Sounds like possibly a new verbal commit.....probably a JC OLineman or DLineman.

The large majority of recent scholie offers have been made to JC prospects within the past month (ever since the NCAA limited entry into the transfer portal to just graduate transfers until December 2022) primarily targeting specific recruiting priority positions (OL, WR, DL, hybrid DE/OLB, and CB).

Former Nevada SB (who is familiar with Timmy & Sheffield along with some UH staff members who came over from Nevada) has now entered the portal as a December 2022 graduate transfer (from Colorado State) with 2 to play 2 (after deciding to leave the Rams after playing in 3 games in order to redshirt this season). Is the younger brother of former UH SB/WR Melquise. Was offered by UH (under Rolo) back in 2018 out of Gardena Serra HS (Gardena, CA.). With Melquise & Melquan both offered by UH in 2018 as SBs, rumor back then was that the brothers purposely chose different schools to avoid competing against each other for playing time.

Stovall was one of a handful of players who came over from Nevada with Norvell after last season and was the starting slot wide receiver for the first three games, beating out (Dante) Wright, who was previously a three-year starter for CSU prior to the new coaching staff arriving.

The California native has 121 catches for 1,170 receiving yards and one touchdown in his career. He has an older brother, Melquise, who is a wide receiver at Pitt and previously played at Hawaii.

“I’ve known Melquan [for] a long time,” Norvell said. “In this day and age in college football, these kids have so many choices. They have a short time to play, they want to be in a certain situation to play, it wasn’t quite what Melquan was looking for. He’s got two more years of eligibility. He wants to take this year off and take his chances playing in another program.

Whereas Lefau's fellow Kahuku HS '23 teammates (Kainoa Carvalho, Brock Fonoimoana & Leonard Ah You) took official visits to UH during the Summer (after receiving official UH scholie offers).....dunno quite how to interpret his intent.....'cuz it kinda comes off as a SOUR GRAPES comment....coming from the State's top-rated 2023 HS prospect with multiple P5 offers maybe because he still wasn't offered an official UH visit (after already earlier eliminating UH from consideration). Hmmmm.....
