Penny Hardaway's Memphis basketball team is No. 21 in this week's Associated Press Top 25 and 25th in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll.

The Tigers are 10-3, and have more Quad 1 and Quad 2 wins (eight) than any other team in the nation. They've beaten UConn, Michigan State, Clemson, Ole Miss, Missouri, San Francisco and others. 

Does Hardaway have a gripe? 

Beat writers Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan weigh in on that on this week's Tiger Basketball Podcast. In addition, Munz and Dylan offer their takeaways from the last week, discuss the addition of Dante Harris, preview AAC play and wonder what the Tigers will have to do to keep drawing large crowds.

Penny Hardaway says the Tigers are under-ranked. Is he right? 

Memphis basketball coach Penny Hardaway guided the Tigers to a 2-0 ACC road trip over the past week. 

Because of that, the team is occupying more space in the within the national landscape than perhaps it ever has under Hardaway. Memphis is 9-2 overall with seven of its wins qualifying as valuable Quad 1 and Quad 2 victories. 

With still more resume'-building opportunities ahead (Mississippi State and Ole Miss bookended around Christmas), all of the Tiger's big-picture goals are as much or more within reach than they were before the season began just more than six weeks ago. 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, beat writer Jason Munz and host Jonah Dylan dissect Memphis' win over Clemson and Virginia, and what the best part of the team's start is.

Memphis basketball took a "bad loss" on Sunday, falling to Arkansas State at FedExForum. 

This is after the Tigers beat UConn, Michigan State, Missouri and San Francisco (among others). Does that mean the Tigers are "doomed" to repeat the same movie that played out last season? 

Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan answer that question, preview upcoming games against Clemson and Virginia, and discuss what Clemson coach Brad Brownell said about Saturday's game against Memphis.
