NEWS: Sources confirm to @BKubenaand me that Les Miles offered a secret settlement an LSU student intern who he was accused of "hitting on" about a decade ago. All being probed as part of the Husch Blackwell report.
Former LSU head football coach Les Miles reached a settlement with a former student who accused him of harassment several years ago, and the settlement has surfaced as investigators probe the university’s handling of sexual misconduct and domestic violence complaints, multiple sources with direct knowledge of the situation have confirmed to The Advocate | The Times-Picayune.

It's a cultural problem at this point. Accreditation will be on the line for LSU when the feds, Title IX and Clery Act investigations get done. That affects a university's ability to get fed money. Not good since LSU was already in a bad financial situation even before the pandemic.

Well maybe the "Les Miles has on off-campus apartment for his side-pieces" rumors have some legs

"It was a obvious misunderstanding. Have you heard my client speak in public before? When he said he appreciated this woman's chest he clearly meant her work ethic."

LSU fans knew Leslie was up to some shite with his apartment.

The episode goes back about a decade, when a former LSU Athletic Department student intern accused Miles of “hitting on her,” three of the sources said.
“As part of the Husch Blackwell review and our internal investigations, we have heard about a settlement but LSU is not a party to it and we have not seen it,” LSU Vice President of Strategic Communications Jim Sabourin said when presented with the allegations Wednesday.
quote:
Reached by phone Wednesday, Miles denied that he made advances toward a student intern. “That’s not true,” he said.
He did not directly address questions about the settlement. A longtime attorney for Miles, New York-based Peter Ginsberg, said in an email Wednesday that a description of Miles’ settlement with the student was “discernibly incomplete and inaccurate, and its publication would recklessly cast Mr. Miles in a false light.” Ginsberg did not immediately respond to follow-up questions about whether he was denying the existence of the settlement itself.

It’s unclear how prominently the Miles allegations may figure into the Husch Blackwell report, but the settlement may have led to a larger review at the time of how Miles treated female students at the university. Eight years ago, Miles, now head coach at the University of Kansas, was the subject of another investigation by a Baton Rouge law firm, court records show.
Miles has intervened in a case in Baton Rouge district court in an effort to prevent LSU from releasing the law firm’s investigation into him.
The records show that USA Today — which in November broke the initial story that prompted the Husch Blackwell investigation — filed a lawsuit against LSU last month. That was about a month after a reporter for the newspaper filed a public records request with the university seeking an “investigation report by the law firm Taylor Porter into former LSU football coach Les Miles.”

So there were multiple investigations? What's this one about?

The long-buried settlement — which does not turn up in searches of Baton Rouge court records — has come to light amid a larger review of how LSU has handled allegations of sexual misconduct and domestic violence cases, the sources said. The law firm Husch Blackwell is expected to deliver a report late next week that examines how LSU has handled a number of cases over the years, including allegations of sexual assault and domestic violence involving LSU football players. Some of those incidents happened under Miles’ tenure; others happened after current head coach Ed Orgeron took over in 2016.

Now would be the time to cast this in a non-false light....
