In 2000, Thomas' last year in Lubbock, he worked with current Hawaii head coach Greg McMackin, who was the Red Raiders' defensive coordinator from 2000-2002.



Inoke Funaki - former Hawaii QB, Funaki signed on as a graduate assistant with the Warriors for the fall. No experience and just finished his playing career, but at this point in the year, options are relatively limited.
