Leonard Peters / Hizzo / TC

Stephen Tsai talks to Leonard Peters, about being a guest instructor at the Hawaii Speed and Quickness Clinic, as well as his experience living in New York and trying to make the Jets.
Peters was admittedly nervous when he first participated in team workouts.

"It's a big step in life," he said. "The biggest thing between pro and college football is in college you have four years to learn the system. In the NFL, you've got one day to learn the system. If they don't like what they see, they'll ship you out. In a half hour, they'll have a replacement for you. It's all business now. It's been good for me so far."

In the Jets' defensive system, the safeties are divided into left or right, not strong or free.

"I like that," Peters said, noting the Warriors used a similar system. "The good thing about our defense is the safeties are included in a lot of the packages we run."

Irisheyes.com, or maybe just Scout.com, takes a look at this year's Heisman hopefuls. Here's an excerpt about Colt:
Hawaii must have threw a huge party in the islands when the state found out Brennan was withdrawing his name from the NFL Draft and heading back to school for his senior season. Seriously, what can this guy do for an encore? Brennan tossed a Division 1A record 58 touchdowns and threw for over 5,500 yards. That adds up to 396 yards and four TD’s a contest.

The Warriors went 11-3 in 2006, including a 41-24 victory over Arizona State in the Hawaii Bowl. No matter the numbers, though, Hawaii might have to run the table to give Brennan a realistic shot at winning the Heisman Trophy. The Warriors two toughest games, Washington and Boise State, are both in Honolulu. Another factor that helps Brennan are the returning players back on offense. Davone Bess and Jason Rivers both had 1,000-yard seasons and combined for 25 TD’s. Throw in Ryan Grice-Mullen’s 11 scores and Brennan should have plenty of targets to light up the scoreboard with and compete with last year’s record season.

And will Timmy Chang start for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats this Saturday? Coach Charlie Taaffe is keeping things shrouded in mystery.
"We need to have something happen positive offensively for us."

Just who the architect of that positive offensive action will be won't be known until 7 p.m. tomorrow night.

Taaffe won't tip his hand whether it will be veteran Jason Maas or rookie Timmy Chang who will start at quarterback.

"We'll let everyone know about 7 p.m. Saturday night," he said.
Stay tuned!
