Ray Lucas

[Piscataway_rivals]

is he doing color on BTN?

 

[RUfromSoCal?]

BTN?

Yes.

He's awesome

 

[RU82]

Ray has come a long way as an announcer. He was pretty lame when he first started.

 

[RUfromSoCal?]

Exposure

Recognition

Supporter

He a treasure to this program

 

[ScarletCrimson]

Ray is the man.

 

[Armor and Sword]

Ray is a little more restrained on the tube than he is on the radio. Still good to listen to..

 

[Retired711]

I like how Ray is willing to be critical of our players when they deserve it.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Love Ray, but he keeps saying Morgan Stanley instead of Morgan State.

To his credit though, no Parcells mentions.

Worst announcer in College Football, clown show.

And what do you do for a living?

 

[RutgersLarry]

I like he's a homer, but has messed up names on countless occasions.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Got to love Ray!

BTN always uses the home team's announcers for olympic sports coverage to save money. With the Wisconsin game getting the A Team, they save by using Lucas on a game in which 99% of the viewers are RU fans.

No...he mentioned Parcells

Love Ray.. he may be a meathead, but he is our meathead

[newell138]

I think he is doing pretty good and I'm usually critical of his radio play by play

 

[Rutgers Man 22]

"Lewis needs to take the big fatties to the grease trucks today as a thank you"

"He's a freshman, does he even know where they are?"

Best interaction of the game

When the BTN was showing Bolin on the bench doing whatever he was doing to the other player, I was hoping Ray would shut up as quickly as possible before he said something that would lose him his job. Fortunately, he got through it.

Too funny...I was thinking the same thing

He's good.

What was bolin doing ?

 

[REDRICH65]

I love Ray on TV,

 

[RutgersRaRa]

Love Ray and that he is such a Rutgers homer AND a Jersey homer!!

 

[Plum Street]

Crazy story about Lucas that's in his book. His mom was white. Ray was conceived out of wedlock with an African American man.
But his mom's soon to be husband , a white guy, raised ray as his own and that is who he calls his father .

Lucas has a man-crush on Parcells and it would be inappropriate for him to deride Bolin for his actions. Don't judge others Ray....

 

[HeyHuey]

What was bolin doing ?

He had his arm around the should of the player he was sitting next to and it looked like he was fondling his nipple through the uniform. But shot lasted 2 seconds and it was just a coincidence that they cut to it at that moment. He could have been going for an MMA choke-hold submission for all we know.

I don't even know where they are....they're not in front of Scott Hall though.

I'm so glad this thread was started. Ray Lucas is outstanding--honest, informative , pleasant to listen to, smart , articulate, and a Rutgers man. Most importantly he's not afraid to criticize Rutgers--refreshingly honest

 

[RutgersRockies]

I loved it when, talking about Bolin not throwing away the ball on one play, Lucas said something like, "He has to hit the guy in the fourth row in the forehead with the ball."

Keep your clown show off this Board.

 

[Caliknight]

Ray's great. In an over glossed world, he is a breath of fresh air.

Who is hanging on to the 90's double hoops earrings longer than Ray?!

 

[OriginalKnight]

Love Ray, but he keeps saying Morgan Stanley instead of Morgan State.

To his credit though, no Parcells mentions.

He made one.

You mean we didn't play Morgan Stanley?

 

[Colbert17!]

Maybe he was confused with Stanley Morgan.
It happens.

 

[MozRU]

Love Ray.

Makes listening to games on the radio enjoyable

 

[Big East Beast]

He's great. I don't think announcers need to be completely 'sanitized' of their rooting interests if they provide criticism as well.

I also liked how he questioned the sportsmanship/game planning of running through the first half and throwing when we were up by 40+. He has the perspective of an RU lifer who has witnessed teams roll teams with 'the right way' and those that do not.

 

[ru75]

thoroughly enjoyed Ray...

 

[Armor and Sword]

No one is worse at football color commentary than Ronde Barder. It's not even close. Even Tiki Barber posing as Ronde would be better than Ronde.

 

[RU4Real]

Ray deserves a statue.
