Konawaena’s Molina stands tall among Fab. 15

Would have been nice if UH could have gotten at least one of the Molina sisters. I guess with Coach Awa’s connection to WSU may have helped WSU to get them. To bad older sister had to sit out this year with injuries, hope she recovers 100%.

Too bad one of the Molina sisters didn’t end up at USC, Cal, UCLA, or another higher level academic university. When you are that talented doors open. But sometimes, you need the right people surrounding you to show you which doors to open or to actually open the doors for you.

My Intel told me that with the correct people around her, more prominent universities would have been a realistic option for the oldest Molina.

EF, would those top schools you speak of, admit all of the Molina sisters?

Part of their decision to go to WSU was to all play together. Did your sources tell you that? Are your sources even close to the family? Nope.

Please, know your role.

WSU is a fine institution, Konaweana and WSU have a relationship.
They picked WSU for a number of reasons and what was best for their ohana.

EF sounds like another townie from honolulu.

Go Wildcats!

So you are saying that Washington State is a fine university? You must have very low standards for yourself and your children and/or community members. I will provide some data for you. Unlike you, I don’t speak out of my ass without providing any evidence.

US News, which is recognized as the Holy Grail by universities, high schools, and parents as providing the most credible and accurate college rankings puts Washington State at #143 overall and given them a ranking of 39/100.

That’s bad. But hey, “it’s a fine institution!” HAHA.

Also, this is the institution and coaching staff that never stayed on top of their recent drop-out correct? You know, the situation when a player stopped going to class and stopped doing all their work. So that player left school since they would have been ineligible and had to go play overseas?

I guess those are characteristics of a fine university too? Do you have any information that supports your claim that WSU is a fine university?

Or do you normally create arguments and give opinions without providing data, evidence, or anything to support your opinion?

I have to agree that USC and UCLA are much better schools than WSU. You also forgot Stanford. WSU is at the bottom for academics in the Pac 12.

ED and The Watcher as long as the girls are getting good education, what does being bottom of PAC12 or lower tier even matter. Their are thousands of schools that’s much lower tier, but why keep comparing and repeating yourself.It just don’t make sense why your so concern with what school Molina went to. Would you be happy if she went to USC or UCLA? Both school she upset during her time playing before her injury. She’s happy and getting big recognition at WSU, so I guess she must have picked the right school.
—————————————–
Well what if your child could get a BETTER education? Do you teach your children to be content? Or do you teach them to be risk takers and shoot for the stars? Now, assuming it’s free, there’s nothing wrong with free education.

But if a realistic option is USC, UCLA, or Cal, and those options were not shown to me or wasn’t made availability due to the HC’s inability to create relationships with college scouts or their unwillingness to let the star player travel with other clubs that go to more high profile tournaments, then I would be very disappointed.

If the kid got into USC or UCLA I would be very happy for the kid. It frustrates me when talented kids settle (not her fault) since they were not told or the adults surrounding them are naive and/or inexperienced on how to do the recruiting thing.

As for big recognition, what are you talking about? UCONN has won over 100 games in a row, and even that wasn’t really front page news compared to other high level and high profile sports. So what big recognition is she getting?

As for upsetting them, big whoops. I am talking about securing a high level degree that opens many doors. Maybe you don’t understand, but when you graduate from USC or UCLA, especially when you are an athlete, doors open, jobs are often waiting, and the networking among fellow alumni is HUGE!

Please tell me that is incorrect.

Give it a rest dude, you just hate Konawaena and any success they or any of their girls have. I know lots of people who have degrees from small private DIII universities that do very well for themselves, and on the other hand I know a few that did go to your top listed schools and are not even working in the field they received their degree from. Bottom line is the Molina girls kicked butt and the last one still has one more year to irritate you. So funny reading your idiotic posts.

I have gone on record many times to say how talented these young ladies are. Please find a post where I say they are not talented?

Once again making up stuff to try and make yourself sound correct. Who does that?

My point is with the school and adults not giving them the opportunity to get into schools that their talent matches. The oldest Molina has legit top 25 school talent and she is at WSU.

Please right back and make up more stuff. What’s next? Are you going to accuse me of writing stuff about NCAA D2 or the NAIA?

Sad, you cannot even read.

Take in to consideration that the Molina sisters are short so they are very lucky to play for any school,
