UH moving into the dance studios again for camp

About how he's prepared for the dance studios this year, Adam Leonard said:
"Thankfully I got an air mattress this year because I definitely haven't been comfortable sleeping on the fold-out beds." (HA)

HSB Note: "The influx of players begins today when freshmen and transfers report for camp. The veterans join them tomorrow with the first of 29 practices leading up to the opener at Florida set for 10 a.m. Monday."

About how he decided they should stay with the dance studios instead of the dorms after talking with the team's vets, Mack said:
"We could have gone into the dorms, but really the seniors are the ones who really wanted to stay together to get to know the new players. It's a good bonding experience." (HSB)

HSB Note: "The team is split into two studios, one for seniors and freshman with sophomores and juniors in the other."

About why the vets like staying at the dance studios for camp, Keao Monteilh said:
"You get to interact with everybody. Everybody's in one big room, you don't have to go door to door to get to know some of the guys. You get less privacy and you hear people snore. We always try to pick out who's the loudest snorers." (HSB)

About staying together at the dance studios, Adam Leonard said:
"You get to see more people's personalities and see how they are. I think it's real good for the new guys to get the personality of the team." (HSB)

About how they will have limited free time during camp except for Sunday, Monteilh talked about his Sunday plans:
"I'll go to church, spend time with my family and be back by curfew." (HSB)

HSB Note: "The team will practice once per day next week and have six sets of two-a-days scheduled, the first on Aug. 11. McMackin said he plans on holding one scrimmage during camp. Offensive lineman Kainoa LaCount and defensive back Chris Black, both junior college transfers, are finishing summer courses and are expected to report later in the week."

About the rankings of Florida and other opponents, Adam Leonard said:
"It doesn't really matter to me, .I'm just ready to go out and play against anybody." (HSB)
