Honolulu -Hawaii’s football team remains a nationwide leader in one category. It is spring practice before spring.
UH practiced the 15th of 15 assigned to the Clarence TC TC Chin Athletics Complex on Monday morning and built it based on the promising finale of the 2024 season, a campaign that reached the goal of the Rainbow Warriors. I’m trying to do it.
Timy Chang said that the timing of Spring Ball was determined by the lack of participation in UH’s bowl game ahead of almost everyone in FBS. Quarter back.

“Last week in August (before the openford on August 23), we would like to make sure we kick at that point,” said Chang after two hours of practice on Monday. I talked. “So, the daily process with these people.”
Well, we will practice with the chin complex on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and end the official activities (until autumn) in the spring game on March 8.
Chang was given a one -year rollover by the provisional movement director, Lois Manin, in December. In other words, he entered the 2025 season in two years in a contract.
In this spring session, some new voices came to the front.
Anthony Arkennea, a coach of the running back, a former Centurui school teammate at Chan’s St. Louis School, who joined the UH staff in 2024, was promoted to an attack coordinator on Friday.

“My relationship with him was very good for many years,” said Chang. “He now has the role of leadership, has a voice, and has confirmed that everyone is responsible for what to do by attacking.
“He confirms that many things in my blind spot do.”
Chang said that Arceneaux would continue to be operated from the booth with the other three coaches during the game. By the beginning of the second season of 2023, Chan has taken over the perfect play call obligation of the UH by the UH’s complete implementation of the modern run -and -shoot attack.
Cade Socha, who joined UH as an attack analyst in Chang’s first season, grew up to fill the coaches of other quarterbacks in Morrison.

I said it would be. Assignment of 4 games of red shirts. “The D -line will not reach me because the ball will put out faster, which is a great emphasis on us.”
In particular, AlEJADO regains some weapons after the Nick Cenacle and Dekel Crowdus have announced their intentions to leave the program and then withdrawn their names from the NCAA transfer portal. Yeah, there is a top three receivers, returning to another go -from (Cenacle 721, Ashlock 629, Crowdus 402) and touch -down (Cenacle and Ashlock Six, CrowDus 4).

Alejad said he was grateful for the frank approach of Arkeno.

On the ball defensive side, the player’s leadership is expected from the safety peterer manma, the nickel back Elija parmer, and the line backer Jam Ortis.
On Monday, he has returned to Virdel Edwards II, a corner back that started all 11 games he played in 2023. He rehabilitated everything in 2024 as an additional coordinator, Dennis Therman, as an additional coach.
