Norm Chow fired at Hawaii

HONOLULU -- Norm Chow was fired as Hawaii coach Sunday, a day after the Rainbow Warriors dropped to 2-7 with a 58-7 home loss to Air Force.

Athletic director David Matlin said Chris Naeole will finish the season as interim head coach.

The 69-year-old Chow was 10-36 overall and 4-25 in the Mountain West Conference in four seasons at Hawaii. The Rainbow Warriors are 0-5 this season in the Mountain West.

"I'd like to thank Coach Chow for his dedication to our football program for the past four years," Matlin said in a statement. "Ultimately, we feel this decision is in the best interest of the university and athletics department and we need to move in a different direction."

From Honolulu, Chow took over the Hawaii program after a long run as an assistant coach with BYU, NC State, USC, the NFL's Tennessee Titans, UCLA and alma mater Utah. He was the offensive coordinator on national championship staffs at BYU in 1984 and USC in 2003 and 2004 and coached Heisman Trophy winners Ty Detmer, Carson Palmer and Matt Leinert.

Hawaii went 3-9 overall and 1-7 in the Mountain West in 2012, dipped to 1-11 and 0-8 in 2013 and was 4-9 and 3-5 last season.

Norm Chow is an awesome coach and I'd be so pumped up to have him on our staff next year.

I would have loved to have him 10 years ago. He's now 69 years old and I'm afraid that the college game has left him behind.

We already have a great QB coach on staff. We are just not utilizing him.

I'll go coach at Hawaii, for 1/10th of Chow's salary....
