Loved that 1st pic, had a good chuckle to start the morning. Seems like there are a lot more of the Warriors having that “first off the bus” buff look.
Anyone know how the kicking game projects to be this year?

Not sure how it all works out, but it’s interesting that there will be a lot of moving parts. Like the past couple years, the Warriors probably will be in three-receiver sets most of the time. There are a lot of combinations, starting with Marcus Kemp at left wideout. They can play Pedroza wide or in the slot, depending if they want to pair him with Collie, Ewaliko or Barker. They can go speed sets with Stubblefield and Ewaliko. They can go big with Kemp, Barker, Unga and Hagger.
Hey, it’s the offseason. It’s all fun now.

ST #6…All I got from you post is that we’ll be running 3 receiver sets. So basically, same old Chow offense played up tempo. Bummers, I was hoping for a complete change with the new OC implementing more of a spread type. Oh well, Chow will live or die using his offense, glad this will be his last year.

They wear pajamas to workouts?
No matter the receiver sets, if no can give time for the QB to deliver then poho.

Also asked how the kicking game will be this season.
Maybe this time it gets approved?

Pics of 2 interceptions…you remember who the QB was that threw those interceptions…
Maybe a new offensive dude up in the box…. but with same old same old chow mentality…read good..he did not give that up…
Don’t get ur hopes up…he will be around for 2016 season…don’t think he wants to go out with his record…as a loser…but things surely get much better this seson…even with that “killer” front end schedule…

Ran into Anthony Pierce. It’s a sad deal. He has an intestinal ailment that probably will require medication the rest of his life. Good guy. At least he’ll get his degree in about a year.

Jerrell Jackson was in a pic yesterday. I guess if he’s not in a pic today, it means he’s leaving.

Good luck to Anthony Pierce. I guess since he was stricken with this ailment, it means he was shortchanged on his playing time and wanted to leave.

Others have posted that Pierce was shortchanged on his playing time and wanted to leave. I’m just reiterating what others have posted.

The bigger problem last season was run defense. Conversely, our rushing game was below average. So whether its a 3-wide or spread, it won’t really matter. Team needs to execute its offense, especially in establishing a rushing offense the opponent respects. I think this offensive line will get it done.

H-Man, wasn’t Hawaii’s rushing defense top 5 in the MWC?
Looking forward to seeing practice and some games. I hope we go to more pass than run (at least a little more than 50/50) because that will use our talent at receiver and QB the best and it will open up the running game when we do go to it– get back to having 1,000 yard runner and QB and receivers. Make everyone a possible target– running backs can catch, we have a TE that can catch, and we got the slots and receivers. Spread the defense with the pass and run up the middle like some of the hot offenses today.

New uniforms? Does that mean we’re finally getting rid of those awful “butthorns” on the back of the uniform pants? If so that actually improves my outlook on the season considerably. I felt like the team was cursed wearing those things.
