Fresno Bee feature on the Warriors

FB = Fresno Bee

Worried about UH's offense, Pat Hill said:
"They cause some real problems [for defenses] because they're not sure what they want to do yet. With [former coach June Jones] there, you pretty much knew what you were going to get every time you played against Hawaii. But with this team there are a lot of unknowns." (FB)

About how UH is running more this season, Hill said:
"I wouldn't say they're relying more on it. They are very efficient. They're running the power. They get those box setups where they have more blockers than you have defenders. They run some quick-hitting plays. It's not just the draw and the shovel pass anymore. You can't always dictate it by the alignment of the backs. I think their running game is going to give you more problems than it has in the past." (FB)

FB Note: "The Warriors are averaging 3.6 yards per rush. They averaged 3.8 yards per carry last season through four games."

About how they will get ready for Inoke's running threat by using freshman Ebahn Feathers (a running QB in high school) as their scout team QB, Hill said:
"He'll give us a workout." (FB)
