So his decision to cover up the abuse makes him good people?

That is a very distorted view of what really happened. You choose to believe the worse in him based on biased reporting. If he had truly done anything egregious, he would have been terminated. The president at the time was Thomas Galligan who is extremely well respected. Based on the totality of the circumstances, Ausberry's "failure" to report the battery did not rise to the level to warrant anything more than a suspension. There was no indication that he acted with Malice or tried to do anything nefarious to the two athletes in question. There was also no indication that he committed any self-serving actions or acted with ill intent. He used his discretion that he thought was in the best interest of the two athletes. Now, the rules have been changed and clarified and there is no discretion allowed for non-reporting of alleged abuse no matter how slight or credible.

I am sure that some other than I objected to retaining Verge, but...

Your analysis is epistemically misplaced. The single act of not fulfilling his duty to report was sufficient to terminate him without much discussion. This is a serious allegation and he had no way to know it was not true any more than you know what you what you are saying. He made a plan with that football player to cover it up. Do you just not get this or are you just too emotionally attached to LSU to see it objectively. Rousse upped the ante of this farce by making him "acting AD". WTF does that even mean? The entire thing is absurd and disgraceful, but you do you.
