Sent a few messages on FB and text and may have tried to kiss one girl. No sex, no dick pics.

Certainly inappropriate but nowhere near bombshell level.

Somewhat agree here but Les has got to know the temperature of the room and apparently kept going after being told to stop.

The advocate, and especially USA Today have a very weird fetish with trying to dismantle LSU

He was not a perfect person....but, He seems like a very convenient scapegoat for the current LSU administration.

Canceled my Advocate subscription and don’t buy USA Today. Too liberal.

You could find as much dirt with an investigation into any other major college program. Nothing burger.

It’s not just the accusations that is the issue, but the constant cover ups the university and athletic department did over the past decade that makes this a lot worse.

How many people became victims because the university didn’t want to pursue allegations of sexual misconduct from players and employees in the athletic department.

It’s not always the action that is the worst part but the lies and coverups that make it 10 times worse.

Having the AD recommend firing and not go through with it is pretty big.

What cover they investigated no laws broken in the Les being a pervert case. Now Guice that is probably a different story.

Except the current admin wasn’t here when this happened.
The people who were supposed to handle this stuff are gone and let a pile of shite in the presidents office.
And why the frick people weren’t told to go thru the Title IX department is beyond me. Was it trying to hide it or was it not being trained well enough to know what to do? You’d think if Verge knew better he’d have just said “report it to TIX office”

This....

It was big enough in 2013 pre-#metoo that the AD recommended his firing.. the lack of initiative by the president is really why this is big.. had miles been fired, the story would’ve ended there

Being alone with multiple student workers was sheer stupidity on his part. The bowling team and other comments made in front of multiple people was also sheer stupidity. Combine those with him having a condo in BR when his family lived in BR and it looks like Les was chasing college tail in the atheletic department.

For a professional of any kind, and it goes double for a CEO/head of an organization, there is never any fishing in the company pond. You don't talk about it, you don't do it. Period.

Agree with LSU admin using Les for some cover. End result will be Les suing LSU and Kansas firing Les for damaging reputation, though the KU firing will be for 3 wins in two seasons.

Certainly enough evidence Alleva suggested firing him.

I agree to an extent. Les certainly isn’t the sole problem as this sort of nonsense has been going on forever. However, you just cannot do what Les and that greaseball Cuomo did in this day and age.

However, Les is still a married man, and thus, a scumbag. I don’t mind if he looks and wants the presence of attractive women around football operations, who doesn’t? But to pursue it, “try” and kiss them (that sounds so creepy), and lure them back to his condo and/or hotel? That’s much, much more than “crossing the line.”

In sum, frick Les and his fake “Goody Two Shoes” persona. He’s a cheat, a liar, and a dope.

The COVERUP by top officials at LSU is the scandal dude. No one cares about Miles's taste for grass or young co-eds. LSU should have fired him at the time, but chose to bury the allegations.
