Not Greg, but I'm quite confident its his older brother.

He just doesn't describe the action as well as radio play by play guys in past

He is a great game announcer, but I have him as 2nd best in the entire state.

I struggle listening to Locke. He sounds like he’s trying to hard to come

Locke is great with stats, but the energy, emotion, and the speed he calls the

He’s horrible to listen to. Nails on a chalk board horrible.

This has got to be quality trolling. This is the guy you'd rather listen to?

Such an annoying voice!

That was a terrible call and I'm glad he expressed that as such.

Um. Wut?

He's okay, but doesn't provide detail like Paul James did.

This is true. Wrubell will never be in the same league as PJ.

Wrubell is a top notch sports show host, however.

Belboz

Paul was making up 85% of that detail

I love listening to his excitement for BYU. Makes me feel like I have a friend who understands me calling the game.

8/13/22 11:12am

I sat next to him on a plane, very arrogant guy! I said hello and he looks

Chazz Reinhold

I know Greg pretty well and trust me he is not arrogant contrary to the fact

Agree. This one time, I saw Wrubell at a grocery store in Provo.

He’s average, at best, and his excitement voices are terrible and over used

This became very apparent to me as I’ve tried listening to other local announcer

SotaCoug

Smiley because of the depressed tone coming through. But it’s one reason he’s so good- authentic.

Wrubell is a treasure. So good at his job, and you can tell he really loves it.

He’s a “not nice word” in real life…

I'm a not nice word sometimes too.
