My “too early to predict” take will be OHs….Clay and Louis(because both have D1 level experience and have played at high level at times….Louis was very inconsistent but may be due to coming in late). OPP….Tristian…..because I think he is someone that could be special in a year. Need to get him time to work out the kinks. MB…Ofeck and Kurt……due to no other big time MB at this time and because both are physically more mature and developed than anyone else. S…Tread….end of story. L…..Eleu….Kai still not ready. First off the bench will probably be JT and Adrien at OH……Park and Thompson at MB and Finn at OPP. Vlad at S and Kai at L. The “B” team looks much better than the “B” team of last season but there is weaknesses in the MB position. The pins could be easily be starters so I like our attacker’s position. Wheels will give Kai a good run for his money at L. Kids a baller and looks like the future at L for the Bows

I think this class is big enough. Probably don’t need any more “projects”. I would think it would be wiser to look for 2026 (class of 2025) then to overload this year’s class, it’s only a couple of months before schools starts so it’s cutting it close. Bring in some more studs with Roman Payne and the potential Sourh American 🔨 for next year's recruiting class. If Stavros turns pro, we might need to get Noa Dufloss Rossi. http://instagram.com/p/C8T854sotMw The chances of little Mouch going pro looks slim. If you look at who liked this post, JT, Thiim, Marumoto, Akana and Galloway all liked it and I'm going to assume there is more since you can't view likes up to a certain point. 🇬🇷🔜 ? seems pretty cryptic to me, specifically creating a new post after the first day of contact between coaches and players. If he we're to go pro, he would most likely sign in two years. In other words, I don't think he's going pro but will be a Warrior and possibly leave early if he's good enough.

He's honestly got some good potential there too, and since he doubles as Defensive, he offers a lot more options than just a serving specialist offers. I'd like to see him cover a Pin in the back row or something.

I can see that as a possibility. Maybe big bro, coach Wade and Milan convinced him to give college a try for one year. If he doesn’t enjoy the experience, he can alway turn pro. After all, every single Greek that joined the team have become All Americans. Stavros is in that class.

Yeah…I noticed that there is not a lot or any video of Stavros. I don’t recall seeing many video of Dimi also. There were a few of Dimi jumping and working out but j don’t really recall much video on Dimi either. Maybe the family is not into videos. Dad’s a coach so he probably one of those who would rather watch the game than video tape it. The kid is obviously very talented being the top point getter in a CEV U17 tournament recently and was said to be pursued by UH, LBSU and Pepperdine. I’m sure other schools are after him too.

LB might be out of the picture. Luke Reynolds (ex Charleston HC and now assistant at Pepperdine is now following). If he commits with Lamoreux (u19 beach champions and Hartke (u21), I'll be shocked.

It's either UH or pro. We see what happens.

I mean he's the brother of a former teammate for most of those guys, so if they're scrolling on IG, they'll probably just like the post. Nothing cryptic here

This class is large and hits the short term and long term needs of depth/bench and championship calibre starters. koavball said we could expect up to 12 new Warriors. Wade will sign after the Fall semester so that's 10. And then there were rumors of a transfer middle (possibly Aruya) and another international recruit. Possible that the latter two didn't materialize, which is normal. I do think Hawaii could use one more experienced middle that could contend for playing time, but other than that, this is as strong of a recruiting class Hawaii has put together given the team has finally transition from the last big recruit class that included Galloway, Voss, and Chakas. The foundation is there for the future that's for sure and it made sense that 2024 would be *that* class, which it has turned out to be. koavball also said 2025 could potentially be better. We have Payne as a top-tier middle in that class. We'll see who else comes with...

He’s probably still short a few classes to get into UH so I think he will spend the fall semester at Kamehameha to get the necessary classes before getting into UH.
