"I wanted the flashy facilities and uniforms, to play in a big conference with all the recognition. My parents set me straight and reminded me of when I was 10 watching from the stands. Playing for something much more. Playing for Hawai'i." // Solomon Matautia #NoNeedLeave

An Ode to Colt Brennan.

Today marks five years since his passing.

Wrote about the influence he had on me as a QB, a person, and how the uniqueness of what was going on out there in the Pacific from ‘05-‘07 shaped my now very untraditional love for college football.

WNBA generated an estimated of $200-$300 million in 2025.

UFC generated an estimated $1.5 billion in 2025.

WNBA minimum salary is now $300 k, UFC’s starter contract is 12k to show, 12k more if you win.

The highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Saturday night was not my night. Sorry to all my family, friends and fans that I have let down. Shout out to Olivera for doing his thing. All class so nothing but love to him. No excuses from this side and there never will be. I’ve been here before I know the work I need to do to get back to where I wanna be. We are far from done. See you guys at the top. #blessedexpress

I'm gutted anytime Max loses. But getting dominated is demoralizing. Gotta come back stronger.

Been thoroughly impressed with Matt Elliot. If only he could tap into private funding from a couple billionaire residents, we'd be golden.

At the NFL Combine's Specialists Showcase, it was leg day for Japan's @kan08sei.

[HAWAI'I @DefendPrideRock]

We all know we failed to capitalize on June's pinnacle of success in '07 and have since watched others schools pass us by. 100% agree the time is now to take that next step. But it starts and ends with public and private funding. College ball is money game. Let's get that bag. 🫡

[Michael Lasquero @MichaelLasquero]

Rep. David Alcos asks #HawaiiFB HC Timmy Chang if the financial support will keep local talent home and sellout stadiums like in the past.

Chang: “As you see the momentum…I think it’s only going to get better…the time is now as the landscape of college athletics is changing.”

"I pride myself on letting people know that I played at UH and we we have some ballers" - As former Hawai'i linebacker Jahlani Tavai approaches Super Bowl LX on Sunday, the Patriots linebacker quickly went from answering a question about remarkable journey to making a prideful recruiting pitch for the Rainbow Warriors https://t.co/2xAVb2QdYM #HawaiiFB #GoBows 🤙🏽 @HawaiiFootball #NFLHawaii #Patriots #SuperBowlLX @khonnews @khon2SportsTV

[HAWAI'I @DefendPrideRock]

@MichaelLasquero @HawaiiAthletics It seems totally reasonable for that fee to be increased to $100... back in 2019.

[Michael Lasquero @MichaelLasquero]

The University of Hawai’i Board of Regents will vote on a number of fee proposals at its Manoa campus on Thursday.

On the sports side of things, there are no current plans to raise the student-athletic fee, which is currently at $50 per semester and has not increased since 2011.

31,000 seats and 28 suites sounds much better than 22,500 and 10 suites. Let’s hope they can get it done. #HawaiiFB

Former University of Hawaii linebacker Jahlani Tavai is headed to Super Bowl LX as the Patriots beat the Broncos 10-7 on Sunday to claim the AFC Championship. In the victory, Tavai recorded 1 tackle. In his 7th NFL season the former Rainbow Warrior will get to play on the sport's biggest stage on February 8th in Santa Clara, California ▪️ For more Hawaii sports coverage 👉🏽https://t.co/712GrnGRhd 🤙🏽 @HawaiiFootball #HawaiiFB #GoBows #Patriots #SuperBowlLX #NFLHawaii @KHONnews @khon2SportsTV

Been impressed with Elliot diving right in and getting his hands dirty. Seems to understand and navigate through proper public and private channels to pursue funding. Hoping he can get the ear of some deep pockets around the state.

[Matt Elliott @UHAthletics_AD]

This is Our Team, Hawaiʻi's Team.

In the changing landscape of college athletics, our goal is to put our student-athletes in a position of success, bring pride to our state, and drive economic impact.

Our award that goes to the Head Coach who was not recognized by their conference but we feel was most deserving of recognition for their fantastic season!

CONGRATS TO @HawaiiFootball HEAD COACH TIMMY CHANG!

[HAWAI'I @DefendPrideRock]

We've done a good job reloading the skilled positions from the portal.

Now we need to reload the trenches. Would love to see some experienced OT and DT/NG signees.
