When are you Islanders going to speak on your Little League team? I am on mainland and I have been rooting for them. Great job by those kids.

Anyone took a look at the UH schedule if they play like they did yesterday they have a legit chance to be 7-0 going into the BYU game.

My reasoning was simple: this year's team has 40 new players (or approximately 40% of the roster), meaning this is rolo's recruits, and Chow's players are pretty much gone. Anyway, let's not get to carried away, because this was only the first game of the year (albeit much more exciting than anything we saw in the previous years). WTH GO BOWS!

They should have booted out that loser Norm Chow a long time ago. The Run and Shoot is the only way UH can make a statement in today's football games. Low turn out and low attendance is the driving force for more exciting games as in the June Jones era. Rolovich was correct in bringing it back and as a result in their convincing win over CSU even though they were under dogs with a 14 point disadvantage. In addition the Run and Shoot spreads the defense all over the field, combined with a quarterback that can scramble, makes that offense highly dangerous for any opponent, which appears to be the case in this game. I lost interest in watching UH games, but have a change of heart this time around.

He was behind Dru Brown but keep in mind since Chow they were in a different offense now the run and shoot is back even tho if UH loses at least now they have an exciting offense again. Just not sure why Rolo didn't bring it back when he got hired since he played in this offense? Learn as you go I guess.
