You would think with 40 years in the business, Chow would have a network of coaches that would want to coach in Hawaii. You would be wrong.

Just bad timing because Chow will probably wait until after the recruiting period to hire a new DC unless he promotes from within. Daronte was also the associate head coach so if anything happens to Chow...... I don't see anyone on the current staff who is ready to take over the program.
Jordan Wynn? :-

Like someone from Utah?

I would argue that dismissing Greg McMackin at the cost of $500,000 to hire a lame head coach was the cause of this worst-of-all-case scenarios. Lame coach fires awesome coaching staff...which opposing coaches quickly snap up...now, ironically, the fired coaches are now hiring Norm's replacements.

I won't miss Klune because, like all of Chow's replacements, he was only ever temporary.
Actually if Clune had hung around and helped Chow turn things for the better he may have ended up with an inside track for the HC job. I don't think that Chow has many years left ih him.
I wouldn't want anyone with ties to Chow as our next head coach. The program needs a fresh start, someone that will fire up the fan base.
