Ilaisa Tuiaki Mic'd Up
Linebackers/special teams coach Ilaisi Tuiaki connection with Beaver head coach Gary Andersen dates back to 2003 when the shifty running back from Provo, Utah was a team captain at Southern Utah University.
Today he serves on the defensive side of the ball as the staff helps form an identity in the first year of the Andersen tenure. Coach Tuaiki has the challenge of molding a group of young linebackers and special teams players, which he also mentors for the Beavers.
The OSU video team takes you up close with the former rugby player.
The response has been strong to the Coach Andersen hire as season ticket sales are pacing at a feverish rate. You can join Beaver Nation for the entire year for as little as $150. The season kicks off Friday, Sept. 4 at Reser Stadium vs. Weber State in a nationally televised game. To get in on the action go to beavertickets.com or call 800-Go-BEAVS during business hours.
