Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
Starting 2020. I guess I can go to the games with my walker by then.
Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
I'm hoping that UH will still have a football program when the time comes.

Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
Great but I'm wondering what the landscape of College Football will look like in 5 years.
Hope the Power 5 doesn't bail on the Mid Majors.
Our 2016 recruits (Milton, Timoteo) will be 5th year Seniors.
Our LDS guys, Mack Richards, Kamuela Borden will be Juniors
Oh and Oregon may have a QB named Tua Tagavailoa

Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
Yeah, these are tense times in college football history. Questioning whether UH has a program at all is a little hyperbolish for now, but I wouldn't be shocked if the non-P5's (or Group of 5 schools) are essentially the new FCS by the time 2024 comes around. UH may be to Oregon what Weber State is to Hawaii right now.
Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
There's a good chance we will not have a team by the end of that three year run. But if we're still around, it will be three very needed big pay days for the UHAD.
I am the one who knocks.
Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
Based on what I read in Ferd's column in this morning's S-A, the 2020 game at Oregon is the "bounty" game, aka bodybag, at $1 million paid to UH, whereas the 2023 and 2024 games are essentially home and home affairs where the home schools provide $500,000 to the visitor. I'm good for that. Oregon is obviously looking to continue their Hawaii recruiting pipeline but that's okay too. At least UH gets a top-tier opponent on the schedule.

Per Ferd in today's S-A, UH at UCLA in 2017 for 6K payday.EITSwarrior wrote:Finally. Would to see UH play Cal or UCLA too.

Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
I'm a true Green UH fan, but I have to disagree with your analogy. Right now, UH is to Oregon as to what Charleston Southern was to Hawaii for their two bodybag games at No-Aloha against the Warriors. 66-10 and 66-7.J-Rod wrote:Yeah, these are tense times in college football history.

Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
I just cannot see UH dropping football altogether. Football is the cash cow in the department. If they fold, the entire department folds. I cannot guarantee things will get much better. The MW is a tougher conference than the old new WAC, and we're not playing 8 home games a season. Really, we can only hope to get back to 7-8 win type seasons and win the Hawaii Bowl. That is a dream scenario compared to what is happening now.

Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
I think Hawaii has won the last three meetings against the ducks. Hawaii added two games against the ducks, one in 1992 and 1994 and won both. They added the Ducks after Pacific dropped football and had to fill those dates. That 1994 ducks team went to the Rose bowl.
Even after UH won those two games and one in 1988 if I remember correctly, The ducks tried to add more games against Hawaii, but UH said no at that time. Back than UH said no because they felt the ducks where recruiting Hawaii to well. Also back than it was a 2 for 1 offer with the ducks offering to come to Hawaii twice.
Now 20 years later, it's Hawaii that must travel to Eugene twice and Oregon has been winning the recruiting battles in Hawaii for some time.
Not sure how adding the ducks helps Hawaii out in the future other than the $.

sounds like you are going to be using a walker to get to the game like the rest of us ...Maui Boy in Alaska wrote:I think Hawaii has won the last three meetings against the ducks.

Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
Why rule us out of these games when its way down the road? Yea if we played this past year or the year before, the chances are we would have gotten smashed. But they can't be dominant forever. FSU and Florida were dominant in the 90s, then years with Tebow for Florida and recently Winston for FSU were good for them. Besides those years, they weren't dominant.....still good teams but not dominant......You never know with sports, thats what keeps it interesting.....who knows if TUA will be the QB Marcus was for Oregon, or will he even end up there.....and Milton could lead our team similar to Colt did for us......you just never know
Re: Warriors will have 3 game series with Oregon Ducks
We are pretty much ruled out because they have a pipeline of talent from southern cal, northern cal, the northwest, Hawaii, and just about everywhere else ...nostra_808 wrote:Why rule us out of these games when its way down the road?

We get the leftovers from the those places and we lose the best we have from home.
There is very little hope that second tier conferences will get any respect. There is a good chance we fade away. But hey, you are correct ... anything is possible.
