Everybody recruits…thats just the way it has become in a competitive world of sports. No matter the level, state or sport. OIA shouldnt be able to compete with ILH talent wise (in any sport) because of the opportunities that are afforded “student athletes” that attend private institutions of learning vs the questionable education you get at a public school and the chance of getting noticed by College coaches.
Since Kahuku beat STLouis in 2001 the High School Football world changed from whos playing for next best because STLouis was in their own world. It looks as if they are starting to create that again as many of the talented kids look for “greener pastures” elsewhere in and out of state. We all get heated in the cheering of our teams and get caught up in our pride and forget about the ones putting their bodies on the line and say or even do “stupid” things that impact them.
Fans in Hawaii (especially HS sports) need to cheer more and stop being critical of the players as if they are full grown adults and should be playing mistake free. These kids are our future and we need to be better examples of what they need to be like and what not to become.
Good luck to all teams, players and coaches. Referees call it fair and lets have a great football season. GO BIG RED!

“What” or “Notes” stop whining. Kahuku ranked 5th pre-season is perfect they can prove people wrong without the pressure and hype and no body is stealing your players. There’s way way way better players in KPT and Mayor Wright, Palolo, etc who’s parents won’t complain about the long trip between NS and town. Everything Closed on Sundays is right, RR been recruiting “Mormons” from Utah, Calif, American and Western Samoa for decades. Stick with “What” you know, modern dance and women’s fashion.

@Closed. It’s actually the other way around. Haters can’t just go read their own schools articles they lurk on Kahuku articles with the hopes of responding… like come on here and say that Kahuku recruits. Offense bad. They are one of the top teams in the state year in and year old.

here we go again crybabies lol. Why is it, that all you see on these posts is Red Crybabies.
Kahuku recruits just as heavily also. FAMILY MEMBERS from other states and locations move in with them. Yes thats also recruiting lol. The Red make like they are supposed to be on top of the world lol. When they losing they cry cry cry, when they winning , here comes all the band wagon people claiming Kahuku lol. Its a joke. Until they fix their offense, they will always be this way. As good as a football program as they supposed to be, the offense still looks like pop warner year in year out. But until then, just keep crying.

Kahuku has a lot to prove this year. The injuries and off-field adversities they endured last year was tough on them physically, mentally, and emotionally. People were critical and said that that was an excuse for the season they had. There were some glaring shortcomings especially on the offensive side. Defensively , adjustments had to be made when key players got hurt. This year, the defense will need to be their strength until the offense comes around.

@Stink Olos… Mine your own business.

Kahuku is Kahuku, without kids that decide to go elsewhere.

The two OIA teams in front of Kahuku ,Mililani and Campbell did some heavy recruiting. Make like the ILH, transfers sit 1 year. Kali hi has Open team Farrington. No reason for the poly going to mililani. Now neighborhood mililani kids gotta transfer to Pearl City to play.

Red Raider have a lot a talent and pride. Just gotta to stay healthy with no injuries. #5 may be a good thing for now. The team just gotta keep climbing up every week and not look to far ahead. One game at a time! Open division will always be tough.
