The Hawaii Sports Fans Channel

Hawaii Men’s Volleyball is chasing the biggest prize in the sport, and we ask whether this is the team that can finish the job and win it all. Along the way, we look at the success of the program’s jersey auctions, including the attention-grabbing “unwashed” twist, and why Hawaii should lean even harder into creative fan engagement. We also discuss Jordan Lucas and the national buzz he brought into Hawaii after turning heads last week. Championship pressure, smart marketing, and star power all collide in this episode. (And we beat the 13th Game drum for UH Football. Again.)

Hawaii hoops just got messy: Laura Beeman is walking away after 14 seasons, and Eran Ganot—on the last year of his deal—was handed another leash by the AD. The boys dig into what these moves mean for both programs. Plus: UH men’s volleyball is rolling into postseason— is an NCAA berth all but guaranteed? Come follow the 'Bows all the way to the Natty at UCLA: www.hisportsfans.com, where you can also find your BTS VIP Tours, just as ARIRANG gets kicked off.

After a quick exit at the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, UH now faces the reality of a sticky coaching situation. Has Eran Ganot done enough to keep his job? The Volleybows made a statement in Long Beach, winning two matches in two nights, tasting victory for the the first time in over a decade at the Pyramid, Night 2 in straight sets. Why this was huge for many reasons. The NFL Draft is coming– who we see from Coach Timmy's squad getting that coveted call. Wow! We had an amazing trip in Portland at the Big Dance and immediately to LA for UH MVB and Dodgers/Angels from the Diamond Club. Make sure you know about our next trip at www.hisportsfans.com/tours. For more content, join us on IG @rainbowwrapup @hisportsfans. Mahalo for your LIKES.

The Rainbow Warriors are back in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since Coach Ganot's first year 2016, and the vibe is at a high. Has it been enough to bring the Head Coach back? We talk realistic upset scenarios, the affect NIL and the Transfer Portal has had, and the moments that could flip the bracket. (The Boys both believe you should only make one.) Then it's a full UH roundup––from Wahine Basketball to Men's Volleyball, what to look for down the stretch and how you can join Hawaii Sports Fans to see the 'Bows on the road (www.HIsportsfans.com) and even in Portland as they take on Arkansas in the Big Dance. Make sure you're following us on IG @rainbowwrapup @hisportsfans. 

The Hawaii Football schedule was finally released, and for another year, there are only 12 games, UH once again not taking advantage of the rule created for them. Why?

Winning 10 of the last 15 national titles at the FCS level, North Dakota State is fast-tracking its transition to the FBS, joining the Mountain West just in time for the 2026 season; so what does this mean for the conference and UH, adding a team that's looking to get into the College Football Playoff as early as next year?

The Portal door goes both way: how the portal can be positive for Football like it is for MVB. And why Wahine sports will suffer first in the age of NIL.

When it looked like the team had finally turned the corner, UH gets outplayed at SJSU, even coming off a restful bye week. With so many Hawaii alum on the Sparty sideline, it's no surprise that even with a losing record, the home team would bring added emotion to the field. But, to give up over 400 yards in the first half alone was not what we expected. And then to show no urgency down two scores in the game's final minutes... Where do we go from here? Thankfully, it's still the Mountain West. And the team is still guaranteed a bowl. But with San Diego State in town - the team with the best odds in the MW to advance to the CFP - a spot in the title game won't be nearly easy as it was a week ago.

The Tokyo Toe is everywhere these days, and UH Fans have a right to be excited to have a player garnering national acclaim. But after local politicians rallied to change the back of his jersey, from a romanized version of his name to the Kanji given to him at birth, it riled up one columnist in Hawaii, someone acclaimed in her own right. Did Timmy just get his mentor fired? It appears that just moments after the 'Bows layeth the smacketh down on the Rams, the CSU AD delivered the people's elbow to Jay Norvell's tenure. Could Colorado State be targeting their old assistant coach? Yes, that one. Keep the show going without outages: support us at www.patreon.com/rainbowwrapup

Surrendering nearly 500 yards on Defense, it was the 'Bows Offense that dominated the Falcons, putting up the most points since Timmy Chang took the reins.

Entering as 2 TD underdogs, the 'Bows left the Valley a 1-point victor, giving Coach Timmy Chang a signature win against a rival on the road.

UH Athletics will align under the Mountain West banner with subsidies phasing out, which is a good thing. Yet despite having to foot some bills for the conference, the Big West had its advantages for UH. The PAC-12 is also still looking for a member while the MWC is equally desperate to get to 8 full members; the pool of available schools shrinking everyday. Certainly UH had a lot of leverage and was able to use it - and there is more security remaining FBS into the future now -- but was this the "best" outcome? Come join us at a Big West game in the Spring!
