Over from Buffscoop, which has been doing good write ups of practice (like slider and friends) and in general have been all over this. Here is a snippet that caught my eye.

From a guy who has played and coached in the NFL, that is high praise to say they have that potential. And not accidental. Looks like our "filler" class won't be a waste. Coaches don't say that without there being a good reason for it. Also, it is no surprise to me that Parker and Asiata play angry (also good to see Nembot mentioned). Hawaii boys are... different. :smile2:

Reporter: What have been your impressions of Juda specifically?
JE: Juda is a guy that has one speed. And it's a good speed. We've got some guys that have one speed and it's not good. He's on the good side of the ledger. So he's got one speed, he's smart, he's got good football instincts. Sometimes he doesn't do things quite right but he works his way out of it during the play. I just love his motor and his pad level, his intensity. Him, Paulay Asiata and Nembot have had some battles where we had to make sure it stayed here on the field. And that's good. I've told these guys, you're going to be going against each other for the next four or five years so get used to it. So I like the fact that they're very competitive, very intense, none of them like to lose the three of them. They take it personal when they lose and that's good.
Reporter: I would have thought Parker and Asiata would have been sick of hitting each other?
JE: I don't know, that'll go on for a while. Hopefully that'll go on to Sundays. They definitely get after each other.
