Re: Hawaii's Dysfunctional Divisions

How do you feel about Damien baseball, which has won two consecutive D2 titles and likely benefitted massively from playing us as well as MPI, KSK, Iolani, and St. Louis in the regular season? Good point - under the rule I've been advocating (and someone else identified as "the Dayton Rule&quo...

Kamehameha on the rise in ILH

What a Spring for KS-Kapalama: conquered the ILH gauntlet in Baseball, took down Iolani in Softball, unseated Punahou in Girls Water Polo, and distancing from Punahou in Boys Volleyball. Something's clicking in Kapalama Heights.

Re: Hawaii's Dysfunctional Divisions

Congratulations to Pac-5 Girls Soccer for winning back-to-back D2 State titles. Outscored their opponents in States by a 19-0 margin. I realize Pac-5 has to overcome many obstacles just to field a team. But it can't feel great for neighbor island schools like Kauai HS and Kapaa HS to get beaten in t...

Re: Run N Shoot Is Back

With that said, give Shoe a chance. You can teach old dogs new tricks. As fans/radio listeners/message board posters, we often hear - the coaches know better ... they do this for a living ... what would it say about the program if the coaches were taking fans' advice. Well, time after time in new c...

Re: Run N Shoot Is Back

TC also had the ballz to try to squeeze the football into tight spaces. Sometimes he hit them and they were spectacular passes/receptions. Was it really "ballz" or questionable decision-making (regardless of outcome)? The foray into NFL camps was brief; the memories of spectacular passes ...

Re: Run N Shoot Is Back

Now all we need is a QB who can break Timmy's record for most int's in a season. The career INT record is unbreakable. It was the perfect storm of: JJ's addiction to the pass (which I loved); JJ's commitment to riding a local boy QB to the record books and Heisman conversation; Extra long leash to ...

Logan Taylor - talk about stepping up and making fans wonder why he wasn't on the field regularly from week 1.

I'd much rather try to find the next Bryant Moniz than the next Max Wittek.
JT Daniels has now lost starting jobs at three different schools - something's not right there.

I actually think Schager's motivation is to prove he's the better QB and to win the game. If I'm Schager, CC leaving is just fine.

Re: Ian Shoemaker is the new OC/QB coach

Are we getting the adequate recruits for his offense to thrive in 2023? Seems like QB2 and under are not a fit :( On offense, there's the Punahou QB commit, the Campbell/St.L WR decommit, and now the Waianae OL decommit. Maybe the plan is to go portal fishing. If you're going to do that, try to min...

Re: Why is the run defense so bad?

You left out Bob Wagner. Agree with what you said other than I think Brayden Schager would have done better under Todd Graham. He looked promising/good last year. He looks horrible this year. T Agree with adding Wags to that list of defensive minds dismissed by UH. I also was excited about seeing S...

Infuriating indeed to UH fans. He is a do nothing turd and worst Governor we have ever had. He also said th...

Re: 2022 Open/D-I Top Ten

Reggie Torres is in year 2 as an athletic director at Kamehameha. I'm sure he has opinions on the direction of the football program there.
