Game Week: Utah State - Thursday News

Jason Kaneshiro writes about Greg Alexander getting the start at QB.

"I look at the quarterback position like every position," McMackin said. "I look at it just like our center or our left guard. If a guy's producing, then he plays."

Alexander, a strong-armed passer, and Funaki, the more mobile of the two, present different looks for the Aggies to prepare for this week.

Kaneshiro also talks to Desmond Thomas, who is getting his first start of the season, and notes that Kealoha Pilares is on the travel roster.

Ferd Lewis has an article about logistics and costs related to the trip.

By remaining on the Mainland — the Warriors will spend seven days in El Paso, Texas prior to the nearby New Mexico State game Nov. 8 — instead of returning home between games, UH forecasts a savings of approximately $27,200 for its financially strapped athletic department.

And some great news from Stephen Tsai:

The video strike is over, and Princess Leila, Stanley Lee, Mark Eidson and brother Mike will resume shooting sports videos next Wednesday.

Woot woot!
