I like it that he thanked Chow. Too many negatives, it's nice to hear positives, anything positive about Chow/the past. No need to bash the past.poidog wrote:Any thoughts on the press conference? did it change anyone's minds? no effect at all?
I felt the speech was personal, from the heart.
No cheerleader type of speech, which would seem fake.
And he did not make any personal promises, or make any promises (like chase championships and NFL).
Talk about the "experience." The college (UH and Hawaii) experience. Not "prepare players for the NFL."
Yes, it did changed my mine. He was #3 on my list. But now I'm all in. UH made the right choice. Go Bows.
If I have to pick on anything....is this.
I'm old, so it's the Rainbow Warriors. Rolo already made several references to "Warriors" only. Not a deal breaker, but I'm old school.

Sounds like he is trying to build a program from the ground up. Sounds good to me. Get people who are reliable, who aren't going to fly by. Get the team to be a functioning unit again. Sounds good to me. He wasn't my first choice but he sounds good.
GO WARRIORS !!! PLAY HARD!!!!

Thank goodness he didn't say that we'll be chasing championships and winning games.

“I have four kids … a lot of Disney movies,” said Rolovich. “We’re watching ‘Lion King’ two years back. I liken us a lot to Pride Rock. We were great once. We can be great again. We can all be Simba. It’s going to take all of us. We all are Simba. Do one thing better today to help this program … and we can be great again. Pride Rock has a chance.”

Not doubting, not hating, not loving, just hoping because I am a fan.

I picked up on that "warriors" thing too, so i guess we will have to see if that ends up being a thing or not. I agreed with everything else you said. I thought it was a successful introduction.cabanalane wrote:I like it that he thanked Chow. Too many negatives, it's nice to hear positives, anything positive about Chow/the past.

Re: LIVE STREAM: Nick Rolovich Introductory Press Conference at 10 am HT
While I liked Rolo saying Hawaii is home but Norm Chow said the same type of thing as well! I not getting sucked into that emotional connection speech/feeling. Rolo says the X&O’s and scheme doesn’t matter it the players unity that wins games. Rolo better hire some high quality coaches that can recruit and know X&O’s to put the players in position to make plays.
Im not worried about the players buying into what Rolo is selling because the ones that are not buying in, will be leaving. Winning will get the players to bond and fight for one another.
Hawaii has been out coached the during he Norm Chow era for many offensive stumbles. So Rolo need to get staff in place that know there X&O’s, because a group of football smart coaches will put the players in position to make plays.
I not letting the emotional press conference of Hawaii is home, soften up my stance that Rolo has to get the sinking ship righted. 1st year honey moon, 2nd year honey moon is over a losing record is still expected. 3rd year better have a winning season and a bowl game. 4th year Bowl game and MW Championship game. Same expectation I had for Norm Chow.

I'm not expecting miracles. He is the lowest paid coach in the MW. I hope he can make us competitive in the conference.
Re: LIVE STREAM: Nick Rolovich Introductory Press Conference at 10 am HT
Norm Chow said it... and then continued to live in Los Angeles. Huge difference there. Norm said that he was happy to "come back home" and Rolo said "I never left". huge difference, in my opinion.WarriorTyme wrote:While I liked Rolo saying Hawaii is home but Norm Chow said the same type of thing as well!

My takeaway from this is that Rolo will use whatever system will be successful here. Norm came in and basically said that he needs to bring in all new guys because the holdover players couldn't run his "X's and O's", so I'm optimistic by Rolo's words and they make sense to me. He's not gonna rationalize 2-3 seasons of losing because he needs to bring in "his guys", or at least that's my hope.WarriorTyme wrote:Rolo says the X&O’s and scheme doesn’t matter it the players unity that wins games.
