Utah State football coach Blake Anderson has been placed on administrative leave, ESPN reported Tuesday.
No details were given, but sources told ESPN that Anderson is not expected to return to the Aggies. The Action Network reported the move comes after an unspecified investigation.
Anderson, 55, was heading into his fourth season at Utah State. He has compiled a 23-17 record, including a second consecutive 6-7 campaign in 2023.
The Aggies finished 11-3 during his first season with the Mountain West program in 2021 and won the LA Bowl, finishing the year at No. 24 in the Associated Press Top 25.
Anderson is 74-54 overall including seven seasons at Arkansas State from 2014-20.
The ESPN report said defensive coordinator Nate Dreiling has been named interim coach for the Aggies, who open the season against Robert Morris on Aug. 31.
