The LSU Football program vacated 37 wins from 2012-2015 as a self-imposed penalty after receiving a notice of allegations from the NCAA back in March of 2022.

The wins were vacated because former LSU offensive lineman Vadal Alexander competed while ineligible his entire career. Per The Advocate:
quote:

LSU self-imposed the penalty in its response to the NOA, which the school received March 2022. The penalty remained confidential until the final ruling was released Thursday.

Alexander was ineligible because his father was paid $180,150 in funds embezzled by former head of the Our Lady of the Lake Foundation John Paul Funes. According to the case decision, they were introduced in early 2012/early 2013 by the LSU assistant athletic director for football operations.

Funes, the panel said, offered to employ Alexander’s mother at an OLOL hospital and his father at the foundation. Though Alexander’s father received recurring payments for almost five years, the decision said, he worked no more than five events.

The infraction was considered a Level I violation.

I think it's safe to that LSU didn't even get its moneys worth out of V. Alexander.

37 wins in 4 seasons is a pretty incredible run. Sucks to have it end that way.

You can vacate win, you act like Darius Guice didn't play for us. Doesn't matter. We know what happened.
