Kalilimoku Back

Brad Kalilimoku has completed the circuit and is now back at inside linebacker.

He was the No. 1 strong safety in training camp before aggravating the hamstring injury.

On Tuesday, Kalilimoku was moved to outside linebacker, a position he played as a freshman in 2004, when the Warriors used a 4-3 defensive scheme.

On Wednesday night, Glanville asked — and received — permission from head coach June Jones to move Kalilimoku back to inside linebacker.

"He's a hell of a player," Glanville said. "When I put him right back (at inside linebacker), he had a grin from ear to ear. He doesn't have to learn the outside anymore. On the inside, he's a starter. I had an easy job. I replaced one starter (Elimimian) with another starter (Kalilimoku)."

If UH ever needs a utility player on defense, Brad is the one to call! He'll be starting corner for Boise, watch.

Speaking of Boise, they absolutely destroyed Oregon State 42-14 last night. The score is much closer than the game was, if you can believe that. Talk about getting manhandled. This BSU game in a few weeks will be a tough one. But I have confidence!

The Scout Bowl was held yesterday, which gave an opportunity for the UH scout team and redshirts to go all-out in a full-contact scrimmage. Here are some highlights from Jason Kaneshiro's article

Quarterback Inoke Funaki connected with freshman Greg Salas for a 30-yard completion down the sideline and later hit Mitch Farney for a 35-yard gain.

Among the highlights for the defense was sophomore safety Kirk Alexander's interception, which he then lateraled to Rice.

Cornerback Keenan Jones and receiver Antwan Mahaley engaged in a personal duel that included several pad-popping collisions as Jones tried to jam the 6-foot-4 Mahaley at the line of scrimmage.

The scrimmage ended with defensive lineman Nathan Russell, a sophomore transfer, storming into the backfield to sack Brogan.

"It was really exciting," the Waianae graduate said. "A couple of times I came really close, and when the opportunity's there you have to seize it."

The Warrior stars of the future!
