Re: New OC Thread

Sacramento State is killing it in the transfer portal? LOL...Well, I guess one day we could aspire to become as good as Sacramento State? Wait, isn't Sacramento State an FCS (Div 2) team? One could compare us to UNLV. FCS SacSt got $50 Mil in NIL and a 21K stadium. We struggled vs one of the worst ...

Re: Decline interest in Football?

Does Hawaii participate in things like Ticket Hub? Next year will be a make or break year. My bet is that we'll break some expectations. Well that's up to those who promote. PROMOTE the PROGRAM! - UH and SeatGeeks works together where season ticket holders can resell their tickets. On non-popular ...

Re: Decline interest in Football?

Casual local fans want to see winners and exciting offense. They rather watch St Louis Kahuku, Mililani if on the same day as UH games.

Unless the Hawaii scores often, student rarely stay past the 3rd qtr.

Re: Scholarships and the TP

So far we got 3 HS Oline for 2025.
Seriously need atleast 3 JC or Portal transfer to fill the need. Hopefully Faavi got some recruiting clout outside of Hawaii. Can't expect Chris Brown, Reinbold, Ursua & Socsha to do all the recruiting

Re: Maybe UH Football should drop to FCS and....

I agree, TG did not dismantle the program. His departure left us in a challenging predicament that was ultimately addressed. Dismantling sounds a bit melodramatic. Norm Chow on the other hand....DESTROYED whatever momentum we gained during the JJ and Coach Mack eras. Yes TG dismantling the program ...

Re: Maybe UH Football should drop to FCS and....

Correct me if I'm wrong , FBS teams get 85 scholarships FCS gets 63 that's 22 less scholarships for men! According to Title 9 it's a 50/50 split in scholarships for men and women. So wouldn't you need to cut 22 women's scholarships to be compliant? So which womens sports do you cut out? Most FCS ...

Re: Maybe UH Football should drop to FCS and....

I agree with a lot here, but just asking, have the NCAA "ask" UH to step down from D1? If UH is still at the Adults Table, there is no reason to go to the Kids Table. UH is not alone, as I'm sure other schools are feeling the same pressure with $$$. When we look at schools with no limit, maybe D1 ...
