Former LSU OL Coach James Cregg Admits Violating NCAA Rules in Lawsuit Against School

Former LSU offensive line coach James Cregg acknowledged violating NCAA rules while employed by the school in a lawsuit filed Wednesday.

According to Glenn Guilbeau of the Lafayette Daily Advertiser, Cregg told an NCAA official in May he had given gear to a prospective recruit while visiting him, which was also against NCAA rules at the time, during a dead period for recruiting amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The admission came as part of Cregg's lawsuit against LSU in which he alleged he was fired without cause.

The Tigers confirmed Cregg's departure in June. Guilbeau shared a portion of a letter from head coach Ed Orgeron to Cregg addressing his ouster: "You also admitted to knowing such contact was impermissible when you engaged in the conduct. This knowing violation of NCAA rules constitutes cause."

Cregg is contending, however, that his admission doesn't amount to a justification of firing him with cause since the NCAA didn't issue any official violations, per Joe Gyan Jr. of the Advocate.

He also said he requested a hearing with LSU and that the school didn't oblige.

LSU was already under the NCAA microscope before Cregg's lawsuit.

UCLA football turns comment made by LSU coach Ed Orgeron into shirt creation

UCLA is making sure neither Ed Orgeron nor LSU forgets anytime soon the Bruins' 38-27 victory over the Tigers last Saturday, especially in light of the coach's comments to a fan before the game.

The official Twitter account of UCLA football updated its header to include a blue shirt that reads: "SISSY BLUE," with a scripted U and Jordan Brand Nike symbol. The Bruins are clearly throwing shade at Orgeron, who was caught on camera exchanging trash talk with a fan as Orgeron walked into a tunnel at the Rose Bowl.

"Bring your ass on, in your sissy blue shirt," Orgeron shouted at the fan.

LSU running back John Emery Jr. is out for the year, listed as "unavailable" by head coach Ed Orgeron when he announced the news at his Monday press conference. Emery's status is tied to academics, sources confirmed with Geaux247.

"Right now, he's unavailable. Things could change," Orgeron said on his weekly Zoom call. "If they do change, we'll play him. Could they change? Yea, but that's out of my control."
