Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits
If he really wants to come to UH, he would sign on 12/15. But he's probably waiting to see what other offers come in. My guess is that he will not sign with us in February.kapakahi wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 5:39 pm https://twitter.com/StephenTsai/status/1470929532597063680

Heard it on the news. He should go with what he thinks is best for him. But with the portal the way it is he can’t sit and wait too long.uhwarriors wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 6:08 pmIf he really wants to come to UH, he would sign on 12/15.

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

With transfer rules the way it is now "committing" only binds a player to a university for the season. Every offseason is now a free agency shi-shi show.

Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits
We are not exactly the gateway to the NFL. So any player that thinks have a shot at the next level would obviously want to start higher up the college food chain. Or move if given the opportunity. The other thing we lack is a stadium. So not having much of a local following does take away some the glory of being a local hero.EITSwarrior wrote: ↑Tue Dec 14, 2021 6:37 pm With transfer rules the way it is now "committing" only binds a player to a university for the season.

Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits
Yep. Feels that way. I say we should recruit someone else. Sure wish we could have gotten a grad transfer in the early signing period.cabanalane wrote: ↑Wed Dec 15, 2021 6:14 am This kind of feel like Hawaii is the back up date to the prom.

Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits
If I had the same physical attributes as this young man I would do the same thing. There was a lot of noise generated by Twitter that got into the local and national press. Dave Matlin did a first good step in talking with the coaches and players. Now they need to come out with a positive statement in how they are addressing the issue, like some of the rumors are unfounded or there was a breakdown of communication between TG and some of the players and its no different than any other program. What would be nice is an announcement that they are hiring a QB coach and using Bo in the booth. UCLA and USC had a mass exodus of players. I think UCLA had 9 starters transfer out.
Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits
What is sad is that the Twitter Space occurred two weeks ago and yet, no public announcement on future plans, and barely an acknowledgement of any problems other than players bringing their gripes out in a public forum, and that it is the players' and former players' fault.shrek2 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 15, 2021 8:55 am If I had the same physical attributes as this young man I would do the same thing.

Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits, Doesn't Sign On Early Signing Date
If Hawaii wins the Bowl game, no doubt Brayden Schager will be the starting QB next year. No guarantees in anything, but you know. So then do we expect AJ to ride the bench? Red shirt and ride the bench until his Junior year? Or transfer portal after his Freshman year?
Yes, it's not wrong to have 7 QBs in the bullpen. As everyone's playing time is one mean sack away.

Re: St. Louis QB AJ Bianco Commits, Doesn't Sign On Early Signing Date
Unless UH signs a scholie QB (or takes new walk-on QBs), there will only be 3 other QBs [1 scholie QB (RS soph. Armani Edden) + 2 non-scholarship walk-on QBs (RS frosh Jake Farrell & Connor Apo)] on next season's 2022 roster besides Schager.....with 3 having departed (CC, Abbott, Uahinui) and 1 (Akina) with no more eligibility left.cabanalane wrote: ↑Wed Dec 15, 2021 12:29 pm Yes, it's not wrong to have 7 QBs in the bullpen.

Maybe we can sign a 2 to play 2 grad transfer in Feb who just graduated and wanted to play a bowl game with his former mates.Irse wrote: ↑Wed Dec 15, 2021 6:19 amYep. Feels that way.
