Vid, Greg Salas, Veni Manu

Chawan's compilation consists of one story from KGMB's Mike Cherry, who takes a look at the UH defense.



Brian McInnis profiles receiver Greg Salas.
"I think he was a little too laid-back (last year), which is kinda his personality," offensive coordinator Ron Lee said. "I think he's beginning to understand what it's all about as far as practice, preparation.

"As far as understanding, the route-running, he's so far along," Lee added. "He's gonna have a huge year - I really feel this will be a breakout year for him."
Stephen Tsai writes about Mililani defensive end Veni Manu, who committed to UH yesterday. Mililani coach Darnell Arceneaux has a lot of praise for him:
"He's a man already," Arceneaux said. "I'm blessed to have a couple of kids like that. They could be playing college football right now, at least competing with those type of student-athletes. (Manu has) the build and he's learning the game. That's the part you like to see. He doesn't just use his size, he uses his techniques. He's very fundamental. He's only going to get better when he gets around the UH coaches."
Jason Kaneshiro has more praise from Arceneaux.
"He's not very flashy in what he does, he doesn't need all the glamour, he's an old-school throwback. He just puts his pads on and goes out and plays football. He's a very coachable kid, always looking to learn more about the game.
"He's a leader by example, and when he speaks all the kids listen. He's just a great kid and I'm glad things are working out for him."
