Woops

Remember how I said not to ask Colt Brennan silly questions during his live chat on Wednesday? Well, I apparently wrote some silly questions for Nate Ilaoa on another post and Stephen Tsai actually passed them along to him. Here are the questions along with Nate's answers.

Reader “Tombo” to running back Nate Ilaoa:

Tombo: “When are you gonna release your freestyle mixtapes?”

Nate Ilaoa: “Pretty soon. That’s always going to be my answer.”

Tombo: “And you gotta rap on next year’s Colt (Brennan) for Heisman DVDs."

Nate Ilaoa: “Uh, no. I’m graduating.”

You can read the rest of the post for actual football-related questions and answers from other players. Sorry Nate. Thanks Stephen for asking it though. Every UH football fan should definitely check out The Warrior Beat (née "Tsai's Matters") every day for insights, quotes and cool stuff like this. And Nate Ilaoa will get to answer real football questions next week because Stephen will be hosting another live chat with Nate as the guest of honor. Be there!

And here's some stories from this morning that I couldn't get to because of the billy goats:

Dave Reardon profiles offensive lineman Tala Esera.

Stephen Tsai talks to June Jones about his wish to have a couple coaches recruiting full time on the mainland.

Both articles state that Brashton Satele will be out a couple weeks because of a pulled hamstring. Other news and notes are in both articles.

And finally Jaymes Song has a preview of the Nevada game.

"This is like revenge. Last year we had opportunities to win the game. We blew it. We don't want the same thing to happen," said Warriors receiver Davone Bess, the NCAA leader in receptions with 7.75 a game. "They came back and played in our home bowl. Some of us are taking it a little personal."

Bess, who has 31 receptions for 360 yards and three touchdowns, said earning a win is crucial for Hawaii to stay in the hunt for the WAC title.

"We're not counting ourselves out. Anything can happen. That's why it's called the wacky WAC," said Bess, who had a 171-yard receiving performance against Nevada last year.
