James Arthur Raye, Jr. (born March 26, 1946) is an American football coach and former player. He is currently as Senior Advisor to NFL Vice-president Troy Vincent. A book written on his career by award-winning sportswriter Tom Shanahan was published in September 2014 by August Publications. The title is "Raye of Light." The subtitle is Jimmy Raye, Duffy Daugherty, the integration of college football and the 1965-66 Michigan State Spartans. Tony Dungy, who considers Raye a mentor, wrote the Foreword. ==Playing career== As a player, he was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams for the position of cornerback but was quickly traded to the Philadelphia Eagles. In college, as a quarterback, he was the backup for the Michigan State Spartan football team that played in the 1966 Rose Bowl and started for the 1966 Spartans in the famous 10-10 tie with Notre Dame, a game often referred to as "The Game of the Century." He was the South's first black quarterback to win a national title on the 1966 Michigan State team out of segregated E.E. Smith High in Fayetteville, N.C. The first black quarterback to win a national title was Minnesota's Sandy Stephens in 1960. He was from Uniontown, Pa. Raye and College Football Hall of Famers Bubba Smith (Texas), George Webster (South Carolina) and Gene Washington (Texas) arrived at Michigan State from the segregated South as part of head coach Duffy Daugherty's Underground Railroad.
