Very upsetting news out of Memphis tonight - Corey Beck and a friend were shot during an attempted robbery. He’s currently recovering in the hospital, where he’s listed as being in fair condition (updated from critical condition earlier - certainly a positive trend).

The AP update as of Wednesday night reads:

“Beck was shot in the hand and face but managed to drive his car to a fire station. He was taken to The Regional Medical Center in critical condition, but had been upgraded by Wednesday.”

Corey Beck was the heart & soul of those great mid-90s basketball teams and remains one of our all-time favorite Razorbacks. Please join us in keeping a good thought for him and wishing him a speedy recovery.
