Wayne Yates was an All-American center who led the program as head coach for five seasons after being an assistant coach. 

Emmanuel Akot, the Boise State transfer who signed in June, has enrolled at Western Kentucky, according to CBSSports’ Jon Rothstein.

Memphis Grizzlies fans are weighing in on the team’s newly released 2022-2023 game schedule. 

Jahmar Young Jr. announced that he will not be attending Memphis this season six days after he committed to the Tigers. 

Head coach Penny Hardaway will still have Larry Brown’s basketball knowledge at his fingertips heading into this season. 

Jahmar Young Jr. announced his commitment to the Tigers on Saturday. 

Penny Hardaway said Alex Lomax is leaning towards returning, and he will continue to look for additions to his roster this summer. 

The University of Memphis basketball program is hiring an assistant coach with links to former Duke leader Mike Krzyzewski, according to reports.

This year will mark 15 years since Derrick Rose, Chris Douglas-Roberts, Antonio Anderson, Joey Dorsey and Robert Dozier came closer to a college basketball title than any other Memphis team. For that, they deserve to be recognized.

The Tigers got a commitment from international player Ian Granja on Saturday morning, who played last season in the Czech Republic U19 League.

Penny Hardaway has selected a replacement for Rodney Hamilton as director of basketball operations.

The University of Memphis’ 2022-2023 men’s basketball schedule includes seven games against teams that played in either the NCAA Tournament or National Invitational Tournament.

The opening games of the ESPN Events Invitational are set. 

In his fifth year at the University of Memphis, Penny Hardaway has assembled his most experienced roster ever. He’s added AAC Player of the Year Kendric Davis. He’s added talented wing players Emmanuel Akot and Keonte Kennedy.

At one point earlier this summer, a source said, “It’s on him if he wants to come back.”

In an ideal season, these are the performances that will lead the Tigers back to the NCAA Tournament. 

The Tigers jumped in the running for two of the best shooting guards in the country.

Quinones scored 19 points and grabbed five rebounds in the Warriors loss to the Lakers on Monday.

Even though Hardaway accomplished his primary goal last season, he understood that the path Memphis took would be unsustainable going forward.

Finding the right combinations should be much easier for Penny Hardaway this season.

Memphis is ranked in the top 20 in NIL compensation.

Hardaway continues to put together a challenging nonconference slate for the Tigers.

The Memphis Tigers’ coach now can avoid certain lineup dilemmas and focus on an experienced roster.
