"A number of Washington State assistant coaches have also been terminated, the names of which have not yet been released."

Sad sidenote to the times, although there are much, much sadder, but this one will be but a blip in the storied past of WSU coaching.

Whatever your personal feelings about his stance on the vaccine, at the very least it's no longer a distraction for WSU's football program.

I know a great coach that should check out this job---😁---just kidding I think

Too bad. But state employees have to follow state rules and regulations. And Washington certainly abided by the state and federal  constitution by allowing an exemption from vaccination for religious reasons.

 

Rolo and the other fired guys will find gainful employment elsewhere.

 

An after thought but this is good for Oregon. WAZZU was coming on and had not trailed an opponent in the 4th Q this season before the opponent made a comeback to win the game.

 

I do feel bad for WSU players.

Bye bye, Rolo.

Was under the impression he did attempt an religious exemption.

Good call.  Since this is not a political site, but an Oregon Sports site.
