LSU Football Coach Ed Orgeron Added as Defendant in Title IX Lawsuit

The LSU scandal continues as the university faces a Title IX lawsuit, and head football coach Ed Orgeron has been added as a defendant as well as his L.L.C., “O” THE ROSY FINCH BOYZ, LLC.

The filing alleges the coach knew about and failed to report the alleged rape of a student by former running back Derrius Guice, who recently had four misdemeanor charges dropped. Those charges stemmed from accusations of domestic violence.

The amended lawsuit, which was first filed in April by victims who accuse LSU of failing to properly investigate sexual misconduct allegations, added more detail and allegations against Guice.
