Steve Addazio is out as Colorado State football coach after two seasons, sources told ESPN on Thursday.

Colorado State finished 3-9 this season and lost its last six games. Addazio was ejected from the season-ending, 42-point loss to Nevada because of two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.

Addazio's buyout dropped from $5 million to $3 million on Thursday. Colorado State was 1-3 in Addazio's first campaign in 2020, a season shortened because of COVID-19 issues.

Addazio was previously the head coach at Boston College (2013-19) and Temple (2011-12). He was a part of Urban Meyer's staff at Florida for the Gators' national championships in 2006 and 2008.

ESPN's Adam Rittenberg contributed to this report.
