| FTBL Ed Orgeron directly implicated in LSU sexual misconduct case as more Derrius Guice allegations emerge

Former LSU Tigers and Washington Football Team running back Derrius Guice had criminal domestic violence charges dismissed Wednesday, but more allegations have emerged, according to a report published Friday by the Baton Rouge (La.) Advocate. Three more women have come forward in the Title IX lawsuit against LSU in regards to the university's mishandling of sexual misconduct allegations, adding to the accusations against Guice.

The updated complaints also add LSU head football coach Ed Orgeron as a defendant for failing to report a rape allegation properly.

According to the lawsuit, former LSU student Ashlyn Robertson alleges Guice raped her while she was incapacitated at a party and later bragged about the sexual act to the football team. Robertson says her boyfriend, an unnamed LSU football recruit, learned of the sexual assault and approached Orgeron about it.

"Orgeron responded by telling Robertson's boyfriend to not be upset because 'everybody's girlfriend sleeps with other people,'" the lawsuit says, according to the Advocate.

Guice was arrested in August 2020 on domestic violence charges, including one count of strangulation, a felony. The report stated that Guice was also charged with three counts of assault and battery and one count of destruction of property. Washington released him shortly after the news of the arrest surfaced.

Weeks after his arrest, Guice was accused by two former LSU students of sexual assault during his days with the Tigers in college. And then again in mid-December, details emerged in a Title IX case against the LSU football program and its handling of allegations of sexual assault. The school announced in March that Guice's name and records will be wiped from LSU's football history. He's also been accused of sexually harassing a 70-year-old security guard at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome during his time at LSU.

 
On a different note, slightly different, let's consider what a prospective coach may be looking at when he considers an offer.

LSU is a good job, but is it a job you want to take on with sanctions?
Good ?
but is lsu the most under achieving CF job in the SEC ( ok. uGA may be).

they always seem to not hire the brightest star ( until NS) ( Paul Dietzel and McClendon were dang top of line)
they have one of the top HS football programs,
fan base, money, etc
A top line HC could well put them in the company like UgA appears to be growing to. They already recruit Great regardless who is there

hope they keep O personally. He fits their current persona
 
LSU is a good job and I believe Lane would do very well there. (his father should have used his working belt on Lane instead of taking him to Chuck E Cheese)
Whether he'd do well isn't the point I was referring to in that comment. It's a toxic environment right across campus. While they hired a good baseball coach—and make no mistake, Arizona is crumbling: look at the number of coaches that have left recently—he was jumping ship.

The photo of Big Ed and his Baby Mama swimming in the pool was a very bad look. You and I could coach LSU to a 7-4 record yearly. You will have to do most of the work because I am at the doctor often.

The tiggers love to claim title to being dbu but that’s open to debate by Florida, Bama and weakly by Ohio State. What’s not debatable is they’re definitely one of three programs to hold the title of ru. More female students have been raped by LSU players than any other program in the country other than Baylor and perhaps even Tennessee. Of course Penn State and Michigan would be included if all forms of sexual assault were included.

All of which makes me so angry. The NCAA goes full bore after program’s for relatively minor incidences of recruit contacts and/or for relatively minor impermissible player benefits. Yet other than Penn State, no other program has received severe penalties for multiple rape and sexual assaults which show systemic issues at those universities. Girls shouldn’t have to fear being sexually assaulted and raped by their classmates. And parents shouldn’t have to worry about their daughters and sons being sexually assaulted and raped by other students or coaches while attending college.
