Went to cover the OIA football semis tonight and got to talk to Vince Manuwai and Lance Samuseva. Both seem to be doing well and were overjoyed with Farrington’s win.
Jason Kaneshiro checks in from Utah:
The team is staying Ogden and had its walk-through at Weber State’s practice field, where Ron McBride and Chad Kauha’aha’a stopped by to visit. The original itinerary had them going through the walk-though in a parking lot in the hotel property. Alex Gerke was busy visiting with some of the Weber State coaches he worked with the last two years.
Portland State is also staying in the Ogden Marriott. The Vikings face Weber State tomorrow. Haven’t run into Jerry Glanville or Mouse Davis as yet.
