Doug Moreau was not only an all-American for the Tigers in 1965, but he was also the longtime District Attorney in Baton Rouge from 1974 until 2009.

This announcement comes after LSU announced that longtime Public Address announcer, Dan Borne will be away for most of the season as he focuses on his health.

So yes, there are some big changes this season surrounding LSU Athletics and some of the most noticeable will be via the broadcast in and out of the stadium.

We wish Moreau a speedy recovery. LSU kicks off its season on Sunday, September 1, 2024, in Las Vegas when they take on the USC Trojans.
