All that was left was to negotiate the exit. Even though the allegations against him occurred at LSU, we take these matters very seriously at KU, Long said Friday in announcing he had placed Miles on administrative leave while Kansas conducted a full review.
Miles longtime attorney, Peter Ginsberg, said last week that the reports didn t say what people thought they did and accused Kansas of bowing to “media blowback.”
“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,” Ginsberg said in a statement Saturday. “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.

Kansas placed head football coach Les Miles on administrative leave Friday night following two consecutive days of damning reports about his behavior with female students while he was at Louisiana State University.
Kansas will do a “full review” of the allegations against Miles, athletic director Jeff Long said in a statement. The school was not able to see the Husch Blackwell and Taylor Porter reports, both of which detailed alleged inappropriate behavior by Miles with female students at LSU, until their release, Long said.
“Today, I placed head football coach Les Miles on administrative leave as we conduct a full review to determine the appropriate next steps,” Long said in his statement. “Even though the allegations against him occurred at LSU, we take these matters very seriously at KU.
