I absolutley despise you people who continously find the need to bitch and gripe about a guy that has given past 25 years of his life to LSU....
Hawthorne hasn't "given" anything to LSU. He has been paid well over those years for his work. The guy has a nice cush job with all expenses paid when he's on the road. Don't make it out to sound like he's busting rocks or something.
That said, I have no real opinion on whether he should stay or go. Some broadcasts he is fine and others well.....

Jim has his problems, but I guarantee you whoever takes over for him will have more gripes than he ever did.

I know Jim and he's a nice guy. Do I like his playcalling? Not particularly but to sit back and act like he doesn't do a damn thing is ridiculous. The man is god damn 70 years old and calls every game during baseball/basketball season and is head of all broadcasting communications (which is a fulltime job on top of his regular broadcasting). He's not paid that well for his hours he puts in per week on average.
Be critical of his performance all you want but don't act like the man doesn't work for his money. Jesus.
