Washington State University's head football coach, Nick Rolovich, and four assistant coaches are losing their jobs because of not complying with the state's Covid-19 vaccine mandate, the university's athletics department said
"Due to the requirements set forth in Washington Governor Jay Inslee's Proclamation 21-14.1, Nick Rolovich is no longer able to fulfill the duties as the football head coach at Washington State University," the department said in a news release. Defensive coordinator Jake Dickert will become acting head coach, it said.The four assistant coaches are Ricky Logo, John Richardson, Craig Stutzmann and Mark Weber, the news release said.
""While I have made my own decision," Rolovich said then,"I respect that every individual -- including our coaches, staff and student-athletes -- can make his or her own decision regarding the COVID-19 vaccine."Rolovich, 41, was named the 33rd head football coach in WSU program history on January 14, 2020. The team went 1-3 last season, which was shortened because of the pandemic. The Cougars are 4-3 this season.
