Rudy Macklin Featured This Week on Tiger Tracks

BATON ROUGE, La. – LSU Tiger Tracks, a program highlighting various aspects of the university and its athletic department, can be seen at 6 p.m. CT Wednesday on Cox Sports Television.

The show, hosted by Jordy Hultberg and Bill Franques, is a 30-minute production featuring interviews with LSU administrators, coaches and student-athletes, along with a look at some of the events and scholarly activity on campus.

LSU Tiger Tracks this week features a visit to the studio from LSU men’s basketball legend Rudy Macklin, an All-American who led the Tigers to the 1981 Final Four.

Macklin, whose jersey was retired by LSU in 2010, will discuss on his thoughts on evolution of the Fighting Tiger basketball program and the recent announcement that the university will retire the jersey of All-American point guard Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf.
