Seems like the Mocs are getting quite a D-Line coach in Vantz Singletary. It's a shame this article makes it sound like a 'step down' for the coach, but it's good to see a quality coach putting his dreams of coaching in the NFL or coaching at a place he's loved on hold for his family. Nice little story about Reggie White below too...

UH coach Singletary leaving for I-AA
The defensive line assistant is taking the step down to be closer to family

Once, he brought a passive defensive lineman into his office and put him on the phone without telling him who was on the other side.

It was the deeply religious Reggie White. And after a fire-and-brimstone speech from the now-deceased Hall-of-Famer, the meek player went out and had the game of his life.

"The Dog Pound" won't be the same without Vantz Singletary.

Singletary, the free-spirited but dedicated Hawaii defensive line coach, is leaving Manoa for a similar job at Tennessee-Chattanooga after seven years with the Warriors.
