Per the Advocate

quote:

Long-time LSU radio announcer Jim Hawthorne will sit out the Arkansas game after undergoing an undisclosed medical procedure two weeks ago.

Patrick Wright will again handle the call, as he did for last week’s game at Alabama. Wright will also fill in for Hawthorne for Friday’s men’s basketball opener against McNeese State.

LSU sports information director Michael Bonnette said Hawthorne is recuperating nicely and hopes to call the men’s basketball game Nov. 19 against South Alabama. He will likely not be allowed to travel to Ole Miss next week but hopes to be back in Tiger Stadium for Texas A&M on Nov. 28.

Hawthorne, 71, announced his plans to retire earlier this year following basketball season. Last week’s game ended a string of 387 straight LSU football games he called dating to 1984.

Hope he gets to at least do the A&M game and get a good send off.
