Mikahael Waters joins the University of Hawai‘i Rainbow Warriors football staff in 2016 for his first year as a graduate assistant under first-year head coach Nick Rolovich. Working on the offensive side of the ball, he assists with coaching the wide receivers.
Waters comes to UH after two seasons at the University of Nevada as a student assistant where he worked on offense with Rolovich, and opposite of fellow graduate assistant Makana Garrigan. Waters assisted the Wolf Pack quarterbacks, ran drills and scout units, helped prepare practice plans, was a game-day signal caller, and assisted in all areas of recruiting.
Waters got his start with the Wolf Pack in 2013 as a student manager. He was also part of the staff that took Nevada to the 2014 New Orleans Bowl and the 2015 Arizona Bowl in which the Wolf Pack defeated Colorado State.
Born in Cape Town, South Africa, Waters moved to the U.S. when he was four years old. He earned his bachelor’s degree in business administration from Nevada in May 2015.
