When Week 1 of the 2024 college football season officially begins, LSU fans will quickly notice that a prominent voice is missing from the radio broadcast.
Doug Moreau, a longtime color analyst for LSU Sports Radio Network, won’t be part of the broadcast crew this season.
Moreau, a former All-American for the Tigers, is recovering from surgery. As a result, he’ll need to sit out this fall and focus on his health.
Fans have become accustomed to hearing Moreau’s voice during LSU games. After all, he’s been part of the LSU Sports Radio Network since 1972.
“On behalf of all of us at LSU Athletics, we will truly miss having Doug on the air this season and wish him a speedy recovery,” LSU Deputy Athletics Director Clay Harris said. “We are looking forward to carrying on the tradition of following the action on Saturday Night in Tiger Stadium on the LSU Sports Radio Network. Alongside our flagship station Eagle 98.1 FM in Baton Rouge, affiliates across the region, streaming audio, and satellite radio, LSU Football radio broadcasts can be heard by thousands of Tiger fans across the globe every week.”
We certainly hope Moreau makes a full recovery from his medical procedure.
LSU’s radio crew for the 2024 season will be headlined by Chris Blair, Jacob Hester and Gordy Rush.
On Sunday night, LSU will take on USC in its season opener. That should be a thrilling matchup for football fans around the country.
