He can have his fish and poi...pipi kaula, lomi salmon, extra large lilikoi...oh, yeah.

Is he a high school recruit? If so, he can be coached. He looks pretty darn good to me. Welcome.

A mountain of a kid...you can't teach size. May still be growing.

He will have coaching to clean up technically...has a quick burst and power at point of attack. I'll bet he's a OG or C bc lack of good feet. Welcome to Warrior Nation.

Just because he is Poly does not mean he is "local." Bean & Rice, and dance the Salsa may be more his thing.

So maybe he may trim down a bit.

Nobody likes Outback Steakhouse. At least on the mainland. For the same money, or tad bit more, you get can much more better.

I see ASU and SD offered T, yet he choose Hawaii.That says a lot of the recruiting efforts of Hawaii's O-line coach and coaching staff. Other schools may have better window dressing, ranking (SD currently 24th), and be closer to home yet he choose Hawaii which says a lot of his commitment to Hawaii. Of the film I looked at, I can see T carrying out his block until the whistle blows(sometimes driving his man down field). He looks to have a lot of energy and passion, traits that cant be taught. The other intangibles like technique (currently high, I agree) will come with maturity, strength and conditioning and coaching. Good get.

His tape looks like scenes from the movie Blind Side. It looks like he also plays some rugby so he must be doing a lot of running which this offense needs.

Oh wow, lau lau. I was just quoting a song about a big boy. Clearly, he is not Hawaiian. ;-)

Must have some relation to former Rainbow and Pittsburgh Steeler DL. I think maybe his dad's brother
