One year since our interview with #ColtBrennan, former NFL and UH RB Reagan Maui'a joins the show to talk the need to name the #HawaiiFB on-campus "Colt Brennan Field" to properly honor his former teammate. Maui'a opens up about the mental challenges that face himself and his teammates and why it's important to "be real". He gets started around the 48:00 mark. Beside naming the field, we look at how the school can most appropriately honor the Legend as it prepares to open up to only 9,000 fans on campus this year--University of Hawaii Athletics retiring the number 15 would go a long way. We talk Season Tickets, H-Club, whether you donated more, plus all the latest with #HawaiiFB so join us in the comments! BIG MAHALO for subscribing to this podcast!
