It’s not a great time to be a Memphis sports fan. The Memphis Grizzlies have been struggling this season, and that’s before star point guard Ja Morant injured his calf.
The Memphis Tigers men’s basketball team just experienced its worst home loss since the team lost to South Florida in March 2018. And, the defeat came at the hands of UNLV, headed by none other than former Memphis coach Josh Pastner.
Memphis Tigers football has also been lackluster. The team is facing its sixth year in a row to not make the conference championships.
To put this all in context for us, Daily Memphian editorial director Mary Cashiola talks with sports editor David Boyd.
