Hawaii football hires Timmy Chang as head coach

Exhale, Rainbow Warriors fans. The drama is (mostly) over.

Hawaii football has hired Colorado State Wide Receivers Coach Timmy Chang to take over the head coaching position at Manoa.

Chang, a prep All-American standout at Saint Louis School (Oahu), starred for the Hawaii Warriors from 2000-2004, where he set the all-time record for passing yards, breaking Ty Detmer’s (Brigham Young) record at the time.

Chang’s coaching career started in 2012 as a graduate assistant at SMU. He would then receive his first full-time coaching job at Jackson State (Offensive Coordinator, Quarterbacks Coach, 2014-2015), then moved on to Emory & Henry (Offensive Coordinator, 2016), before breaking through at the FBS level with Nevada in 2017.
