Pre season polls, In season polls, and post season polls all don’t mean squat! Anything short of holding up that Koa Trophy means sh@#.

Who ever is playing well going into and in the states whether it be the #1 or even an unranked team is all that matters.

Mostly year in and year out Kailua is playing in the states. Coach Corey has done an amazing job these past 20 years. So who is ever hiding behind the name “Bumbucha” and saying it’s an ego thing. Do your homework and shorten your name to the first three letters for that is what you sound like.

Ishigo just using being Unranked to motivate his players. They will probably win the OIA East and make States and then we’ll see what happens… Mid-Pac may be ranked #1 next week and may not even make States..

It’s still early in the season. You put your head down and keep working hard and moving forward. In the end you will be where your supposed to be. Where you are now has no bearing on where you will be or even where you want to be. Nobody is disrespecting Kailua. Respect is earned, not given.

Bumbuchas, all Ishigo pointed out was disrespect. Returning basically the entire lineup that won the OIA and dropped a close game to waiakea, its understandable. Iolani, based on a bunch of returnees was ranked #2 and they didnt even make states last year. Its the same old song. OIA teams have to prove themselves while other leagues, ILH and MIL, get ranked based on name. Ishigo is using the snub as fuel for his team. Last year the ILH had one team in the state semis as did the OIA. In 2016 there was no ILH team in the semis while the OIA had 3 teams.

suprised to hear Coach Ishigo is concerned and miffed at not being ranked in a subjective poll of ranked teams. Most Coaches don’t give a S_ _ t about being ranked and know it’s not how you start the season but how you finish it thats important. The teams at that point have proven themselves. It’s like players who are concerned about Stats, Coaches concerned about polls is all about ego’s.
