Utah State University announced the firing of head football coach Blake Anderson due to 'significant violations of his contractual obligations.' The decision came after an external review revealed that Anderson failed to comply with Title IX policies related to the reporting of sexual misconduct cases.
The university cited specific breaches, including Anderson's involvement in investigating sexual misconduct cases, which should have been handled exclusively by the USU Office of Equity. Additionally, Anderson was criticized for not managing the team in alignment with the academic values of Utah State University.
