Laupepa Letuli and Aaron Brown will miss the Louisiana Tech game

HSB Note: "Letuli, a senior, injured his left knee during a weight training session this week. It was initially thought he'd play against the Bulldogs (1-2), but McMackin said yesterday that Letuli will miss the game. He's hopeful Letuli will be back for UH's meeting with Fresno State on Oct. 10 at Aloha Stadium."

HSB Note: "With Letuli out, juniors Adrian Thomas and Kainoa LaCount have split the repetitions at right tackle for the last two practices. Thomas has appeared in two games in his career, while LaCount is awaiting his Division I debut since transferring from College of the Canyons. Brown, who began the season as a safety, has been bothered by a hamstring injury since fall camp. He played through it and recorded 10 tackles, including a sack."

About how Aaron Brown has been hampered all season by his hamstring injury, Mac said:
"It's just continuing to get worse. We're going to have to make some decisions because he can't perform that way." (HSB)

Hoping that his tight hamstring gets better by game time, Ryan Henry said:
"It gets better every day. (Today) I just have to see how I feel, continue to get treatment and see how it is." (HSB)

HSB Note: "Henry said the first twinge came during practice last week in Las Vegas, and it worsened during the game against UNLV. If Henry can't play, Greg Salas will step in as the punt returner. Jovonte Taylor could be back at wide receiver for today's practice after missing the last two days due to a sprained ankle suffered early in the loss at UNLV. Royce Pollard has been working with the first team at Z receiver and as the kickoff returner in Taylor's absence. Defensive end Paipai Falemalu and tackle Vaughn Meatoga sat out of team drills as they continue to recover from ankle injuries."
