Stanford coach Troy Taylor has been the subject of multiple investigations relating to his conduct toward staffers and women since he took over the football program following the 2022 season, according to a report published by ESPN on Wednesday afternoon.

The investigations, which ESPN says cite more than 20 current and former members of the athletic department, reportedly found an “ongoing pattern of concerning behavior” by Taylor that included making “inappropriate” comments to a female staffer about her appearance, seeking to intimidate and remove a compliance officer, who was also a woman, and generally displaying behavior described as hostile and aggressive.

Stanford did not immediately respond to a request from this news organization to confirm the investigations but provided the following statement from Taylor to ESPN:

“I willingly complied with the investigations, accepted the recommendations that came out of them, and used them as a learning opportunity to grow in leadership and how I interact with others. I look forward to continuing to work collaboratively and collegially with my colleagues so that we can achieve success for our football program together.”

Taylor, 56, was hired from Sacramento State in December 2022.
