ok guy, you must be stepping on crap in kailua. she's doing the best with what she has, ok volleyball legend, 4 losses is the best she can do, doubt it. you are just blinded because you are a hawaii fan which i get. i am realistic, i know they aren't very good, they could play the men's team and you would think they will win.
against good teams? they haven't played a good team, the schedule has been mediocre at best. they struggle against mediocrity. you are right i have never been to a match ever in my life and know nothing about volleyball or hawaii volleyball. sorry greatest volleyball person ever. i don't stink anything up, i am just trying to keep it real and keep you all in line. if you watch these matches, teams have a plan on what to do, hawaii just goes in there and tries to beat teams. just like when norm chow coached football. he just lined his guys up and said go beat the other teams. can't do that when you are not that good. same things happen every match and it doesn't get fixed. robyn doesn't work on the little things, which is what is costing them matches.

robyn does coach with her ego. she thinks her players are the same as her and angelica. they are no where near. she thinks her teams can just go out there and win. instead of jumping up and down and screaming, don't be afraid to coach the team up. make adjustments, do something instead of just watch the team lose set after set. iosia is not even that dominant on the outside. it doesn't matter if she does get kills, without a good setter they got no shot. ma'afala will not get it done. if iosia was that dominant it's different, but she's not. once league starts she will get exposed hitting. cal poly hasn't beaten hawaii...yet. they will and it won't be pretty. hawaii played ok teams and struggled. the match with oregon was competitive because they let it be close. Have to agree on the part where after 13 attempts and zero kills and still no sub for that player. Bad coaching right there. SMH If you are talking, Gaskin at OPP., and I believe you are. Who would you like Robyn to go to. Ross is not the answer, she may get one, or two, kills, if she is lucky, but she is a real detriment when it comes to blocking. Oregon will just go over her every single time. Sibley, is not the answer either, she will do just the same as Gaskin. By the way, Robyn is coaching this team up, it is not her ego that is in the way. The reason she gets so frustrated is that some of the players are not listening. They go off and do their own thing. If all the players just follow the game plan Robyn and her coaching staff put forth, they will be ok. But right now, only some of the players follow the game plan, others just want to go out and play the role of hero. Remember, the Honolulu Little League motto, "WE > ME", all the Wahine players should take it to heart.

if the players aren't listening, then it falls on the coaches. none of the hitters are the answer, i'm saying they need to do something or figure out ways to get the ball down. all they do is hit into the block, or hit a weak ball right to a defender. the majority of the time, hawaii hits the ball right to a defender, not the other teams, they hit it where no one is, i wonder why that is.
here is my nostradumbass prediction. oregon will win again! are you going to oppose that prediction, if so then i know you are a tard.
i don't know why you are so mad at anything i type. how often have i been wrong? hawaii isn't very good, am i wrong there? there's a reason why hawaii teams do well in the little league world series, and it has nothing to do with the we>me

Robyn needs to find a way of putting her best players on the floor. Those players, are as follows, in no specific order: Iosia, Burns, Liva, Castillo, Akiu, Granato, and Williams. Robyn's needs to find a way of having Williams on the floor. She cannot afford to have Williams on the bench, especially on a team that is lacking talent. Robyn can sub in anyone she wants to in the back row, but these players mentioned, need to be playing.

Are you going to torture them until they do listen. I do not care who the coach is, if a player does not want to listen to what a coach is telling them, there is nothing a coach can do.

I do not believe you can, in fact, with you coaching, probably worse.

Have to agree on the part where after 13 attempts and zero kills and still no sub for that player. Bad coaching right there. SMH If you are talking, Gaskin at OPP., and I believe you are. Who would you like Robyn to go to. Ross is not the answer, she may get one, or two, kills, if she is lucky, but she is a real detriment when it comes to blocking. Oregon will just go over her every single time. Sibley, is not the answer either, she will do just the same as Gaskin. I'd be fine with that, especially during yesterday's 2nd and 3rd matches. During the rotation where we couldn't side out (and lost the game), substitute anyone. I really don't care. I see teams do it all the time. I'm a Stanford fan so I'll use them as an example (but I've seen it with many teams when they get stuck in a rotation). Last season, Alade was a better MB than Bowen but if they were having problems when Alade was in front, they'd sub in Bowen. Ditto for McClure> Keefe but you'd sometimes see that sub too. That's why you have the players on the bench. Sometimes, just a different dynamic helps or just as a way to wake the players up, let the coaches talk to the struggling player, whatever. Plus, Gaskin has struggled almost all season. She's a senior. If a player is going to struggle, I'd rather it be a freshman, sophomore, or junior (in that order, assuming they're roughly equal). I'm not saying to intentionally throw away this season for next season but, unless the senior offers significantly more, put in the player who will play more years and probably has more upside.

oh yeah worse than 4 losses, not that hard. it has nothing to do with me coaching. if players don't listen, it is on the coach. players should respect the coach well enough to listen, obviously the players don't respect robyn enough to listen. you could see it from last season when all the players would talk about is not having to listen to robyn scream at them, nothing about her coaching or anything else.
robyn mentions she wants the girls to watch film so they know what the other team is going to do, fine, but she is the coach and it's her job to get the players ready and prepare them the best to win each night. obviously she does not do that.
i obviously have never played a sport or watched a sport so i am clueless when it comes to coaching, so i guess this team would be 0 and 100 if i coached them. with that being said, this team could go winless the rest of the season.

Hawaii, as a team, isn’t as good this year as Hawaii teams have been in year’s past. This is the first time in many years that the Wahine don’t have an AA caliber player on their roster (although Akiu can get there). I’ll acknowledge that much but that’s it. As for tonight’s match, I’m going with Hawaii to win. They competed with Oregon with no presence on the outside. I believe that can improve. I believe “Rios” can step up her game. I’m predicting a Hawaii victory (big fan, I called it!). I gladly embrace the “tard” label.

haha i like your balls, calling hawaii to win. as much as you think i am a hawaii hater, i really hope they do well and win, but it won't happen. i have been wrong a few times and im not afraid to admit it, i was wrong last week when i thought hawaii would sweep sdsu, that didn't happen. i can assure i am not wrong tonight in saying hawaii will lose again. teams know hawaii is not that good, so they turn it on when they need to0. as i stated last year, hawaii players think they are still good and play that way. they think teams will come in and be in awe of the crowd and history. not any more. if they were competitive they wouldn't blow leads late in sets.
it shows up when they quit on that one play where the ball didn't hit the floor. that is all on coaching again. if they competed these things would not happen. you dont' need aa players to win and do better. everyone thinks you need an all american, it helps but not necessary.

Robyn needs to work in Williams at OPP., if she can play there. This girl will do anything to get on the floor. If not that, then maybe, put Liva at OPP, and put Williams at Middle. Robyn cannot afford to keep one of her better players on the bench, at least, not on this team.

nope, never watched volleyball before. coach oregon, she would never get hired at oregon. shes a coach whose teams will win the crappy teams and have no shot against better teams. i am critical because close matches are won or loss because of coaching. up 22-17 and can't close it out, it's coaching. she needs to do a better job of coaching during matches. there is no doubt she was one of the best setters but that doesn't translate to being a great coach. what she saw and did on the court, is not going to happen with these players.

ok i was wrong they didn't score 20, oops but be that as it may, oregon let them score 20, but yeah they got to 20 woohoo, i don't think your goal is just score 20 points. the whole team quit, they "GAVE UP" after the ball went over the net. why are they celebrating, play until the whistle. they had a game plan and didn't execute, once again IT FALLS ON THE COACHING STAFF THAT THEY DIDN'T EXECUTE.
i still don't know why you are all so sensitive when something that isn't positive said about hawaii. grow a pair and suck it up. don't be so soft, all you pansies.
