Is CBS play by play man Verne Lunquist overrated???

Is CBS play by play man Verne Lunquist overrated??? This guy has a great prescence...but as a play by play skills are not very good at times. He never gets players right, and simply doesnt know the rules of football at times. He has good stories, but they drag on at times. He might be over the hill?
I've been thinking the same thing for last 5 years or so. It's time to retire Verne!
I believe like a lot of these experienced broadcasters he no longer put in the prep work to sound knowledgable about the many different teams he calls the games of. See/hear the exact same things from Bobby Knight in buckets. He's obviously very wise concerning basketball strategies but doesn't even take enough time preparing to know how to pronounce all the players names
