From the Blogs: Practice, Lane, Corbin, JW

Dave Reardon has a report from today's practice. An excerpt:

Tyler Graunke is running the offense again today with Colt Brennan out with the ankle sprain. Colt is off the crutches, but limping noticably. Nothing’s wrong with his arm, though. He’s tossing the ball around with Ryan Grice-Mullins.

Stephen Tsai reports that Malcolm Lane is the top backup at both wideout positions.

In the meantime, Lane was allowed to take reps at left wideout. The coaches believe Lane deserves more playing time, which is why he was elevated to No. 2 at left wideout.
He also is expcted to be crafted a larger role at right wideout, where C.J. Hawthorne started the first three games.

The Warrior Insider interviews Corbin Brown, who has committed to become a Warrior, pending an official official offer. Here's an excerpt:

Warrior Insider: What was it about Hawaii that made you want to commit?

Corbin Brown:The coaches, the quality of the football program and school, and of course Paradise! But mostly, the fans who have endorsed my abilities, and sent their warm welcome! No where else I went even came close to it.

Right on. And The Warrior Insider interviews a defensive line recruit from Australia named Jesse Williams.

Jessie Williams stands 6 5″, weighs 302 lbs, benches 320 lbs, leg presses 980 lbs and is only sixteen years old. He played basketball as a youth and moved well under the hoop.

So how do you compare Hawaii with your other US Mainland visits?

“During my recent visit to the US Mainland, coaches at BYU were interested, and I have been asked to consider Arizona State as well, but something feels right about UH” said Jesse.

What position do you want to play at the collegiate level?

“As far as I know the coaches from UH are recruiting me for the Defensive line, my preferred position” said Jesse

Excellent.

UPDATE: Sportsbow reports that Williams committed to UH today. Congratulations to Jesse!
