If we can get schaffer , him and jespersen could be four year starters.
I've seen schaffer play live, he's a player.
I really like the players nash is looking at.

I just heard on the bobby curan show that the basketball team is losing a lot of seniors this year...nash and the coaching staff have to pick up a lot of scholarships to give out, hopefully they'll get some top recruits now that they had a whole season under their belts.

LOL I've played against Humberto Perez. Had no clue we were recruiting him, or that he was being recruited period.

I caught a portion of Jeff Portnoy's show on AM 1500 this morning. Jackson Wheeler was on. Jeff mentioned that UH had two foreign recruits here on a visit last week, and they're being sought by big time programs. He could not give out the names. Perhaps the Pensacola JC guys in Sportsbow's list?

It was the Pensacola Jc recruits. I wouldnt say big time programs. South Florida offered Parghalava in the fall. He had a average season and his paperwork didnt go thru in time and they told him to look for a new school. Rutgers is recruiting Balocka but hasnt offered yet. Balocka looks like hed be a big pick up for us but we may need to offer both to get him. Brandon Adams of Diablo will visit this weekend. 6-6 swingmen who is being recruited by Nevada too i think. Probably best athlete we are after on paper.

If Coach Nash is able to recruit a least one player in the top 200 high school prospects that lone recruit will make Hawaii's recruiting class of 08 successful. There a lot of players on that top 200 list that are still undecided.

SJRC,

I think the player that may qualify for what you are looking for is McCoy. He would definitely be a nice get.

I hope we get Balocka, he sounds like a good player. I don't care for Lasha though, I heard he has problems when defenses key on him.

I'm not sure if McCoy is top 200 but he is a 2008 Mcdonald's All-American nominee for the state of Oregon. I'm wondering if coach Nash will give some local boys a chance like he did last year. here are a few suggestions:

Cheynne Lishman-Kalaheo
Mike Makinano-Campbell
Taylor Mounts-Iolani
Kameron Steinhoff-Punahou
Stevie Austin-Moanalua

I have a new #1 now on my recruit list.... but odds are this guy signs with the Salukis..... hed be a huge start to build a team around though...
Balocka
Hale
Adams
McCoy
Gutierrez
Watson

Those 6 would be a great class..... Havent seen any Centers that caught my attention worth recruiting.
