Dunnachie is "still negotiating"

top ten for Kekoa!

Good morning.

Good morning, DPK and papajoe2.

Good morning to you, Gma, and you too pj2.

Morning to DPK, Papajoe, & gmahoney!

🙂

Good morning everyone!

Good luck to Alex Dunnachie.

Good morning, mo808 and SteveM.

As Scott Robb told me last night “Hey Pomai The sun will rise tomorrow” guess what he was right the sun came up and we have another wonderful day ahead of us. Good morning all!

Morning SteveM, MIH, and Pomai!

Yup, a beautiful morning in paradise! All things are possible!

CG, just be a little more gracious is all. These are real people behind the keyboards here!

Heh, a Grease quoted from the “pro-Warriors” thought from kinoo*. How stupid’ of a Grease.

Greasethinks a Coach Coolen’s controversial comments might very well be addressed in an S-A article today or in one of the other local news sources. Dedicatedfan . . . admittedly, we’ll need more clarity and delineation ’bout what you were addressing about Coolen last night, maybe?

* “here” in the Japanese language.

‘ bakatare in the Japanese language

And koko means “here” in the Japanese language.

So which is true? Bess going to Browns or Bess getting an $11 million contract?

Is deciphering sports a grease never talked about before becoming a grease’s new job finally? Hahahahaha! so cute! So simple! But mistaken.

Let the games begin! For a grease,i hope a new job search proves fruitful. Pity to spend all day here staying in character.

Well. Good morning to you all the same, mo808 . . . and:

• good morning gmahoney (who might be thining a Grease’ll perform the same sacrifice for next Lent; um)

• good morning SteveM

• good morning J.V.Sr. (who had the BEST posts this week).

•good morning madeinhawaii

• good morning Pomai, who provided a decent counter to dedicatedfan’s focus late last night/early this morning

. . . and good morning to a who must be a very yappari Mr. Stephen Tsai, with all those Warriors going over to his Jets, no?

Off blog topic. Mr. Hinshu asks if the power of images we see can prove aliens are among us? Mr. Hinshu also helps other back home in Japan find new jobs. Anyone interested? For example, SPOKESPERSON WANTED!

As much as we all like Iosefa, let’s not get carried away. He is still very raw as a running back. One solid year wouldn’t warrant leaving for the draft. I hope this comment is not taken too critically, but he is the type of bruiser that football coaches and fans appreciate, but talent-wise, I am not convinced he is NFL caliber just yet.

Stephen Tsai:

April 28th, 2013 at 8:27 am

Question: If Joey Iosefa has a big year, do you think he would want to enter the draft early?

Well. If he’s willing to do the “free agency/singing with ________” at the end of three days — as we’ve seen happen with great UH-M Warriors in as much time this past week — a Grease would answer “yes.”

He’s really gotta have the numbers, though. One effective thing about the NFL Network’s coverage is that they were able to amplify stats, especially with regard to the few “who dis player drafted in the first or second rounds” draftees.

Iosefa sorrrrrrrrta’ has a name in NCAA (West?) circles, but, if had this hypothetical (which is a STRONG hypothetical, Mr. Tsai) . . . he very well might’ve ended up as a free agent, anyway; but he would be signed!

Heh. Thought a Grease DIDN’T have a pro-Warrior thought of the day. But there it is. Thanks for the opportunity, Mr. Tsai.

I think it would depend on who Iosefa’s agent is and how much fluff he can spin.

50?

Iosefa isn’t close to being ready for the NFL.

He’s got the body to make it as a FB, but lacks explosiveness to be a tailback plus he has major fumble issues. Joey is big and strong, but so is everybody else at the next level. Jury is still out in Iosefa’s blocking skills, both pass and run blocking.

Also, did you see this year’s draft? Eddy Lacy didn’t go in the 1st round… What does that tell you about how RBs are valued in the modern NFL? Lacy is a beast, but the RB position has been devalued tremendously with the rule changes and the modern platooning of RBs.

Great analysis, Former UH Athlete.

Fomer UH Athlete: Actually they really did this season, we played to more SOLD(pun intended) Out games this season the last. Our average including the away games was 697 if you just include home games it was 811 and that was with a couple of Thursday games. So to not bad.

WHOOOOOOOO-EEEEEE!!!!! The unlikely (yeah, right, “they’re tournament fodder; guess again) Celtics puttin’ on a front. Boston inspired, in more ways than one.

Who won the Super Bowl after 9/11?

That’s right. The (similarly unlikely) Patriots won that.

Coincidence? 🙂

Shoko:

April 28th, 2013 at 9:15 am

I think even if you have a big year then decide to leave early, there’s no guarantee you get drafted. See Stephon Jefferson.

Ah, yes! Terrific citation here.

Shoko, you and FUHA — and a few others here (including the blog host) — have unique sport insight, brilliance, and encyclopedic sports reference. Bravo.

Former Athlete,

“Sure as hell”? Strong negative connotation and disrespect for the student-athletes that work just as hard as football players.

Anyone knows football is way more in demand.

But as a supposed “former athlete” at UH, you should know better to use your words in a more accurate depiction.

Far be it from me to repeat what fans have said to us to compliment the softball program over the past few years as they compare their performances to the other sports they are season ticket holders in. I won’t go there unless you ask me to.

A Grease still am cool.

My limerick ends with, “don’t look now, but, you have a fixation.” Thanks for your fandom.

Go Alex, Go Warrior Alumni!

Men’s volleyball is NOT scraping along. They were inexperienced this year but they played hard and with a lot of heart. Almost half of their matches went 5 games and they got swept only a couple of times. Charlie Wade and his staff are doing a great job with the limited resources they have. Come to the games, join the booster club and attend the booster club functions (e.g., chalk talks, post-game potlucks). They will be better next year.

jm, agree with you on men’s VB. They gained a lot of game experience and never gave up. That much is certain, being in so many 5 game matches. We have a lot to look forward to next season.

Great party there, looks like, SteveM. Ah. Gotta work (M-F for a Grease, uh, despite what some on this board think. Full benefits. Great salary. Even a formula for OT. But, a Grease digresses) . . . thanks all the same.

Grace is God’s divine love given to us.

And we are responsible for responsibly using that gift. Sorry for the “responsible” tautology.

Pomai, #45, What you say is true. But when a starter goes down, their back up needs to step up. Otherwise, what happened on Saturday, happens.

The good news, according to what Kaia Parnaby said, in the Sunday S/A, is that, “I am good to go, there is no way I am missing pitching on my Senior Weekend.” If that is the case, there will be Rainbows all around the RWSS. There will still be joy in Mudville.

Wow!

Walk off suicide squeeze earns a sweep of Stanford for the Dux. Great CBB.

actually this is the future of wahine softball:

University of Hawai’i head softball coach Bob Coolen announced the signing of four prep standouts who will play for the Rainbow Wahine in the spring of 2014. Brittany Hitchcock, Gaylan “Ulu” Matagiese, Heather Morales, and Lindsey Willmon all signed National Letters of Intent to play for the Rainbow Wahine this week during the early signing period.

Hitchcock is a 5-11 pitcher from Westminster, Calif. who is currently a senior at Ocean View High School in Huntington Beach. She has been a first-team all-league player the past three seasons with the Seahawks. Last season, she went 14-6 with a 0.95 ERA in 21 appearances. She tossed five shutouts with 133 strike outs to just 31 walks in 132.2 innings pitched. Hitchcock also hit .411 as a junior (30-for-85) with 17 runs scored and 21 RBI on the season. As a junior, she earned her second Goldenwest League Pitcher of the Year honor while also earning first-team all-CIF Division 4 honors. She has also done well in the classroom, earning scholar-athlete awards for the past two seasons.

“Brittany is a strong down-ball pitcher with good off-speed pitches.” says Coolen. “She will be expected to step right into the rotation and will only get stronger in college.”

Matagiese is a versatile 5-6 athlete who UH will be looking to play three positions—outfield, third base, or catcher. As a Waimea High School junior last year, she hit .679 (38-for-56) with four doubles and six home runs. She also scored 31 runs with 34 RBI and 10 stolen bases. She helped lead Menehune to the DII state championship title and was named Co-Most Valuable Player of the tournament. She has earned all-league honors all three seasons. Matagiese won the home run derby at the USA PREPS Showcase Camp in Palm Desert Calif. earlier this year and has played in several mainland tournaments—as well as the Prague Tournament Cup in the Czech Republic. Her brother, Siasau, is currently a junior defensive lineman for the UH football team and she is a cousin of All-American Jessica Iwata. She is the fourth player from Waimea to play softball for the Rainbow Wahine—including associate head coach Dee Wisneski, Laynie Sueyasu and Ali Rapanot.

“Ulu has a very strong bat and has really blossomed as a hitter. She has home run potential and has great knowledge of the game,” says Coolen.

Morales is a 5-8 power pitcher out of Indio High School in Indio, Calif. Last year as a junior she posted an 11-5 record with a .069 ERA and 117 strike outs in 81 innings pitched. At the plate she has been a juggernaut on offense, she hit .479 (46-for-96) with 40 runs scored with a team-high 62 RBI with 11 doubles and 20 home runs. Morales has earned first team, all-league accolades for the past three seasons and was the MVP of the league this past season. This past season, she was named to two all-tournament teams and was selected as an ESPN Cal State Athlete of the Week.

“As a pitcher, Heather has command of a variety of pitches in her arsenal. She can throw a rise, drop, curve, and change,” explain Coolen. “She is very agile and versatile player who will hit for herself as a pitcher and can hit at the No. 4-to-No. 8 spot in the lineup.”

Willmon is a 5-8 catcher/third baseman out of Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove, Calif. She hit .448 (30-for-67) as a junior with 23 RBI. She also had three doubles, three triples and eight home runs on the season for a .940 slugging percentage for the Eagles. Willmon has been a three-time all-league selection; two-time all-city pick; and was last year’s Most Valuable Player for Pleasant Grove.

“Lindsey has a strong arm and calls a good game and was the catcher for Hitchcock on the SoCal Choppers club team,” says Coolen. “She also plays a solid third base and has a strong bat. She is a confident player who is versatile and can be a power hitter.”

and for 2015 lorena ruiz:

Wow,

Edwards signs with Jets… Dunnachie gonna compete for Jets job… With Pollard already on the practice squad, this preseason is gonna be fun to watch…

Stretch, (if you’re out there)

Is it too early to get people excited about a certain package?

Mahalo, gobows!

2chainz,#88, Lorena Ruiz looks like a huge get for the Wahine. Also, that Aussie pitcher for 2014, according to the Australian National Team HC, is one of the BEST pitchers to come out of Australia in a long time. He also went on to say, if Softball was still an Olympic sport, she would not be coming here, instead playing for the Australian Olympic Team. Another in a long line of Outstanding Australian pitchers to play for the Wahine. When one leaves another comes in to play for the Wahine. Next year will not be a rebuilding year, but just restocking in the Wahine pitching department.

Mechanic, Zamora is a Junior. The 5 Seniors are, Parnaby, Majam, Iwata, Buchanan, and Anquiano.

Oh, heylllll no!

100!

d1: Where you was while Mrs d1 and your boy was workin cleaning da foliage fo da luau? Kickin back ah!

Zamora is a Junior…she returns for 2014.

@ 87… i like Heather Morales for next year…she is gold and can HIT for power! Oh yes, she is also a power pitcher with a fast ball that makes her change-up work…Jennifer Iseri? 2015. As a frosh at Cerritos High she clocked at 2.89–H-1B! Bats and throws L. Right now, she would be the fastest on Hawaii’s team and at 5 6″, she runs like a deer. If she pitches from the circle, wahine have another fielder on the field. Nothing to ignore. Kaia has 15 errors on bunts and struggles with her overhand throw. You can bet, UCSB and Pacific will be bunting on Parnaby if she returns to the circle against them.

Coach Coolen is bringing in higher caliber players and working the rich Southern Calif/Central circuit If he stays consistent, the wahine will be stocked well past his 1,000 victory. But, next year, Hawaii rebuilds, not reloads. Majam and Iwata can not be replaced. They are future Hall of Famers. As fans we know that our batting order has holes…we also know in order to make the annual pilgrimage to OKlahoma City, those holes must be plugged with consistent hitters up-n-down the order that dont KO 33% of the time with staggering LOB figures.

Currently, the wahine have three batters with more BBs than KOs–a standard measuring stick of a good hitter. Majam (37/23), Iwata, (18/17), Liilii ((30/29). Keiki Carlos is close (18/22).

Kelly Majam is a once in a lifetime player. Not only is she a great player, she is a wonderful role model for all of our daughters and an inspiration for all to battle back from adversity with such an outstanding outlook on life due to her faith.

I will always remember her for what she means to this program.

A grease,

Mr. hinshu suggests your new job be with writing perhaps? You like Warriors so much you should write book. But the world of writing there is much rejection. Be prepared for rejection if you attempt new job. When I moved to Hawaii in 1985 plenty opportunities but job market smaller now yeah. So might face rejection if a grease tries to be a writer. 1985 was a good year to Mr. hinshu. Everything in 1985 was better, even music. Mr. hinshu is great fan of Robert Palmer. Does a grease know Robert Palmer?

A few photos from the Spring game.

Mr. Hinshu likes Robert Palmer the singer. Favorite song is addicted to love.

WarriorMojo — thanks for the photos!

Mr. Hinshu wonders if a grease is lacrosse fan too? Mr. Hinshu is great fan of alma mater lacrosse team! go red hawks!

warrior dave…i wholeheartedly agree with you regarding kelly majam. i had the opportunity to chat with her while on a brief hike coordinated by the FCA on Good Friday. what a great person she is!

Please a grease,don’t be upset. Mr. hinshu asks simple questions. I help people find new jobs when they are not fit for the one they have. If a grease doesnt like Mr. hinshu help, then ok. But Mr. hinshu says can find good online sources to help with search for new job. Mr. hinshu doesnt recommend careerchangers.tv though, you can skip that one.

Exactly.

Another ‘Bow. Rejected.

See a pattern qua universàle here?

ST, Who won the Black v. White game? Score? Thanks.

Ok. Never mind. Found the info I was looking for. Since Black Team won, I say the Black team should be the First Team and should take the field against USC. Why would we put the losing team up against USC unless we want to lose.

Black won spring game 27-21. Looks like the two starting wideouts are Chris Gant and Trevor Davis. Both made great catches for TD. Higgins looks like solid No. 2 QB.
