NFL Draft Update

Aloha everyone, well sadly none of the Warriors were selected the past three days. This just leaves the one option of tryouts at training camp to sign as free agents.

2012 schedule

Hard to believe that Hawaii added Lamar to the 2012 football schedule. This is the first football team that school has fielded in over 2 decades! While I appreciate the fact that this is one for the win column, this will not do any favors for Hawaii for rankings due to the weakened schedule. I also understand that this is the AD's philosophy towards scheduling, but there are many other schools to choose from ex. Appalachian State, Richmond, Villanova, etc. At least these schools would give Hawaii a shot at some respect from ranking voters. Let me know what your thoughts are on this team!

Draft Guess

T-minus 3 days and counting to Draft Day.
Here are the UH players ESPN has listed as draft choices. Just for fun I'm going to try to guess what round they might get drafted!
John Estes OC (4th round)
Brashton Satele ILB (6th round)
Laupepa Letuli OG (undrafted)
Aaron Kia OT (undrafted)
Fetaiagogo Fonoti DE (undrafted)

Women's Softball Update

The Bow's defeated Louisiana Tech 3-0 to improve their record to 34-11 Overall and 12-0 in the WAC. Congratulations to them on this great season.

Rainbow's Softball

The Bow's are on a tear, The other teams are having trouble keeping the ball in the field! I believe the home run total i saw was 106 for the season so far which is just incredible. The Bow's are ranked 25th in the nation and are 11-0 in the WAC and 33-11 Overall. That sweep of the broncos was a nice addition to an already stellar performance this year. The coach collected win 700 which is also another impressive mark . Keep going at this rate and these ladies could be hoisting a title banner at Rainbow Wahine Softball Stadium (RWSS).

Turtle Bay Webcam

Sorry for the fact that the web cam has been down for so long. Looks like they have been doing something at the resort and have had the camera down during that project. It is supposed to be up sometime this month.

Mahalo everyone and have a great day, Aloha.

Basketball Head Coaching Candidate

ESPN contributor Dave McMenamin reported yesterday that Kobe Bryant's father, Joe Bryant is intending to apply for the opening as head coach of the UH Men's Basketball team. This not only would help in recruiting for Hawaii due to name recognition, but would also give more media attention to the team due to the Kobe connection.

I think that this would be a great opportunity for Joe to return to the NCAA Coaching scene.
