here’s hoping that pu’u-robinson gets immediate eligibility. we need help at de. perhaps he could be the key that allows tavita woodard to play te where he could become a future nfl’er.

he’s fast–but not sure if he ran a world record 400 meter dash by a wide margin at the state meet. must be 200 meter!

zzzzzzzzzzz

Welcome to the Warriors Ewaliko & Pu‘u-Robinson! Happy Birthday Aya!

good morning Tsaikos,

have a great day, good news about the Warriors, you can never recruit too early…well maybe you can…..St Louis O lineman was offered by UH when he was in the 8th grade i believe…but you know what I mean…….

GO WARRIORS

GO WILDCATS

ST,

Didn’t Jordan Pu’u Robinson already redshirt in 2009? And if the

No-Clue-At-All gang turns down his petition, woudn’t he have to sit it out a year?

If Pu’u stayed at WSU and graduated, would he have had two years to play two years? Couldn’t he have played at WSU this year and grad transfer for a year back to UH? I hope NCAA notices that and realizes that the family reason was the driving force behind his transfer…

Morning, everyone!

I swear, these end-of-school-year projects are killing me! What ever happened to taking it easy, “this-is-the-last-week-and-a-half-of-school” approach?

Hmmm… I seemed to have developed an affinity for dashes lately (to go along with my dot-dot-dot’s).

Anyways, good to hear that more and more youngsters are choosing us BEFORE da Mainlanders. Would like to see us as a legit first choice, as opposed to da “well, if no work out, can always come back home” choice. I know there will always be different reasons for getting off of da rock, but, just saying…

And with that, welcome to all future Warriors. Glad that you decided to join our ‘ohana!

Happy birthday, Aya!

Happy birthday to all of our May birthday peeps!

And of course…

Go, Wahine!!!

Go, ‘Bows!!!

Good morning Tsaikos.

Happy Birthday Aya.

Good Morning TSAIKOS!

Morning folks!

If a kid can run the 200-meter dash in 22.49, I wonder how that time translates in the forty. Was watching the Baldwin – Kam Maui game and was hoping to gauge how fast he is, but it was hard discern how quick he runs.

he clocked a 4.59 last year,g

4.59 is pretty quick. Considering record holders in the 200-meter event typically run in the nineteens (mens) and twenty-ones (women), for a kid his age thats impressive.

everyday in an interesting day for da warriors. in 2 1/2 months or thereabouts, we get to see the Coach Chow version of da warriors in game time practice. going be fun.

quick is getting away.

an da Baldwin bugga has been getting away alot.

Go Warriors.

thanks

I would think he would be a good tailback. If he can run and pass that would make him a highly-valued player. Probably needs to bulk up a bit, but he has time to develop physically before he joins the Warriors.

Speaking of a player claiming to be faster than he really is, they also fudge on their height too. He may be 5’11”, but in actuallity he might an inch to an inch and a half shorter.

Happy birthday Aya!

#42 Hahaha ST. That still doesn’t answer who they are? Lol but I understand about rules for certain things…. Just wish we were in the loop.

ralph #54 as Al says is this a commercial?

moring 808 where’s da kope

Welcome to the Warrior Ohana Ewaliko! Sounds like an excellent athlete with a high football IQ. Looks like he could play RB/Receiver/WildCat QB as well as a number of other Defensive positions.

Was talking to David Graves since he working with us for the summer and he said there is some really good rb’s. Don’t know if he ment coming in or already on the team or maybe transferring in……..

Yes he is he’s confident.

Hmmm… Aya is a looker. I thought blog readers were all nerdy, chubby and over 40.

Baldwin does well in many sports but other high schools on Maui are the team to beat in some sports such as girls basketball and wrestling.

I believe Coach Chow met most of the Maui recruits when da warriors were on Maui. I trust his judgement cause I have no clue as to how you judge any recruit. Any kid who can ride bulls and can run away from a bull after riding him has to be fast. If you think one bull no can run, try have him chase you for 25 yds and you find out how fast the bugga go.

He was working with me the other week. Unless he went recently. He hasn’t been with me recently and I haven’t seen him at the shop since.

when Coach JJ was at UH, he offered a scholie to another Maui speedster, but da player declined and signed to play pro baseball. Today that player plays cf for the Phillies.

when Coach Trapasso was relatively new at UH, he offered a walk on to another Maui ball player, but the player declined and went to Fullerton. He now starts for the Athletics as catcher.

I just like the valuable information you provide to your articles. I’ll bookmark your weblog and check once more here frequently. I am reasonably certain I will be informed many new stuff proper right here! Good luck for the following!

Baldwin has always been a powerhouse in all sports. In 1948-49 Baldwin took every sport therein the MIL. If there was a state tourney held back then, the 1974 Baldwin team should’ve been state champs.

One key factor in the increase of neighbor island football talent can be directly attributed to the current state tournament in place. Neighbor island kids have now gotten the exposure to demonstrate their talents against statewide competition.

All too often once Oahu has been exhausted, UH has looked to the mainland for prospects. Nice to see UH cutting their travel time and expense down to neighbor island distances in search of talent.

It looks like UH and Boise State are going to remain conference mates in non-football sports.

Welcome to the Mau’i Warriors!

Whoo-hoo!!!

Gave Al the 100th but ST knocked out the spams and now we are back to 87.

What benefit is there to posting the names of possible transfers while the process is in its nascent stages?

Want to help reach 100, but I got nuthin’ nascent to say… ;|

Hi, all… I’ll just wait to see who’s on the field, no guessing or conjecture. Hope I can catch some summer unsupervised practices. Dang work gets in da way. 😉

good evening gang. hope all is well with you. 99

ok, now the night shift can take over.

Ipu Man, “Hail to thee Maroon and Blue, Alma Mater fair and true”. hahahahhhahaaa

like i said before ewaliko could be a great safety in the nfl.

Koakane. howzit howzit.

Boise is good in what other sport?

hmmm….

Big West to assess Boise StateUpdated: May 15, 2012, 8:03 PM ETBy Andy Katz

The Big West may have indirectly helped keep Big East football together for the short term by reversing its December decision to consider Boise State for membership in all other sports.

Big West commissioner Dennis Farrell told ESPN.com Tuesday afternoon that the conference’s board of directors, including 2013 member San Diego State, have offered the Broncos an assessment tool that they hand out to any potential new members.

“We asked if they have interest in submitting it to us (then) they can fill it and get it back to us and we’ll take it to our board of directors,” said Farrell of Monday’s board of directors and chancellors meeting. “The ball is in Boise State’s court at this point.”

“

”

— Big West commissioner Dennis Farrell on Boise State

Farrell said he expects a decision from Boise State by July 1.

The Broncos have to find a new home for the rest of its sports programs after the WAC was nearly gutted after defections to the Mountain West conference, Sun Belt and Conference USA left the WAC with only four remaining members for 2013 — Denver, Seattle, New Mexico State and Idaho.

Boise State has had dialogue with the MWC about staying in the league instead of leaving next year. The MWC would like to have Boise State and San Diego State remain for a 12-team league, according to multiple sources, instead of sending the respective football programs to the Big East.

San Diego State accepted an invitation to put the rest of its sports, including its nationally-ranked men’s basketball program, in the Big West in December. But Boise State, which is out of the Big West footprint that includes only California and Hawaii, wasn’t invited.

The Big East desperately needs Boise State and San Diego State to stay in football for 2013 to help its national profile. The conference also needs two schools to fill the basic need of scheduling for the remaining football members (Louisville, Connecticut, Cincinnati, Rutgers and South Florida) to go along with 2013 all-sport members Memphis, Temple, SMU, Houston and Central Florida. Navy joins the Big East in football in 2015.

College football is moving away from an automatic qualification status for the BCS in two years. The new members would be able to compete for the Big East AQ in 2013. But losing Boise State and SDSU would hurt the Big East’s attempt to negotiate a higher rights fee when its television contract is up in two years.

All of these moves are fluid, considering Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich has told the Big East the Cardinals would rather be in the Big 12 if offered and UConn wants to be in the ACC, according to multiple sources. But as of now, neither conference has extended nor has plans to deliver an invitation to either party, respectively.

That’s why the Big West’s decision to take a chance on Boise State and increasing costs is a bold move. The Big West, which will lose Pacific to the WCC next year, is now an all-bus league, save the one trip every season for each school to Hawaii (which is joining the MWC in just football, but arriving in the Big West in all sports this fall from the WAC).

Farrell said he spoke with Boise State president Bob Kustra on Tuesday and he was receptive to the possibility of the Big West.

“I think he was encouraged that there was an openness to this,” said Farrell. “He was pleased we didn’t slam the door in his face.”

Farrell said this is still a long way to go, but now it’s in play. The cost issue is something all Big West members would have to address but were willing to do so going forward.

“We’re looking at this from a broad landscape right now,” said Farrell.

Farrell said the Big West was willing to stay at 11 when it added SDSU but that was because the Aztecs were within the state. When Pacific left for the WCC, the league was content to be at 10 members. Farrell said if Boise State were added the league would probably go to 12.

Denver, Seattle and Cal-State Bakersfield would be interested, although sources said Seattle and Denver as private schools would rather be in the WCC but may not have a choice right now. NMSU and Idaho would have issues with what to do with their football programs.

Farrell said there were conversations with Boise State in December when SDSU was being added.

“But the timing wasn’t right for us to go beyond our footprint,” said Farrell. “They had other options at that point in the WAC.”

Now, with the WAC falling apart, the timing is right for Boise and the Big West. And if it happens, it might save Big East football for the short term.

and helping Hawaii too. jmo

bhf2 no this explanation still shows how UH benefits
