USA Today: LSU knew in 2018 that officials kept allegations against athletes in-house

Two years ago, a report by Louisiana State University’s lead Title IX investigator showed that top athletic department administrators skirted the school’s sexual misconduct policies by keeping allegations against athletes in house.
Yet LSU did nothing to correct the problem at the time, USA TODAY found. It required no additional training for athletic department officials. Nor did it investigate whether the same officials had mishandled other allegations against athletes.
Now, LSU is under fire after a USA TODAY investigation found officials in the school’s athletic department and broader administration repeatedly ignored complaints against abusers, denied victims’ requests for protections and subjected them to further harm by known perpetrators. In response to the investigation, LSU is paying an outside law firm, Husch Blackwell, up to $100,000 to review cases and determine whether any wrongdoing occurred.
This article is very long, very detailed, and very, very bad for LSU.

Kinda seems like LSU as an institution lacks a strong degree of control over its own activities.

Time to clean house in the entire administration and any coaches who know about it.

Looks like the AD office will get hit big time, and the tennis coach for sure. Already fired the Prez/AD who allowed this BS. We will see what else the NCAA sends down but it does not seem O is implicated.

No worries, that self-imposed bowl ban on a 4-6 season will stave off any additional sanctions.

I believe college football has already peaked and we're on the downhill slide. It's just a reflection of society. The left coast is already done. Then again college football is the least of problems for this country. Hang on.
