Sharon Lewis, LSU’s associate athletic director of football recruiting, claims she was harassed and retaliated against for years after reporting former football coach Les Miles for sexual harassment according to state and federal lawsuits filed this week, first reported by USA Today.

Attorneys for Lewis says they will file a Title IX lawsuit against the university after their client claims she was underpaid and "tormented and discriminated based on sex and race" after blowing the whistle on Miles.

Lewis detailed several interactions with Miles, who according to Lewis through USA Today's reporting, "repeatedly pressured Lewis to replace Black student workers on her recruiting staff with blond women or light-skinned Black women whom he considered prettier." Lewis refused and said she was later pressured by others to comply to the head coach's demands.

Miles allegedly insisted LSU have "prettier girls" work in its recruiting office, Lewis says.

Lewis, among other detailed accounts of being harassed, also recalled former LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger's recruiting visit, after which Miles allegedly commented that the program's "recruiting girls were ugly" compared to those he saw previously while coaching at Oklahoma State.

LSU needs the death penalty.

ETA

Amazing how LSU fans will blame everyone else for cheating but totally gloss over what their program has done the past 10 years.

Is this today's thread in which we pretend that only LSU had this approach?

Not at all. Anyone serious about recruiting has this approach. Everyone else (except maybe the 2009 version of Lane Kiffin) has better sense than to say it out loud.

I'd be pissed if LSU wasn't cheating.

As I said, she is the wild card.

The more she talks, it won't be good for LSU.

Miles, probably:
"Zach has a strong want for big blonde titties. I'm told he likes dat azz too."
