Memphis Tigers guard Sincere Parker’s legal saga has come to an end.

“I’m fully invested in this thing — that’s why I’m here,” said Hardaway, who’s posted a 174-83 overall record.

The loss to UAB leaves the Tigers tied for seventh in the American, but Hardaway is not worried about his team’s future or his own; he is focused on the next game.

Memphis fell behind by 16 at halftime and cut the deficit to 3 points with 7:05 left in the game, but UAB held off the Tigers to win in Memphis for the first time since 1999.
