It was a nice turnout — more than 100 — for yesterday's UH Big Man's football camp.
There were drills, competitions and, of course, loud music.
Here's camp director Chris Demarest: Demo video.
And here's head coach Norm Chow: Chow video.
The ball-skill guys go today.

Good Sunday!
June 10th, 2012 at 3:06 am
Insomnia is a pain in the oshiri.
Been awake for 6 hours. Today's nap is sure going to be welcomed!
June 10th, 2012 at 3:07 am
Top 10, too!
June 10th, 2012 at 3:10 am
Morning! Nice interviews ST! Wishing a beautiful Sunday to everyone!
June 10th, 2012 at 3:56 am
anybody got eggs to go with all this spam?
June 10th, 2012 at 4:03 am
Morning, everyone!
Exciting times... and they just keep coming! Gotta keep the big men excited so they stay home!
It is funny that SPAM was first, though!
Have a great Sunday, everyone! Looking forward to the skills report!
June 10th, 2012 at 5:28 am
Morning folks!
That so-called wind suppresor, isn't it that foam attachment on the mic?
Anyway, decent picture, but like MC mentioned, the audio was hard to hear.
June 10th, 2012 at 5:36 am
Wish I put some change on Bradley in last nights fight!
June 10th, 2012 at 5:39 am
Great Morning All!
Never leave it in the hands of the judges....
June 10th, 2012 at 5:53 am
Gmornin' gang-
Saw this link while watching ST's Chow vid. Big Hit tackle drills!

June 10th, 2012 at 6:41 am
Good morning, gang!
Thanks for the videos, ST!
June 10th, 2012 at 7:07 am
MourNing everyone.
Been reading the Rams blog and seems like Gregg Salas is doing very good during the ota's. Hes been with the 1st unit and been making some good catches. Said he is one of the surprises of camp. also said he is a different player and seem faster.
Keep it up!!!!!
June 10th, 2012 at 7:18 am
Good Morning Gangeez!
More video! Alrighty then! Thanks Stephen.
Coach Demo oozes enthusiasm, energy and positivity. Like what I see of him. Didn't like that the wind kept butting in whenever Coach Chow spoke.
808Bowler @ 7:07am -
Thanks for the updates on Salas. Wonder how Kealoha is doing?
June 10th, 2012 at 7:19 am
Aloha Kakahiaka!
Yup... Good to see peeps catching up with how good we know Salas really is! Wonder how thenother Warrior #1 is doing...
June 10th, 2012 at 7:29 am
Howzit Everybody,
A-joe, nice video. Now that's how you teach tackling.
ST, thanks for the video. Every time I here Coach Demo talk, I just like hit somebody. Now that's one football coach.
June 10th, 2012 at 7:30 am
sorry to early
here=hear
June 10th, 2012 at 7:33 am
Seeing those two video from ST and A-joe just makes me want to get back on the field. That's ok, get one more week of break and then I stay back on Alexander Field for summer camps. Ho braddah can not wait.
June 10th, 2012 at 7:35 am
Eh look like I the only one here. I guess I better go eat breakfast and then get ready for church. Aloha's all and have a wonderful day.
June 10th, 2012 at 7:42 am
ST: That Demo vid was excellent. Too bad the wind ruined Chow's video. Ah, well, learn from your mistakes.
A-Joe: mahalo for the awesome video.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:00 am
Still miss PL but good job with the interviews, ST!
June 10th, 2012 at 8:27 am
There was no wind. Then as Chow started to speak, woooosh.
He does have unique powers.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:28 am
Liz: Hope you're feeling better today.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:30 am
ST: Funny you mentioned omelet. I had the portuguese sausage-mushroom-spinach-cheese omelet from Koa Pancake House. Ono with buttermilk pancakes.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:31 am
The other day I interviewed John Hardy-Tuliau but accidentally clicked off the recorder after 2 seconds.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:32 am
ST: Are you implying that Chow is a windbag? Lol. Yah, bad.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:33 am
ST: looks like you won't be hired as a videographer at ESPN.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:33 am
Gigi:
That was an accidental post. Midori7 texted me about Time Coffee Shop. I forgot I was on the blog template.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:34 am
Good morning Tsaikos!
Happy middle of a 3-day weekend (for those of you who have tomorrow off).
Once again, nice vids, ST.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:36 am
JM: hubby doesn't get Monday off. Boo hoo.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:37 am
Hubby's boss caught him sleeping on the job on Friday. Hey, it was after lunch, it was hot, and and and...
For the record, hubby has caught his boss napping too.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:38 am
We are watching the French Open. We recorded it and allotted 6 hrs for it.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:42 am
If you're ever caught sleeping, say "amen" and open your eyes.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:43 am
ST: good one.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:43 am
If you're ever coming home late, walk in backwards and pretend you were going out to get the paper.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:43 am
constitutional right. Freedom of religion.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:45 am
If you acidentally hit your car horn, point to a random person on the street and yell, "hey, how are you?"
June 10th, 2012 at 8:46 am
if you're a cornerback and you get beat, grab your hamstring.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:47 am
If you're playing basketball and you take three steps without dribbling and then crash into a defender, change your name to LeBron and the ref will give you two free throws.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:50 am
hey, to the basket, one two and there you go.
June 10th, 2012 at 8:59 am
I remember against the Knicks. LeBron gets "hit" on the back, then collapses to the ground, grabbing his head. Will he play again? Is his career in jeopardy? Tyson Chandler is assessed a flagrant foul. LeBron dunks on the next play. Great acts are achieved by great actors. But enough about Pacman's loss.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:05 am
Note to myself: LOSE SOME WEIGHT, YOU'LL FEEL GREAT.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:06 am
I was gonna walk up the block, but the sun is out now.
Meanwhile, my fingers are getting a workout.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:07 am
Well, ST, I don't know about you, but I love LeBron. He's a champ in my eyes.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:10 am
Good Morning Hawaii!
No burst of joy. May be stuck here another day.
On the menu is some dishes suggested by a prominent local chef. Reminds me not to eat there.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:13 am
tom: Lucky you!!! When I was at Straub for 3 nites, all I ate was jello day and nite to get ready for a colonoscopy.

Good morning everyone!
mctruck @ 0213
I can imagine...
But reminds me of the time I went to a new Chinese restaurant in Hampton Roads, VA. Chinese family run... grandma came shuffling out to my table and asked in a bronx accent, "So wadda ya want?". I stared in surprise. She repeated the question more slowly in case I didn't speak english. They just relocated from New York where she was born.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:54 am
Whoo-hoo! The threat of an investigation to gas price fixing/gouging by Senator Murray caused somethings to change. Literally overnight!
The price change from Thursday afternoon (the day Murray started asking questions) to this morning saw a $0.32 price drop to $3.85. Still, though, the local Shell lists their Regular at $4.35.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:54 am
LeBron is very good.
June 10th, 2012 at 9:56 am
Good Morning TSAIKOS!
Congrats to Eri Yoshida on her win last night for Maui's Na Koa.
June 10th, 2012 at 10:13 am
Oops. $0.42 price drop.
June 10th, 2012 at 10:47 am
Wafan: Gas $4.159 at Costco.
$4.299 at Chevron. Hawaii prices!!!
June 10th, 2012 at 10:53 am
GG . . .
Prices would be lower if the refineries/oil companies would stop shipping refined crude out of country. But that would mean they would not make as much money.
June 10th, 2012 at 10:56 am
Well, I personally don't care. I drive very little, so I buy gas every 2 months, at most. Just drive to and from my dental and medical appointments, fast food outlets, and some shopping. That's all.
June 10th, 2012 at 10:59 am
I like the idea of buying an electric car, but hubby said it would not be cost effective for me.
June 10th, 2012 at 10:59 am
Good morning Tsaikos everywhere.
the Pacman fight result was junk! stinky junk!!
June 10th, 2012 at 11:01 am
Pac is old. Isn't he 35? Maybe he should retire. Just sayin'.
June 10th, 2012 at 11:19 am
I'm old, I should retire too.
June 10th, 2012 at 11:24 am
Wow... I didn't realize that Pacquiao was a Congressman in the Philippines. Hope he protected his head. Got to avoid brain damage at least until he's president.
June 10th, 2012 at 11:28 am
gigi,
pac is 33 y.o.
have a greatday folks.
June 10th, 2012 at 12:16 pm
its going to take a lot of brain power and stamina to keep secrets, make back room deals, and lie if he wants to be a congressman for a long time.
June 10th, 2012 at 12:18 pm
talkin old.
grandkid Makamae is 19. gonna be a junior in college this sept. coaches early teens volleyball. they call her aunty. she is habut about dat.
wat does that make us, gigi?
June 10th, 2012 at 12:48 pm
Boxing needs a playoff system.
June 10th, 2012 at 1:03 pm
Just saw this in the SA article about Miss Hawaii:
"The top seven finalists included Miss Ala Moana Courtney Gaddis and and Miss Honolulu Carissa Kano."
Wasn't Courtney Gaddis a Wahine Basketball player?
June 10th, 2012 at 1:10 pm
Big Hilo: old futs?
June 10th, 2012 at 1:19 pm
Slugger - yup. She finished her eligibility this past season.
June 10th, 2012 at 1:34 pm
The only to eliminate controversy in boxing is to fight to the knockout, but then people will die.
June 10th, 2012 at 1:43 pm
Nice vids. I hope the blog don't get too lazy to write.
June 10th, 2012 at 2:14 pm
Sorry guys couldn't find anything in the carolina blogs bout pilares except that he is in the running for the slot position.
June 10th, 2012 at 3:11 pm
perusing the Na Wahine Basketball booster page and I found this interesting request and program needs to up grade women's basketball. I wonder if some of the monies coach Chow received from the Food industry on behalf of UH athletics can help the WBB program.
STUDENTATHLETE COSTS per player)
Summer School (returning students): $2,000
Summer Bridge Program (incoming students): $1,294
Summer Housing: $1,300
Gear: $2,437
Pre-Game Meals: $300
Pre and Post-Game Meals (on roadtrips): $1,500
PROGRAM & STAFF NEEDS
Computers: $7,500
Software: $25,000
Professional Development: $5,000
isn't under armour a sponsor of wbb, or is UA a UH sponsor of xxx dollars per year in which JD allocates which sport gets a share each season.
Camera: $1,500
June 10th, 2012 at 3:16 pm
also noted, Na Wahine is missing a returnee on its booster ad application form, Alissa Campanero is the only one not recognized in the booster application. Is she coming back next season?
June 10th, 2012 at 3:18 pm
Thanks 808Bowler. Good to read he's in the running.
June 10th, 2012 at 3:26 pm
on another note, Na Wahine Softball had another successful year on the field and we'd like to thank the fans who donated money at the gate, joined our booster club, and donated on line.
It's through the generosity of our fans that enabled us to contribute to the professional development of our coaches this season- our assistant coaches went to a coaches event on the mainland for the first time this past season, and coach Dee has been with the program 13 years.
Softball and WBB really need the public's help in funding its program and staff needs.
June 10th, 2012 at 3:47 pm
Bout that big fight last night - take a look at what fight promoter Bob Arum has to say:

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with a few pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that, this is wonderful blog. A fantastic read. I’ll definitely be back.

Great goods from you, man. I've consider your stuff previous to and you are simply too magnificent. I actually like what you've obtained here, really like what you are saying and the way in which during which you are saying it. You make it entertaining and you continue to take care of to keep it smart. I cant wait to learn far more from you. That is really a tremendous web site.
June 10th, 2012 at 5:16 pm
Does your site have a contact page? I'm having trouble locating it but, I'd like to shoot you an email. I've got some ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great blog and I look forward to seeing it develop over time.
June 10th, 2012 at 5:23 pm
.
Hopefully.
Then again, donated monies to 'UH athletics' doesn't guarantee anything to the programs themselves.

Hi J!!!
OK, maybe this one is 107 with the SPAM in place...

June 10th, 2012 at 7:48 pm
Tommui if you are at Queens yet, sometimes they let you (with a visitor) go
down to their wonderful cafeteria where you can eat what the nurses and docs
eat. Not too bad. (But avoid the pizza---tastes like cardboard). They've got
freshly cooked ramen, salad bar, chili, brown rice right next to it, and a
hot food counter sometimes with roast beef...and also you can order a hamburger,
french fries (not bad and enough for two people!) and even a fish sandwich which
defending on the cook, can be very ono. Plus on your way to and fro to the cafeteria,
it is like walking through a botanical garden.
June 10th, 2012 at 7:49 pm
Again, thanks ST for your masterful videos.
You are gonna get better and better and...
June 10th, 2012 at 7:50 pm
Alrighty then...

Na Koa Benefit on Kauai

Matagiese, whom Chow said will be a starter on the defensive line heading into fall camp, said he’s already noticed a difference with the new coach. While the former Waimea Menehune said the coach is nice and friendly off the field, during spring workouts Chow was complete business.
“Practices are a lot harder and faster,” Matagiese said. “It’s much more focused.”
That focus is something the Warriors will need heading into the Sept. 1 matchup against the presumtive No. 1 Trojans. Chow and his new staff could have asked for an easier first-game matchup, but “what is life without challenges?” Chow asked.
“We want to compete every single day and we need your support,” he said. “That’s where we are and we’re awfully proud.”
