A sad day for #HawaiiFB-- hometown product and first string QB Chevan Cordeiro has entered the Transfer Portal, sending shockwaves through the program.
Former UH players RJ Hollis & Darryl McBride Jr. created a Twitter Space shortly after - an audio forum similar to Zoom but native to the social medium - in which several current and former players aired grievances regarding head coach Todd Graham that were extremely revealing and even damning.
SuperFans Wayne Coito, Shane "Laulauhead" Agno and Sean Eyman highlight one of the most real, most raw discussions - one that went for three hours and included several UH administrators, players, alumni, fans, and media members listening in - surrounding this program ever.

Coming off a necessary win on Senior Night in front of another meager home crowd, #HawaiiFB now sets its sights on beating Wyoming in Laramie for a possible bowl invitation at 6-7.
Whether the 'Bows crack the postseason or not, the Athletic Department is still facing incredibly high deficits that could potentially kill the program if not for the continued and possibly increased financial assistance of the state legislature, as referenced in a TV news story on KHON.
The print media has also gotten more critical of the team, pointing at the hiring of Bo Graham as OC (which we talked about last week on the show before it came out). The Star Advertiser's Stephen Tsai also warned of the potential loss of Division I status and the potential for the school to "give it up" and/or move down to lower tier FCS.
SuperFans Wayne Coito, Sean Eyman and Shane "Laulauhead" Agno continue to tackle the major existential questions surrounding this program that the rest of the Local media is just beginning to talk about.

After a miserable defeat in Vegas, Rainbow Warrior fans are getting more vocal about the team's Offensive Coordinator and son of #HawaiiFB Head Coach, Todd Graham.
An ugly loss in front of thousands of UH fans who made the trip only adds to the prospect of another half-empty TC Ching for Senior Night.
Why a broken culture, missing identity and lack of vision hurts the program even more than the losses on the field.

A capacity crowd of 9,000 fans was finally a possibility for #HawaiiFB, but the stands gave us a lot of empty seats instead.
Wayne and Sean look at the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of the Rainbow Warriors new on-campus facility in its close loss to SDSU this past Saturday and what to look forward to when it reopens for one last home game next week.
The boys also discuss why a diminishing fan base is the school's bigger problem and what the program must do now to make up for the loss of season ticket holders every single year.

The near two-year wait is over as #HawaiiFB can now welcome a full house of fans, albeit at much smaller Ching Field, capacity 9,000, far from the 50,000 seats at Aloha Stadium.
But is that necessarily a bad thing? How big is the fan base these days anyway?
Longtime Warrior Fan Aaron Montoya joins Wayne and Sean to discuss where the program is trending.
Wayne was among the 1,000 allowed into the UH/NMSU game and talks the venue, the Colt Brennan ceremony and why on-campus is likely the future for the Bows, for better or for worse.
We also talk about a big tour next week for those Titans fans in the 808 looking to see their team up close! We got the best seats on the vistiors tunnel at SoFi and are throwing in the AIR, ROOM, and GROUND Tranportation as well as the Club Seats!

Finally (some) fans will get to see #HawaiiFB live, but in the nearly two years since the last time we saw the team at home in-person, much damage has been done to a fan base that has already been hemorrhaging supporters for years now.
Wayne, Shane and Sean talk the state of the program-- why neglect, lack of vision, and inability to inspire new fans at leadership from the top down have contributed to the steady downfall of the fan base for many years now, even before Ige became the main target.
They guys also discuss why the New Aloha Stadium is positioned to fail now and in the future and why the 'Bows have a shot in Reno against the Wolf Pack.

#HawaiiFB takes down #18 Fresno State for its first win over a ranked opponent since 2010 - giving Coach Todd Graham a signature victory - albeit one without any fans, let alone family members.
As Covid numbers dip, will Governor Ige finally let the fans in?
