UH fan and a Step Brothers fan? I like him already.

UPDATE: Stephen Tsai has more.

Center Kody Afusia of Ocean View High in Huntington Beach, Calif., told the Warrior Beat he has accepted a football scholaship from the Warriors.

"It feels like home," Afusia said of his recently completed recruiting trip to Hawaii. During the trip, he said, he met a relative who also is being recuited by the Warriors.

UPDATE 2 (1/20/10): Jason Kaneshiro profiles Afusia.

"It was awesome," said Lee Afusia, Kody's father. "(Hawaii) was his favorite college since he was growing up. We used to sit up late at night and watch when Timmy Chang was playing.

"Once we got there, along with the atmosphere, the coaches were just great."

Afusia also found out he was related to UH recruit Dave Lefotu on the trip.

"That was a little shocking," said Lefotu, who also took his official visit last weekend. "I didn't even know him and found out he's my cousin."

Lefotu said he remains solidly committed to UH after hearing from California, Oregon, Utah State and Wyoming.
