Stanford football fired coach Troy Taylor amid allegations he mistreated female staff members.

The move was announced Tuesday by Stanford Football General Manager Andrew Luck days after a report citing documents said more than 20 current and former staffers cooperated with the two investigations that included complaints against Taylor for what are described as hostile and aggressive behavior, as well as personal attacks.

In a statement released on X Luck stated: “After continued consideration it is evident to me that our program needs a reset, in consultation with university leadership I no longer believe that Coach Taylor is the right coach to lead our football program.”

According to the general manager,  the change is with immediate effective and a search for a new head coach has started.

“Our focus remains on supporting our student-athletes and ensuring they have the best possible experience on the field, in the classroom, and on campus with their peers,” Luck said.

The documents revealed both investigations determined that Taylor’s treatment of employees, particularly of women, was inconsistent with Stanford’s standards.

The second investigation concluded that Taylor retaliated against a compliance staffer who had found seven minor NCAA infractions by “seeking her removal from her assigned duties.”

Taylor was set to enter his third year as Stanford coach after back-to-back 3-9 seasons.
