LSU's Ed Orgeron accused of ignoring sexual harassment allegations against former player

BATON ROUGE, La. -- A 74-year-old woman told state lawmakers Friday that she spoke directly to LSU football coach Ed Orgeron about sexual harassment she said she endured in 2017 from one of his star players, adding he did nothing to reprimand the running back.

Gloria Scott, a security worker at the Superdome in New Orleans, said then-LSU player Derrius Guice walked up to her with his friends at an event and told her: "I like having sex with older women like you" and "I want your body," among other vulgarities while rubbing his body.

"I have never felt so embarrassed," Scott, who is a grandmother, told lawmakers during an appearance in which she broke down at times in tears.
