauia started out as walkons. Yes, I would like to see a big back, but unless he's going to be a major contributor on the DL, I would rather see him as a walkon. If our team was better stocked at all positions instead of filling big hole like we are, then I would be ok with a scholarship for him.

Sure glad that Jahlani decided to remain at UH for his senior year. That has to have helped in the recruiting of Justus!

Always good to have a family connection in the recruiting wars, although there is never a guarantee that younger siblings will matriculate to the same school. One older one went to USC, the other to Kansas.
Just saw this from early in the thread. Forgot that I had posted this. How's that for a prognostication!

The feeling is similar to the when UH got the Noga brothers.

BTW, where are the "next gen" Nogas?

Though it took 2 years for Justus to get primetime playing time, big bro Jahlani's assessment is looking pretty accurate....
