Beard And Bailey Join Mike’d Up On Monday

December 4, 2016

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Junior Anton Beard and freshman Adrio Bailey will join Mike Anderson on the fourth Mike’d Up of the season, the weekly radio show dedicated to Arkansas basketball at Sassy’s Red House in Fayetteville on Monday at 7 p.m.

The one-hour program gives fans an opportunity to interact with Razorback coaches and players, while also getting a chance to learn more about the personalities they witness on the court. Hosted by the voice of the Razorbacks, Chuck Barrett, the program features interviews with Coach Anderson and Arkansas student-athletes, coaches and staff members. Fans in attendance will also have an opportunity to ask the head Razorback their own questions. Fans can also send in questions to Coach Anderson on the day of each show via Twitter to @RazorbackMBB and by using the hashtag #MikedUp.

Anton Beard has played valuable minutes for the Razorbacks in the first seven games of the season, averaging 8.6 points per game, including a season-high 12 points on two different occasions. He continues to take care of the ball with 23 assists and just six turnovers for a 3.8 assist/turnover ratio. He has been an anchor on defense, drawing three of the team’s seven charges on the season.

Adrio Bailey had the best game of his collegiate career Saturday night against Austin Peay, going 7-of-8 from the field for 14 points, while adding seven rebounds, including four of those on the offensive end of the floor. He chipped in two assists and swatted a pair of shots as he exploded on the scene.

The Razorbacks return to action Tuesday evening, welcoming Houston to town for a nationally televised game in Bud Walton Arena. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. on SEC Network.

Mike’d Up can be heard across the Razorback Sports Network from IMG College throughout the state. To reserve your table for the show, call Sassy’s Red House at 479-856-6366 and tell them you want to get Mike’d Up with Mike Anderson.
