but when you think LSU is better off having Verge, of all people, fall on the sword for this program over this bullshite, you might as well be my enemy.


Verge fricked up badly. He’s a complete moron for what he did (or didn’t do).

I imagine it’s because, according to The Advocate, the Husch Blackwell report states “Ausberry is a longtime and valued employee who has contributed greatly to LSU’s black community in particular.”

Enablers should be fired regardless of race, gender, or alumni standing

Remember, the super highs at LSU had some advance warning on this report. Which means they had time to think about discipline.

What they handed out (set suspension plus "continuing education") is fully showing they have no intention to fire. Now, maybe because of this blowback, they will.

Verge is a good guy


Good guys make mistakes. Sometimes, they are worthy of being fired.

No doubt he will learn from this and after time will get another chance, but it needs to not be at LSU.

Email the athletic department and demand Segar be fired immediately. I did. We may finally be able to get rid of this bitch if everyone complains.

Verge knows where the bodies are, all the skeletons in the closet, etc. And he’d sue LSU in a heartbeat. Woodard and Co. know that. Verge has the golden ticket.

Perfect chance to show some black privilege by firing her and keeping Verge

The fallout would be the best LSU TV since the national championship

Thank you for saying all this about Verge.

I see people saying he didn’t report a rape. Have you read the report ? Cmon back off ,Verge did what he was trained to do. Maybe that training was bad but let’s not bring a Good man down

If you demand her firing you have to be ok with Verge being firing

I don't care how long they have been there and what kind of job they have done in the past. Both messed up royally and should be fired.

Keeping both employed is a bad look on LSU.

It’s a terrible look. Not only that but you allowed the excuse of “ignorance and lack of clarity“ as the reason they were not fired. When you are an executive level leader if you are unclear of anything you have the responsibility to seek clarity. You are held to a higher standard than the ground level secretary. They both chose to live in the gray area because they knew it provided them flexibility to cut corners

You were paid to be the one that provides clarity in leadership.

Not only that but we all know Joel Alleva does not make decisions alone. Miriam and verge were in the conference room when Joe was weighing out what to do in light of the Baylor investigation. They agreed on the “Tell Miriam instead of Title IX Office” strategy despite 30 years of title IX training between them.

Huge stain on the University keeping them

He wasn’t trained to cut a student off when they’re about to tell him a story that would trigger the mandatory reporter clause. He flat out talked over a student telling them he did not want to hear it

Verge is a keeper of secrets. He is the dude that cleans up messes.

He’s the Winston Wolfe of LSU Athletics (pulp fiction reference)

Why shouldn't Austin or Jaiden be offered a scholly?

No child should have to pay for the sins of their parent(s).

If the shite gets really bad, they may decide to go elsewhere to get away from the noise.

The suspension might just be to get their orders straight before termination you have to think
Hopefully that's just what it is.

GTFO for both of them........

I do completely agree with this. It’s hard for me to listen to their excuses considering their position and salary. IMO this was a chance for LSU to start fresh and they blew it.
