Hawaii Senior Quarterback Colt Brennan RETURNED to practice today, going against the scout team, not seeing any action against the First-Team Defense.It marked as Colt's first's participation in practice since suffering a "mild" concussion in Saturday's 37-30 victory over Fresno State. Head Coach June Jones answered the question of who would be the starting Quarterback if the game were today, as "Colt would play." NOW, if Colt is somehow UN-ABLE to take the field...Junior Tyler Graunke will be next in line. He took the majority of the snaps today, with Sophomore Inoke Funaki also seeing some action against Hawaii's First-Team.
Warriors hit the road at Noon...Kick-Off on Friday Night scheduled for 6:05pm HST (ESPN2)

Good News regarding Colt.
Thanks for the updates.
I hope he's not pushing it though. I'd rather see him at 100% then trying to force himself.
yeah, me too. I find it hard to believe though with all the doctors around the team that they would let him risk it. Either way Colt, Tyler, or Enoki the rest of the team have to carry the load. Because I don't care what anybody says, Colt will not be 100% even if he does play.
I honestly think we bring him on the trip but don't use him unless we fall behind early. I think Graunke can win this game on his own.
Colt looked good today...
He made all his throws and moved around really well.
Graunke also had an efficient practice. I talked to him a bit after wotrkouts and he's feeling real confident right now if he's needed on Friday.
Thanks for the Support Guys and Have a Great Day!

I can't remember a time when people were so anxious about a UH Football game. The closest for me is probably when UH played BYU when Ty Detmer won the Heisman. But even that was different because we had nothing to lose. THis fridays game is HUGE!
That's too bad Little Matt won't play. I think with a healthy UH team they could give Illinois a hard time.
Thats great to hear!! I'd love nothing more than to see Colt taking the snaps, Other than taking that title from Mr. Kanoa Leahey! The future champ is coming look out Kanoa!!!
Good call L (to da) B. I would hate to see Colt at anything less than 100%. He seems like the type of QB to never show he's hurt, though.
Big congrats to Eric Wedge! He deserved the AL Manager of the Year. Though, I wouldn't really mind if Terry Francona had won it.
So Whiteshoes, I'm guessing you're Dustin's 3rd cousin 4 times removed?
On the button, Kalae! Most people guess 2nd cousin thrice removed.
I am impressed.
