UCF's McKenzie Milton and Bama's Tua Tagovailoa are Polynesian pals we could all learn from

Wouldn’t it be great if all of the other quarreling, quibbling players and fans at UCF and Alabama were more like their Hawaiian-born quarterbacks – McKenzie Milton and Tua Tagovailoa?

Aloha Kakou.

“May there be love between us.”

In Hawaii, it is custom to greet people with a kiss on the cheek. And, so, when McKenzie and Tua talk – as they often do -- there is no bickering back and forth about who deserves to call themselves national champions. There is only mutual admiration and respect among the boyhood buddies who now find themselves among the top quarterbacks and Heisman Trophy contenders in college football.
