Hey Jim, thank you! I would really enjoy meeting you and working with your kids. Since I live in Hawaii I don't have any short-term travel plans to the East Coast.

But I do have relatives in New England and the Mid West so maybe someday I'll be in your area.

I know this is a long shot idea but last year this organization put together an all-star team of graduated players from small high schools in Texas, Oklahoma, and surrounding states and brought them to Maui for two summer games. Maybe you could start something like that over there and bring them here for a game. It was lots of fun and there were some representatives from small colleges there to talk to the kids about continuing their education and playing football at the next level...
