I know that the coaches are extremely high on Hafoka. He is very quick on his feet, but strong (as are most of the Tongans out of Euless Trinity). Those stats are pretty impressive for Hafoka at Tyler JC. Even if he plays every game and starts (which he did), the nature of JC ball is that they have to play lots of people - that's why people got to a JC - to get seen. On average, I imagine that most JC starters might only get 50% of the snaps at a position - with obvious exceptions at QB.
I look forward to seeing Hafoka and the other line addition, Dewan Edmondson, in the spring.

Saw Hafoku for the first time on campus today. Definitely passes the eyeball test.
Did you know that he and the Ngungutu's are cousins?
Speaking of the Ngungutu's, one is in Guatamala and the other in Honduras.
