Calkins: The Tigers aren’t having their greatest year ever (but, hey, neither are you)
“I’m proud of my team, proud of myself, proud of my coaches and proud of this program,” Memphis QB Brady White said in an answer to a question asking whether the year could still be considered a success. (Tyler Kaufman/Memphis Athletics)

Geoff Calkins
Geoff Calkins has been chronicling Memphis and Memphis sports for more than two decades. He is host of "The Geoff Calkins Show" from 9-11 a.m. M-F on 92.9 FM. Calkins has been named the best sports columnist in the country five times by the Associated Press sports editors, but still figures his best columns are about the people who make Memphis what it is.
Memphis lost to Tulane Saturday, ending any hope of reaching a fourth straight championship game. Maybe that means the season was unsuccessful. Or maybe, in the time of COVID, we should reevaluate what we mean by success.
