Coach takes charge

It was just after 9:30 a.m. when Greg McMackin strolled onto the field for his first practice of fall camp.

You are so right. I am in Florida visiting my brother and the humidity is horrible here. No breeze....hot and sticky....temp going to the 90's! I cannot wait to get back to the trades.

Obviously it's a huge undertaking to take on the Gators in the Swamp much less the heat & the humidity. It would be really cool if Coach Mack is able to level the playing field with the preparation & hydration. I'm more worried about them having to deal with the commercial flight & the accompanying jet lag. I hope Coach Mack has something to counteract that.

Apparently Mack is super serious about it. He coached at Miami and says they had IV's hooked up to the players and wants to do that at Florida. He says he worries more about the heat and humidity than the travel.

Mack is grossly overapaid. He is not in Florida's league. Gators will be kind and remove their starters after the first quarter.

Alice, you're funny. Coach Mac is getting paid for what he's worth since UH 'thinks' he's worth a million. I think you're overpaid (LOL!).

Mack is way overpaid...an inexperienced president rushed to quiet the fans and paid too much. Everyone on the Mnaoa campus knows that.

Football pays for itself, name one department on the upper Manoa campus, other than sheep cloning that can say the same.

Compared to who? How would you know? You are just a C student at best. Or did you get your information from a customer giving you dollar bills while you danced on a pole.

If coach Mack sucks as a coach, then, yes he would have been overpaid. But the contract isn't over yet, give him the 5 years to show what kind of a coach he is, before making outlandish comments that make you sound like a little whiner that needs to be put in a corner.

Alice, try harder to stay off the drugs.

You forgot about Wahine volleyball, since they left Klum gym, the program has been self sustaining...
...too bad men's basketball has to rely on football too. Bob Nash and Roderick Flemings might be able to change that for a couple years at least...
