Welcome to this week’s Tigers Basketball Insider. Below you’ll find the latest news and analysis from The Daily Memphian’s Parth Upadhyaya, John Martin and Tim Buckley.

Most of the big questions from last year have been answered — except the biggest one of all: Are the Tigers primed to make a deep run in the 2025 edition of the Big Dance? 

That’s where we come in!
