Is Memphis basketball ‘doomed’ to replicate last season’s script?

[ad_1]

Memphis basketball took a “bad loss” on Sunday, falling to Arkansas State at FedExForum.

This is after the Tigers beat UConn, Michigan State, Missouri and San Francisco (among others). Does that mean the Tigers are “doomed” to repeat the same movie that played out last season?

Penny Hardaway doesn’t think so. Why?

“Because we’re healthier, mentally and physically,” he said recently. “We have a really good team. This year, I think that we have enough guys that can guard, even though we didn’t do it (against Arkansas State). And we have enough guys that take pride in, ‘OK, we lost this game, but we’ll bounce back.’ “

On this week’s episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Tiger basketball beat writer Jason Munz and Tiger football beat writer Jonah Dylan share their own thoughts on the subject. They also look ahead to the upcoming games against Clemson and Virginia, and discuss what Clemson coach Brad Brownell told The Commercial Appeal about Saturday’s game against Memphis.
