(Rick Egan | The Salt Lake Tribune) Utah State Aggies head coach Blake Anderson, complains about a call, in Football action between the Brigham Young Cougars and the Utah State Aggies, at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo, on Thursday, Sept. 29, 2022. Anderson was fired in July for launching his own investigation into a domestic violence arrest of one of his players in 2023. That was one of the actions cited by the Department of Justice on Aug. 21, 2024, when it slapped USU with a letter of "substantial noncompliance" for not following through on a 2020 agreement to address sexual misconduct within the team.
