LSU's Ed Orgeron disputes portrayal of conversation with ex-player over Derrius Guice allegations

LSU football coach Ed Orgeron on Thursday said a quote attributed to him by a former player regarding allegations that running back Derrius Guice raped the former player's then-girlfriend in 2016 is not accurate.

On Wednesday, USA Today published a report in which two former students said they were raped by Guice when he was a freshman and that they shared their allegations with multiple people at LSU, including at least two coaches, an athletics administrator and a nurse.

According to the report, the former boyfriend of one of the women, who himself was on the football team, said Orgeron brought up his former girlfriend a year after the alleged assault occurred.
