The legacy of LSU’s Honey Badger will live on in Baton Rouge.
As reported by The Advocate, LSU is renaming its football players lounge after one of the most popular defensive players to come through the program in recent years, Tyrann Mathieu. All that is needed to make the naming of the Mathieu Players’ Lounge official is approval from the school’s board of supervisors at a meeting later this month.
Mathieu’s run at LSU came to an unfortunate end with the star battling drug issues, but his impact and devotion to the program that stood by and supported him every way possible has since been rewarded in the form of a $1 million donation to fund the football complex. Mathieu is currently in the NFL with the Arizona Cardinals.
