“I appreciate all of the wonderful thoughts, prayers and well-wishes from LSU fans,” Hawthorne said. “The show of support has been overwhelming. It’s truly humbling to have so many people call, email, and send text messages asking how I’m doing. I can’t respond to all of them, but they are very much appreciated.”
