Mike Anderson unhappy with Dick Vitale comments during Kentucky game

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas coach Mike Anderson took to an ESPN-affiliated program Monday to voice his displeasure with one of the network's biggest names.

During an interview on the SEC Network's Paul Finebaum Show, Anderson indicated longtime college basketball analyst Dick Vitale was out of line with comments he made during the final minutes of Sunday's SEC Tournament championship game between Arkansas and Kentucky. The Razorbacks committed two flagrant fouls in the final 65 seconds of their 82-65 loss.

Vitale especially was vocal about a hard foul by Arkansas senior center Moses Kingsley, who was assessed a Flagrant 2 and ejected for hitting Kentucky's De'Aron Fox in the face while trying to block a shot with 1:02 remaining.
