Cue Willis Nelson.

For the fourth time in five weeks, Hawaii football coach Norm Chow says the first voice heard at Thursday’s team meeting will be that of the iconic singer-songwriter.

“We put on Willie Nelson and we sing ‘On the road again,’” Chow said. “That’s what we do to have fun.”

The problem for the Rainbow Warriors (2-5, 0-3 Mountain West) as they pack their bags for the mainland again is that the season is increasingly playing out like a sad country song.

Chow promised Hawaii would head to Reno, Nevada, for Saturday’s 10 a.
