ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- For the third season, the Michigan Sports Network and University of Michigan men's basketball head coach John Beilein will team up for the John Beilein Radio Show. Hosted by Ira Weintraub, the live radio show will begin on Monday, Dec. 14, and originate from Pizza House in Ann Arbor.

The John Beilein Show will be held live Monday nights starting in December, with the exception of two dates -- Feb. 3 and Feb. 17 -- which are altered due to the travel schedule of the Wolverines. There are 14 total shows scheduled with the possibility of additional shows during the postseason.

Once again the show will be broadcast on 1270 AM WXYT in Detroit, on 1050 AM WTKA in Ann Arbor and will be available via the internet at MGoBlue.com.
