Yes, after you experience the party that is “Football Family Festivus” this Saturday, you’ll be itching for another scrimmage. The Warriors are listening. Nick Rolovich said the Warriors will end spring training with another scrimmage on Thursday, March 23. But, sorry, this scrimmage will not be accompanied with the Festivus-related activities. That 15th — and final — spring practice will begin at 7 p.m. There will be no admission charge for the scrimmage/practice (although there is a parking fee because […]

For Saturday’s Football Family Festivis — the annual spring fling — Nick Rolovich is considering suiting up and playing quarterback for a series in the full-contact scrimmage. Should he?

The rule of solving any puzzle is to start with the corners. And after taking double hits the past three seasons — Jerrell Jackson and Barry Higdon left after the 2014 season; Ne’Quan Phillips and Nick Nelson departed after 2015, and Jamal Mayo and Jalen Rogers graduated in December — the Warriors have done a good job rebuilding the corners this spring. There are 10 corners on the spring roster, although Tyrus Tuiasosopo is tending to personal matters and will […]

Defensive end Jamie Tago is suspended from participating in spring practice because of a violation of team rules, coach Nick Rolovich confirmed today. It has not been determined when Tago will be permitted to rejoin the Warriors. Tago, who initially played for the Warriors in 2014 and 2015, is considered one of the top prospects of their 2017 recruiting class. Tago joined the Warriors in January. The other mid-year transfers have benefited from the Warriors’ earlier spring training. Wideout Marcus […]

But Nick Rolovich said “it likes he’ll be OK,” although Allen probably will be held out of contact drills for the rest of spring practice. That will open the way for tackles Matt Norman, Kingjames Taylor, Austin Webb and Chris Posa to get more reps. > The Warriors are trying the hit method on quarterback Cole Brownholtz. […]

Walter Gouveia’s simple life did not begin simply. He was the best player on a Farrington High basketball team that was coached by local legend Bob Ikehara and won consecutive state titles in 1959 and 1960. He was talented enough to receive an invitation to join one of the Harlem Globetrotters’ touring groups … as a high school senior. But then Gouveia met the woman who would become his soulmate. They married, and then raised five children on the Leeward […]

Another spring practice, another appearance by a former Warrior great. This time it was “Mighty Mouse”— Chad Owens — who gave the post-practice pep talk. The quarterbacks had a throwing contest in which they aimed for the trash bin. Nick Rolovich gave it a shot. > Rolovich video At the end of practice, there was the gauntlet drill used at combines. A player runs the width of the field while catching passes from each side. The running backs won, thanks […]
