I don’t know how anyone in the LSU admin survives this

I have know this for years, even mentioned it a year or so ago thinking it was about to break. The entire story soured me a lot on LSU in general



100% LSU is going to get slapped with lack of IC, and tennis was the lynchpin. I cant explain enough how ridiculous it is our ADs, both of them, let it get to this

When I was editor of the Reveille, we stopped covering the women's tennis team after Julia Sell — for some reason — threatened a lawsuit against our reporter. When we did cover them, Sell frequently sat in on interviews we did with players to intimidate them.

This is good work.

This is what happens when you let west coast, progressive elitists and their ideology infiltrate your campus and university.

LSU has needed a major reset for a while. Hopefully this will bring that.

Keep sending TAF your money. They’re going to need an army of legal representation now.

Whatever ends up happening, anyone that helped cover anything up or didn’t take these allegations seriously, I hope are terminated from LSU.

the victim's credibility and behavior did more to undermine this investigation than LSU's incompetence. I agree some heads will have to roll for this but we are hearing one side of the story and LSU is doing some of these girls a favor by not releasing all the documents.

Agreed. Lets not lampoon individual players until their respective stories are fully explained and confirmed but the administration has some answering to do.

We all need to wait to see what the investigations come out with. You can't always assume that what the victim claims is true. People sometimes lie to make their claim look better. I am not saying the lady is lying, but I am saying we really don't know and it is unfair to simply say that the school is wrong.

Did any of these girls go to the police with their accusations?

If not, why not?

Everyone piling onto LSU right now. However, the main common theme that keeps reappearing is who was in charge at the time. It seems we made a good choice in getting rid of F. King Alexander, Joe Alleva, and several other people from that time period. They were terrible for the university and athletic department all around, and it's good we got them out of here. However, LSU needs a better PR director right now to squash some of this #metoo, BLM, and other virtue signaling piling on that's happening in the press right now.

If any of this is true, Coach Sells should be prosecuted.

Drake Davis was dealt with appropriately at the end of the day. Still curious as to why the individual or the coach did not go to the title 9 office to report this stuff.

Almost all of this stuff has been previously reported. Al most all of it was dealt with what appears to be appropriate actions. What is the point. Other than an Orgeron/LSU hit piece.

Hyperbole.

Perpetuating alarmist gossip on this site only hurts the university, and doesn't serve any search for the truth.

I hope those who failed to act are held responsible and punished by the law. Domestic and sexual violence are despicable and those who commit these crimes are the worst of humanity.

Ok just remove the tennis program as our punishment and some administration people. Everybody can move along now.

If you look at her likes on twitter she liked something of Drake Davis’ two days ago. Maybe it was an accident but really strange.
