Stanford is parting ways with football 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.

"After continued consideration it is evident to me that our program needs a reset," Luck said in a statement. "In consultation with university leadership I no longer believe that Coach Taylor is the right coach to lead our football program."

Luck said the change is effective immediately 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 first probe started six months after Taylor began his job. In the investigation Taylor is accused of trying to remove a compliance staffer who found some minor infractions.

The second investigation, which began last summer, details several other women in the athletic program expressed frustration about Taylor's behavior and treatment.

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