Ray Tucker has become synonymous as the "Voice of the Little Rock Trojans," having been associated with the department for the last 35 years. Tucker has served as the play-by-play radio voice of the Trojans since 2000, calling some of the most memorable moments in program history, including Sun Belt Championships and NCAA tournament appearances in 2011 and 2016.
 
Tucker has served as the host of numerous Trojan coaches shows on both television and radio since 1984, dating back to when he was the Sports Director at KTHV Channel 11. A two-time Sportscaster of the Year for the state of Arkansas, Tucker won a pair of Best Play-By-Play honors from the Associated Press Broadcasters Association for his calls against Baylor in 1988 and Arkansas State in 1993.
 
Tucker has made a lasting impression on the sports media landscape in Arkansas outside of his involvement in Little Rock Athletics. He has worked in a play-by-play and analyst capacity for Arkansas Razorback, Memphis Tiger and Oklahoma State football broadcasts and hosts Ray Tucker's Arkansas Outdoors, the top outdoor radio show in the state, while also serving as a co-host for DrieveTime Sports on 103.7 The Buzz. Tucker also served as the Executive Director of the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame from 1998-2014.
