Mountain West basketball player of the week A.J. Walker scoring more for Air Force in new role

Hawaii’s starting quarterback Chevan Cordeiro announces that he is leaving the program, enters transfer portal
First Jake Haener and Dae Dae Hunter, now Chevan Cordeiro. So far, the new age of the one-time transfer rule isn’t being kind to Mountain West programs. Boise State’s Jack Sears also elected to enter the portal. I hate to say this, but more transfers to come, I think.
Hawaii’s fan base is understandably outraged at the moment.
