Draft Recap, Cuts

Here's a CC compilation of last night's news from KHON, KGMB, KFVE and KITV recapping the draft. Robert Kekaula has an interview with Jason Rivers in there.



Stephen Tsai talks to Coach McMackin about having to make cuts this week.
"It's a tough thing," McMackin acknowledged. "You're dealing with people's dreams."

The NCAA limits Division I-A teams to 105 players during training camp, which opens in August. The active roster may expand on the first day of instruction. UH's fall semester begins Aug. 25.

But the Warriors probably would be able to add only 13 more players because of limited locker-room space.

McMackin said cut players not added to the roster nor transferring will be allowed to try out for the Warriors next year.

"They need to find out what they need to work on to make the team," McMackin said. Being cut does not have "to be a forever thing."

Daniel Libre was once one of the players cut after spring practice. Libre worked his way back, and now he is listed as the co-No. 1 running back.
