Hercules – you think? Villa and Avea no doubt amongst the best. But Fotu? He got in foul trouble against Iolani because he was guarding Hogland and probably for the first time all season he was up against another player with skills and height. I’m a Kahuku fan, but let’s call it like it is. Kahuku wouldn’t have “pounced” on Iolani if he didn’t get in foul trouble. He got in foul trouble BECAUSE he didn’t know how to handle Iolani. But PROPS to him for coming back into the game ready to PLAY. That showed what kind of player he CAN be. And are the Kahuku coaches awesome? Sure. But there are a lot of awesome coaches in both the OIA and ILH. But that being said, easy to he awesome coaches when you’re coaching studs. LET’S KEEP IT REAL.

Samuta jessiya and fotu are the best in the state at their respective positions. If fotu played the whole game without foul trouble they woulda pounced iolani. Their better than every fan in the ilh and their coaching is better than any coach as well

@SMDH, and yet after all of your opinions, you are unable to prove me wrong. LOL.

Maybe take a night class? Amazing how so many new posters appear. #CLASSIC

I’m sure you realize that a majority of Kahuku’s athletes go on to play Division 1 athletics which requires clearing NCAA clearinghouse regulations? Look at the basketball team alone, 3 guys have already signed D1 scholarships. No mention of that, though. You’re obsessively concerned with the testing scores to try and downplay the entire school and somehow you want to tie that into their athletic accomplishments. Well, how did it feel to have your team (because obviously you have one and it definitely isn’t Kahuku) get beaten by a school where the testing is below average according to your stats? You are a troll in every sense of the word.

@ NS, here is the link for the NCAA Division I Initial-Eligibility Requirements: http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/eligibility_center/Quick_Reference_Sheet.pdf

So you can be eligible with a 2.0 (yes a C average) and 1020 on the SAT.

HAHAHA! So you are telling me since some athletes can get a 2.0 GPA and score 1020 on the SAT that means they are smart?

I mean, I could understand if you told me 3.0 and a 1200 which is decent. But 2.0 and 1020? Most Punahou and Iolani kids could score that after 1 minute off sleep, given half of the allotted time, and high off Codeine.

C’mon man, you need to do better than that if you are doing to spit numbers. At least make sure the numbers are high, not below average….

————————-

So are you saying that both the Star Advertiser and scoringlive’s reporting and numbers are incorrect? You say the majority of Kahuku’s athletes go on to play Division 1 sports. That means 51% or more go to college to play D1 sports.

Given that Kahuku has about 18-20 sports they enter in, each team having 10 or more participants, that would mean in a given year Kahuku fields about 200-250 athletes in grades 9-12. I am going to assume that some kids play multiple sports. I am sorry but I don’t have that specific information.

But going on a quick estimation of athletes, you are telling us that 100 or more athletes from Kahuku play a D1 sport in college? WOW! That is more than Cal Poly, Punahou, Morse, Mater Dei, etc.

What is Sports Illustrated doing? They rated Punahou the #1 High School Sports Program in America. Going on your comment, we all got it wrong since based on your statement and data, Kahuku puts over 100 kids into D1 sports over a 1-2 year span.

That is amazing!

So given that the average graduating class for Kahuku is about 240, you are telling me 0.03 – 0.0416 is the percentage that you are using to support your argument?

WOW! I mean you are trying to use math to strengthen your argument and it is really flawed. But you do have the right to think that 0.03 – 0.0416 of Kahuku’s graduating class will pass the NCAA Clearing House in order to be eligible to play.

And you do know that standards to clear the NCAA Clearinghouse isn’t that high. That is why numerous athletes from low income areas on the mainland have students who play college sports that can pass.

What is the level now to be eligible? I will find it for you and post it in my next post. I believe it’s quite low.

HAHA, this is your argument? Once again, WOW!

@ SMDH, So what I am reading is that you too are unable to dissect and prove that my data is flawed or inaccurate. So instead of discussing the scientific data, you make a feeble attempt to interject insults and name calling to camouflage that you are unable to show the blogging community that my theory and argument is incorrect.

Thank you for showing our audience that you are not intelligent enough to be objective and debate. I would applaud you for the insults, but they are pretty tired and over-used. Can you at least attempt to use new and creative material when you insult me? At least entertain us.

Please try harder and not take other people’s ideas without properly citing your sources.

But hey, at leasat you tried. I mean not very well, but you get a D+ for effort and a F for originality.

Keep them coming. Hopefully your next batch of insults will be more humorous and insulting.

Guys, don’t you love how people have to go off the path with hopes of persuading people without proving me wrong?

I provide so much data and no one can prove me wrong. I wonder why?
