Zimmerman Joins Lineup On Mike’d Up
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Arkansas Director of Basketball Operations and radio color analyst Matt Zimmerman will join Mike Anderson on the seventh 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.
Zimmerman enters his sixth year with the program and his first as the director of operations, overseeing the day-to-day happenings within the program, including on-campus recruiting, student-athlete visits, team travel, summer camps and the budget. He is also in his first season alongside Chuck Barrett as a color analyst for the IMG Razorback Sports Network.
Along with 20 years of coaching at the high school and college ranks, Zimmerman’s ties to Arkansas date back to his days as a student when he served as manager at his alma mater under Naismith Hall of Fame head coach Nolan Richardson.
The Razorbacks are 12-3 to start the year and return to Bud Walton Arena Tuesday evening to host Mississippi State at 8 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.
