HONOLULU — Hawaii’s worst home defeat in program history was the last under Norm Chow.
Chow was fired as football coach Sunday, a day after a 58-7 loss to Air Force dropped the Rainbow Warriors to 2-7.
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 and are on a six-game losing streak.
“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,” Matlin said in a statement.
