Putting 2 and 2 together: USU had 3 reported cases of FB players engaged in rape

and/or sexual assault last year. The press release says Anderson is being fired for mishandling reporting in the spring of 2023, and it relates to title IX. Sounds like Anderson tried to cover up the reports of sexual assault by his players or failed to report them.

Obviously he made mistakes which is why he got fired but it's disappointing to

But that wouldn't have triggered anything related to Title IX, would it?

I don't claim to be a Title IX expert. But the USU statement expressly calls

I've heard he's a good dude, maybe deserves a second chance, don't cancel Blake

Jul 2, 11:50am

If he’s covering up stuff or not reporting things timely, that’s a major problem

Come on BlueCoog, I bet it only happened one time. No big deal. Your Aggie hate

I’ll trust the USU admin on this one. They did an external investigation. If 3

Nah, you don't get fired for a 1-time violation.

If he denied it happened wonder how its different than at Utah

stansburycoug

Jul 2, 9:27pm

It’s different because theres been MULTIPLE reported instances of SA/DV

cougfan03

Jul 2, 9:45pm

No it was proven one time..multiple incidents and likely more

stansburycoug

Dang. A long of history of problems at USU with this issue.

BlooCoug

Jul 2, 1:22pm

That’s going to be tough to hire someone good there. Seems obvious that something is wrong with some of the players,
