The documents, included in this account of Orgeron’s history, are relevant in light of a widespread probe of LSU football pertaining to sexual misconduct dating to the tenure of Les Miles, who was coach from 2005-16.

Orgeron has declined an invitation to appear this week before a legislative panel seeking testimony related to an alleged crude sexual overture from then 20-year-old Derrius Guice, star player on LSU’s 2017 team, against a 70-year-old security guard at the Louisiana Superdome. The worker in question, Gloria Scott, testified at the Capitol on March 26, declaring she informed Orgeron of his player’s behavior. The coach through a spokesman initially denied the conversation happened and later amended his statement to contend he does not recall speaking with Ms. Scott.

Orgeron was a 30-year-old Miami assistant coach when a Florida woman persuaded a court to order him to stay away from her. He has acknowledged a substance abuse problem at a time when his career was advancing.

Orgeron’s personal life unraveled with a university employee seeking protection in court. She claimed Orgeron repeatedly attacked her. He was ordered to cease any contact with the petitioner and to undergo treatment and counseling.

Two months after the restraining order ended, Orgeron was charged with second degree battery for his actions in a bar fight in Baton Rouge. He left Miami and did not return as a coach until 1994 as linebacker coach for Nicholls State.
