RRFL: right… We know the run will always be there! Why not? Start the passing game, before the play offs OIA and HHSAA? Our road is easy to say the least, our next games anything can happen castle, mules, waipahu then Waianae come on now…we should be working on the passing game period! Wth is Hao thinking of putting kesi at QB he should be RB 24/7! The saying goes “you don’t practice it…you ain’t gonna do it”..will see what they have coming up and then let’s see how things come out in the playoffs.

Ok, so why is everyone so worried about kahuku passing game. I think everyone knows that kahuku has always been about the defense. They have won so many state titles doing what they do best. Of course we would like to see them pass and improve They’ll get there. their passing game. i remember when all people could talk about was how great morikawa and tuileta as quarterbacks, most explosive quarterbacks ever….until they went up against a kahuku defense and we all know what happened next. back to back state tiles. these quarterbacks were on their backs all night long. kahuku will keep on doing what they do best and how they have won many state titles. Defense wins championships.

88: I’m talking about work on the passing game at the beginning of the game! Yeah true Kahuku had ways been about the run…but when others teams start to stop the run then what? Seriously it will get tough real soon, they should work on their passing game the next few games, I’m not saying pass all game long, but work on it! If they need to go to the air at least it will be their! Come playoff time we gotta be an all around team! Just saying… We don’t want to hear the coaches saying “we didn’t work on our passing game” until our first loss when it counts!

How you going pass the ball when your up 50? It doesnt look good especially against a team like Mckinley. They tried a pass play in the 2nd half remember and it went in for 6. How does that look when your up by that many points yet your passing the ball? To me it look stoopid. Every year people say you need to pass the ball to win states yet Kahuku, which has the most State football Titles in the State of Hawaii, keep doing it without one. So either Kahuku with its caveman football is just that good or Hawaii football is just that shetty that they have a hard time stoping a one dimensional team.

Wasn’t Renaud the JV starter for Kahuku last season? If I recall that kid has an arm and pretty accurate passer…wth isn’t he playing more? Things like these make you go hmmm? Coach Hao put the real qb’s in, kesi belongs at RB…as for pockets passers what the heck, you guys think your going to win in the play offs without a passing threat? Think about it: I’d rather have a pocket passer who can run the ball and threat at passing, making me wonder about coach Hao…just like at SLS started the other QB and when Mariota came in…and where is he now? Smh! Get with the program coaches…know your kids off the field too. As for grade check seriously 20+ plus out in the game? Wth is going on!!!

When Kahuku played Kapolei a few weeks ago and when Kahukus starting QB went out they put in the 2nd string. He threw a nice ball and had one completion but overall our defense was able to rattle him and put the offense out of sync. Kesi came in as the 3rd QB and the offense kind of settled down, it seems that Kesi has more control and is more confident at QB, I think the offense is better with Kesi in, its still one dimentional but until a true passing QB comes in I think Kesi is their best option to win.

It’s so sad that the QBs don’t even get passing attempts. The coaches can find there QB if they give them a shot during game time! Run play action or something.

NSFootball that’s exactly what I was thinking. In the 3rd they put Kesi Ahoy back at running back to give him looks when they easily could have worked on their passing game. Kesi will always be good at running the ball, they don’t need to develop him more than the passing game. Doesn’t make sense to me!!!
