There are no D1 HS prospects In Hawaii! Especially under 6 feet. You have to be 6′ 5″ and can jump out of the gym and no one even come close to that in Hawaii. However, Sage has a chance because of his height but don’t put too much pressure on him cause he ain’t ever offered a scholarship yet from any of the D1 schools. Sage focus should be just college, If you’re good enough, the NBA will find you so don’t talk about cause its added pressure that the 17 year old don’t need.

I am 99% sure you are trolling on here I wish I knew the backstory of why you post so much about Bumanglag. To say ‘Iolani’s season was “awful” is not too much of an exaggeration. They just did not have talent this year and looking down the pipeline I do not see a savior for them. I very much scratch my head at any D1 (or D2 or even D3) interested in an under 6’ guard from Hawai’i averaging 5 ppg. That is almost every player in the state.

I dont know anything about the player you mentioned.
But, how many Hawaii players, “just under 6 feet” have made it to D1?
I am genuinely curious.

By what you shared, he is someone to look out for this season.
Cant wait to see him play.

I know Tolentino did some numbers last season, but come back to this comment when Bailey Bumanglag outa Iolani does twice his numbers. Just under 6 feet, he’s an agile and versatile shooting guard. I am well aware of Iolani’s awful season but what all the critics didn’t realize, was that it was Iolani’s rebuilding year. Bumanglag will now be a junior and Iolani will be able to compete with the likes of Kamehameha and Maryknoll. What some others also didn’t realize, is that most of Iolani’s lost games were a mere 2-4 points behind the victors. Although they fell short the entire season, from my perspective, it was a good thing. The character of the underclassmen was built up and Bumanglag will seriously be a force to reckon with this upcoming season.

P.S. my uncle who works as a sports administrator at Iowa State has mentioned to me a few times the amount of interest some D1 schools have in Bumanglag. Some coaches consider him a raw Japanese Wagyu a5 Fillet Mignon– all he needs is a little bit of seasoning to perfect the already top tier skill set he has.

Why UH had more than two season to watch and no offer from them?
