Coach Les Miles in trouble ...

You can't possibly watch College Football, predicated on the murky world of recruiting, and think College Coaches are men of high moral fibre, right?

You're not that naive, surely?
I love that murky world of college football recruiting. I never said college coaches are honorable or trustworthy. Being faithful to your wife has nothing to do with naïveté. It’s a choice and some people choose to honor that commitment. I don’t think ones profession is the determining factor. I think believing that in itself is, could be deemed as naive.

"Miles faces allegations that include "texting female students, taking them to his condo alone, making them feel uncomfortable and, on at least one occasion, kissing a student and suggesting they go to a hotel after telling her he could help her career,"

From the allegations this doesn't sound like reciprocation from gold-diggers/ladder-climbers etc. Sounds like Les is just a creepy old man. CFLCane might be right for once...

The events of the past twenty-four hours are deeply disturbing. Eight years ago, LSU hired Taylor Porter, a preeminent law firm, to conduct an extensive and thorough investigation of allegations lodged at Les Miles. Under the guidance of one of the nation’s leaders in the area of gender discrimination and harassment, Taylor Porter concluded that Coach Miles did not engage in any conduct that constituted sexual harassment and that there were no grounds to discipline Coach Miles. Now, eight years later, LSU, in the wake of enormous pressure from the NCAA for conduct that has nothing to do with Coach Miles, issued a report conducted by Husch Blackwell. The report revealed no new evidence. Indeed, Husch Blackwell did not even bother to interview Coach Miles or many other key witnesses but, instead, second-guessed the Taylor Porter findings and conclusions without providing any basis for doing so. Bending to the winds of media blowback, Kansas has now decided to put Coach Miles on administrative leave. Before the release of the reports this week, Kansas had been provided with significant information supporting Taylor Porter’s conclusions. KU also had performed thorough due diligence before hiring Coach Miles. Kansas’ decision to put Les Miles on administrative leave is both disturbing and unfair. To fail to recognize that a person’s career should not be compromised by unsubstantiated allegations hardly is consistent with the example an institution of higher learning should champion.

A school hired investigative firm found what they were paid to find, nothing. This is more predictable then Nkosi clapping at the line. Funny how after he was "cleared" in that investigation he was banned from being alone with female staff and the AD wanted him fired. Sounds eerily familiar to the Sandusky and Baylor blind eye strategy.

well said.

That’s not really the point. That statement is spot-on. If there were flaws in the original investigation, then you have to do the work to prove it. Failing to even interview the guy at the center of it is weak. (Now if they tried and he refused, different story.) But the reality is the new story is a reaction to external pressure and a cheap slinging of tar on people associated with the past. And it’s not just about Miles or the football team at this point. He’s a convenient fall guy.

That's the thing about private internal investigations by third party law firms...they're nearly impossible to audit by design and in fact they help bury evidence further by putting them behind a wall of attorney client privilege. Interestingly enough he settled for 5 million less than he was owed on the way out.....i wonder what that kind of discount was in exchange for......hmmmm.

Pretty odd an SEC HC takes a pay cut on a buyout then goes jobless for 2 years. Looks like a duck, quakes like a duck, walks like a duck.

Some of these same posters who are offended by this- are the same ones applauding bio males being shoved into bio females locker rooms and sports.
 
That old saying the old timers have about “don’t shlt where you eat” generally holds true. Legal is not the issue.

Workplace relationships are generally unavoidable, but when they involve an imbalance of power, there can be trouble aplenty.

Not to mention possible future accusations of harassment. I’ve had a few in the past and was lucky, and actually ended up getting married on my last one, but I was also lucky and also didn’t harass anyone.

I’ve also seen a couple of guys lose careeers because of workplace relationships.

I haven’t read any details about Les, but he just sounds like a horny old dude that should have done his pūssy hunting elsewhere. Bad idea to do it in the workplace. And if he was actually harassing the women, shame on him.
He could have Rick James'd it anywhere out and about in Baton Rouge. "I'm Les Miles, *****!"...he did have a national title and everything, after all, and millions of dollars.

I never understand the workplace relationship...even if you don't get into the imbalance part of it, you still have the awkwardness when things inevitably go south. Just seems like too many headaches, and that's before getting into the other legal weeds you might have to tromp through.
