Method

Every quarterback who played at Hawaii since 2004, ranked by passing yards over his games there. Bowl and playoff games count.
The numbers here start in 2004, so a quarterback who played at Hawaii before then isn't here.
A decade counts his passing yards at Hawaii in its seasons.
The record book's numbers are the school's own. Where they and the box scores differ for one player, the box scores are missing a game or count bowls another way.
A quarterback still playing at Hawaii is counted at tonight's numbers against the record book's, which run through the 2025 season.
