Jim Hawthorne

Fans of LSU throughout Louisiana were shocked to learn of another major change announced by the University of Alabama's football program.

After more than three decades someone other than Jim Hawthorne will be the voice of the LSU Tigers. Chris Blair will debut behind the microphone for tonight's season opener against Cincinnati.

LSU has announced Jim Hawthorne's replacement after he retires and it will be Chris Blair who comes from Georgia Southern University.

If you are a big LSU sports fan and have ever listen to a football, basketball or baseball game over the radio, then you are familiar with the voice of the LSU Tigers Jim Hawthorne. Well last night, Jim called his final game at Alex Box Stadium in Baton Rouge.

Ok so If you know me personally, you know that I am a huge LSU Tigers fan! Being in radio all of my life I have also been a big fan of Jim Hawthorne who is the voice of the LSU Tigers.
