Nick Rolovich is going to be WSU's next football coach and after learning a little bit more about him over the last couple days I couldn't possibly be happier with this outcome. He's a young, quirky, and energetic coach. He achieved a lot at Hawaii with limited resources. He runs a pass-centric run and shoot offense that will work well with our existing personnel, but perhaps more importantly he runs the ball a little bit more and in fact specifically mixes in quarterback runs as part of his ground game. The one question I have at this point is what kind of defense we can expect from him and how he is going to go about improving our team's achilles heal this past season.
CougCenter has a bunch of great coverage:

This video from a couple years ago when he was miked up for practice really captures his personality and player rapport. He seems like an awesome guy to play for.
