J.T. Mapu

Isn't he coming back this season, and if so will he be in school in time to participate in spring practice?

Funny, I heard that on a mormon mission the participant is only allowed to write letters, and can only call home twice a year. So, no one really knows what kind of shape the guy is in...

I think I heard he will not be available until July.

I think you're right.

I don't think he'll be ready to go. I would say it will take a while to get his strength and quickness back. Hope I'm wrong though.

Maybe riding the bikes around town have kept him in shape. The
Mormons are really big on moderation. I just don't know if it applies to flyin Hawaiins.

If I'm not mistaken, he has a redshirt year to use, so if he's not in shape then he could use that to prepare for '07.

Mapu PixI'd say JT looks pretty fit, wouldn't you??? In fact, he looks more fit than when he played. This kid is cut.

One would think with the dedication he has shown while on his Mission Trip, he would have also been working out in someway to be fit. His dedication is the thing which stands out to me. We need that on our Team. Dedicated to hard work and Team work. What a leader he should make. Can't wait to see him back.

BIG KAHUNA! :biggrin2: :air_kiss: :wub: :yahoo:

Is he gonna play end or tackle?

 

[OrangeEmpire]

He was a DT was he not?

 

[Jacksonian 5151]

He did play DT when he was at UT but I thinf it was because they needed bodies there.
