Colorado State has fired head coach Jay Norvell after a 2-5 start, multiple outlets reported on Sunday.

The news came down a day after the Rams endured a 31-19 homecoming loss to Hawaii in front of a Canvas Stadium record crowd of 40,416.

Norvell, 62, managed just one winning mark over four seasons in Fort Collins, an 8-5 mark a season ago that resulted in an Arizona Bowl loss.

Overall, he finished with an 18-26 record with the Rams.

Norvell's tenure in Fort Collins followed a more successful run with Nevada, where he posted a 33-26 record with three bowls in five seasons (2017-21), leading to his hiring at Colorado State.

Colorado State is scheduled to move from the Mountain West to the Pac-12 next season.
