Lane, Kepoʻo, Ankles, AJ, Jesse, Etc.

Billy Hull and Dave Reardon talk to Malcolm Lane about playing both left and right wideout positions.

For Lane -- a guy in just his second season in this offense -- a switch to the other side of the field isn't as easy as it sounds.

"It's a little awkward, but I am picking it up more and more every day," Lane said. "I've never ran routes on the left side."

Lane said he's comfortable with knowing the play calls. It's more the little things he needs to practice.

"It's just running routes and turning one way while turning my head the other way," he said.

Also from the article:

• Kiran Kepoʻo is recovering from a bicycle accident


• Larry Sauafea sat out with an illness


• Blaze Soares suited up but did not practice


• 31,000 tickets have been sold so far

Stephen Tsai talks to Colt about his ankle. And in practice reports from today, both Tsai and Reardon report that Colt isn't practicing again. So it looks increasingly unlikely that he'll be playing against Charleston Southern. Jason Rivers is not practicing either.

UPDATE: Brennan did practice in limited action today, and it'll be a game-day decision whether he plays or not.

But in better news from Tsai's article:

• A.J. Martinez has resumed practicing after recovering from his offseason snowboarding accident.


• UH finally got a usable Charleston Southern game tape.


• Malcolm Lane is profiled.

Dave Reardon talks to Colt about the last time he had to sit out with an injury.

"I had a really bad concussion as a kid," Brennan said yesterday after the Warriors' practice. "I was throwing up. I was taking too many shots to the head."

Brennan was 14, in his final year of Pop Warner youth football before advancing to high school ball.

The Warrior Insider has an interview with soon-to-be Warrior Jesse Williams. Here's an excerpt:

Warrior Insider: Do you have anything you want to say to the thousands of Warrior fans?

Jesse: Just like to thank Hawaii for this great opportunity, and I will do my best to uphold the Warrior name on and off the field.

Welcome Jesse! UPDATE: This link to the interview no longer works. Hopefully it'll be back up later.

And finally, in other sprained ankle news, former UH linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa talks about recovering from his ankle injury and hoping to get back out on the field for the Rams.

Linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa took part in practice on a limited basis Wednesday, spurring hope that he'll be able to play in the St. Louis Rams' game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"I see myself on the field," Tinoisamoa said. "I feel good, but we'll see how the coaches see it. I had a good practice today, but we'll see how it goes."
