OLine needs to hit the weight room. However I’m hearing some dumb rule prevents the kids from going on their own time to do this.

Adolpho can be a good QB if he has a legit QB coach. Mechanics and footwork are important, areas he needs to improve on to be the type of QB that can bring a passing game to Kahuku’s already potent running game. Toma, with his playing and coaching experience can be a good passing game coordinator. The offensive line needs to improve on pass and zone blocking techniques for Kahuku to bring a RPO style to their offense.

@ILoveHawii:
Former NFL players aren’t billionaires. Some might be Millionaires. But it’s gonna take over 100 million to build in the below sea level stadium. My emphasis on some might be millionaires.

(cont)
11. Disregard 1 and 3 thru 10
12. Hire Reggie as HC.
13. Bring Beatty back as DC.
14. Bring in Chris as o-line coach and run game coordinator.
15 Keep #2.
16. Get rid of administration.
17. Hukilau to cater after every game to feed the players.
18. Former RR players that played in the NFL to donate money and JUST build a new stadium for the team.
19. Also, build a new weightroom for the school.
20. Mandatory Kumon for the football team to get these guys ready and prepared to qualify for college, not just to play football.

Just my thoughts.

If Carvalho remains as HC:
1. Find a QB coach to work with Adolpho. Kid has size and the arm strength. But needs coaching on techniques: footwork, release, accuracy.
2. Roma as receiving & passing game coordinator.
3. Need an OC versed in the Run-Pass-Option. Still need to run the ball. But develop the other two phases.
4. A DC, that can build a solid core on the line and linebackers. Can’t blitz all the time. Defense needs to be rebuilt because of key losses to graduation.
5. Special Teams need a coach who can have good return schemes. Kicking game has t improve, too.
6. Coaching staff all needs to be on the same page. Can’t be influenced by parents, friends, or ex-players.
7. Instill discipline, hardwork ethic, trust, and loyalty among coaches and team.
8. Administration needs to keep hands-off/micromanaging of team.
9. Community needs to get over the “once we were champions “ attitude and understand that it’s going to take a lot of change in culture to get back to being a powerhouse.
10. To all RRFL: TRUST THE PROCESS. LET THE COACHES COACH. LET THE PLAYERS PLAY.

You guys are all delusional…the coach serves at the pleasure of the AD and Principal. Former coaches are former coaches because to one degree or another they felt it beneath them to fight for their job. Coach Sterl just won the OIA championship, something that a lot of us couldn’t do. Get on board and support. Happy New Year!!!!

At what point do you step in?
In letting the coaches continue to coach when they not winning despite having a talent filled team??

Let the Kid’s play, The coaches coach and The refs ref !!
TOO much parent influence in today’s kids sports from Pop Warner to High School.
Not every kid will be a Manti Te’o or Tua Tagovailoa.

@HI HS FAN…spot on!

The community needs to support the players like years past regardless of who the coaches were. Heck, the community voted Torres out AFTER he gave you state titles. THAT’S CRAZY!!! Too many opinions on how the team should be ran. Don’t worry about college recruiting, because if you’re good, scouts will find you. Just get back to hard nosed Red Raider Football and fly around the field like the good old days. Kahuku won many titles without having the most skilled players, but they played with a different energy that no one could touch. Find it again!

Good luck next year Red Raiders.

Get rid of Sterling Carvalho and hire a coach with real college connects so the players can get some looks from college coaches.

Make Toma your OC. Have the offense do 7on7 in the offseason.

If they RE-build it. Players will come back and players will stay.
