The Rainbow Warriors also boast six players from American Samoa, three from Australia and one from Japan.

Rolovich also served as a UH assistant coach under KEY DEFENSIVE PLAYERS Greg McMackin ( ), including two seasons as offensive coordinator. In his first year as OC, UH topped the NCAA in passing yards and finished 6th in total offense. At 37-years-old, Rolovich is the eighth-youngest head coach in the FBS.

At 37, he is the eighth-youngest head coach in NCAA Division I FBS and the youngest to lead the Rainbow Warriors since Dick Tomey in Regarded as one of the top offensive minds in the country, Rolovich has proven an accomplished play-caller in operating the Run and Shoot, as well as the Pistol offense. The former UH offensive coordinator and record-setting quarterback returns to Mānoa from Nevada, where he aided the Wolf Pack to bowl eligibility in three of the past four seasons as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Under Rolovich s guidance at Nevada, quarterback Cody Fajardo made NCAA history in 2014, reaching 9,000 yards passing and 3,000 yards rushing in a career only the second player in NCAA history, following fellow Wolf Pack signal caller Colin Kaepernick, to reach that mark. In addition, he tutored Bryant Moniz to 10,169 career passing yards during his tenure at Hawai i. Since joining the Nevada staff in 2012, Rolovich s Wolf Pack offense has ranked as high as eighth nationally (2012) in total offense, generating 2,786 yards passing with Fajardo at quarterback, while boasting a seventhranked rushing attack paced by Stefphon Jefferson s 1,883 yards. During his time in Reno, the Wolf Pack made three bowls: the 2012 Gildan New Mexico Bowl, the 2014 R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl and the 2015 NOVA Home Loans Arizona Bowl. Rolovich s first coaching stint at UH was wildly productive from , directing one of the top passing offenses in the nation. He was the quarterbacks coach all four seasons and spent the final two years as the Warriors offensive coordinator. For the latter three years of his time with the Warriors, he had play-calling duties, while UH threw COACHING STAFF for 13,915 yards an average of yards per game and 96 touchdowns. That includes the 2010 season in which Hawai i led the nation in passing offense (394.3 ypg) and finished sixth in total offense (500.6 ypg). That year, Rolovich mentored former walk-on quarterback Moniz to the top of the NCAA charts in passing yards, total offense, and touchdowns, and to an eighth-place ranking in passing efficiency. Moniz s favorite targets were receivers Greg Salas and Kealoha Pilares, both of whom spent time in the NFL. Salas finished his career as the school s all-time leader in receiving yards (4,345), while Pilares is eighth in all-purpose yards (3,379). Rolovich was a two-year letterwinner at quarterback for Hawai i from , starting the bulk of the 2001 season and leading the team to an 8-1 record as a starter. He passed for 4,176 career yards and 40 touchdowns and still holds six school passing records.
