Odds and Ends

>> Harvey Fialkov of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel writes about the Samoan culture in general and the four Samoan Dolphins in particular, with a bonus Reagan Mauia video interview next to the article.

>> Former UH quarterback Nick Rolovich is giving it one last shot in pro ball. It's a great article. Good luck Rolo!

>> UH athletic director Herman Frazier responds to Colt's comments regarding the facilities and parking situation... by laying the blame at the feet of the players. Way to support UH yourself, Herm. To the national media, no less.

>> Matt Hayes of the Sporting News ranks the Top 5 players in college football at each position. He ranks Colt as the #2 QB.

Quarterback:

1. Pat White, West Virginia

2. Colt Brennan, Hawaii

3. John David Booty, USC

4. Brian Brohm, Louisville

5. Andre Woodson, Kentucky

The breakdown: You say White can't fling it, I say just watch. Besides, with his dual-threat ability, there is no bigger game-changer in the game today. I'd love to see Brennan play two or three big-time BCS teams, but the Hawaii schedule is putrid. I know everyone is gaga over Brohm, but I want to see him 1.) stay healthy, and 2.) carry his team in a big road game.
