Hey Stephen, what position is “tight”?
Yo, Tsai … are they looking at him as an OL candidate, or will he stay on DL? Seems like he’d make a nice OT.
Welcome aboard, Caden Hilborn.
Prospect for DL, OL, H-Back, Tight End.
C’mon coaches – figure out ways to get Caden on the field, now.
Way to beef up the line. It would great to see a few more interior guys get signed
It’d be nice if he turned out to be the lane clogger we need on the D-Line. Someone to hold the point and blow things up. Mostly, I’m just glad to see that we’re recruiting in the trenches now. That was a bit lacking in the early signing period.
Nice! A BIG athletic guy – we can use him for sure!
Welcome to the Warriors, Caden!
Seventh!
Da Punchbowl Kid-
That is super funny.
It reminds me of the time the halftime entertainment emcee was building up the UH cheerleading squad’s participation in the national cheerleading tournament to such a fever pitch, we thought they won the whole thing. And then the emcee said that they had finished fifth.
The guy next to me shouted: “We’re number five!!! We’re number five!!!”
Keep up the good work coaches. Hawaii looks good now cause they fozen.
If Tago or Atwell aren’t hurt, they should be the replacement for the injured Courtney Middap, right?

in case you want to know….Where to?..???
I hope Rolo/Batoon can get an aggressive “jump the route” intercepting “ball hawk” CB-FS (high school recruit) since they are recruiting South of the Rockies. Need one guy that will “cause pause” on opposing QB’s progressions, especially with more “motors” on the DL. Hoping,
NSF:
unsure if UH would pursue Eletise for 1 year to play – wouldn’t it be better to sign a high school player, train up, and have him for 3 or 4 years?
if all that is said is true of Caden – perhaps we will see another true frosh as the RT as we did with Ilm at LT in 2018? can always move Nuuanu-K back to DT — UH right side needs help to protect against speedy rush end or OLB as we saw in 2018.
just remembered — long time that UH recruited 2 Utah players in the same year.
old slogans: uum good, uum good, ———— is uum good.
: hallo every body hallo, hallo is the shampoo that glories your hair,
so hallo everybody hallo, H-A-L-L-O, I really mean it, H-A-L-L- O
Rolo need to make the decision if adding a one and done will improve the team. If Eletise will make this team better, even if only for one year, you pull the trigger and bring him in. Rolo owes it to the team and the seniors to put the best players on the field .
In basketball and volleyball, there are quite a bit of one and done and those player do provide a boost for that one year and make the NCAA tournament.
It will be a hard decision on both ends because Eletise will want assurance that he will start and Rolo cannot and should not guarantee a start to him.
Beef up DL needs help
Got lots of younglings on OL coming back
Needed help last year at OG
Thankfully he left 🙂

Caden, Welcome to the Warrior Ohana!
Caden could be the best recruit of the class. He got offers from BS U, Utah State and Air Force to name a few. I love this guy already!
Great job by the football staff to steer this young man to UH. I’m excited to watch him and the other recruits do there thing in the next few years.
Go Warriors!
