Maravich Fired as LSU Basketball Coach After Six Years
Press Maravich is dismissed as LSU head basketball coach after six seasons.

The university will honor his $17,000-a-year contract through 1973. Pete Maravich, LSU alum’s son, rose to college basketball all time scorer and led LSU to notable upsets before turning pro with the Atlanta Hawks.
