After graduating from Connecticut School of Broadcasting in 2009 and spending several years at WFAN in NYC, Mike Carver jumped at a chance to join Scott Ferrall’s crew on Ferrall on the Bench with CBS Sports Radio in 2016. Carver then joined Ferrall on Sportsgrid in early 2020, bringing his love for in-game and prop betting. Catch Carver on Ferrall Coast to Coast, Ferrall on the Bench, and In-Game Live.
