Whose stock is up and whose is down after the Crossover Classic

The Memphis basketball offseason began much sooner than expected after the Tigers lost to FAU in the first round of the NCAA tournament last week.

Reconciling that disappointment with all the positive strides the program made over the course of the 2022-23 season might take some time.

Beat writer Jason Munz and columnist Mark Giannotto, on this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, try to put everything into context and weigh in on how this season will ultimately be remembered. In addition, Munz and Giannotto dissect the loss to FAU (controversy and all), give their takes on what it will mean for the program moving forward and preview the road ahead for the Tigers.

Contextualizing Memphis basketball's March Madness performance and moving on

Memphis basketball coach Penny Hardaway is building toward something.

Has it taken longer than some people − possibly even he − expected? Yes, it has. But last week's win over No. 2 Houston, then the No. 1 team in the country, clinched the first league championship for the program in a decade. It represents the high-water mark of the Hardaway-as-coach era.

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, beat writer Jason Munz and columnist Mark Giannotto look back on the highlights of the AAC tournament, Memphis' formula for success in the NCAA tournament and why this season's Tigers are positioned to go on a run.

Why Memphis basketball is positioned to go on a March Madness run

The Memphis basketball team is hitting the reset button this week.

The Tigers (23-8) ended the regular season in second place, their best finish since joining the AAC in 2013. But that doesn't much matter in the postseason, when every team has a clean slate. Penny Hardaway's team will be the No. 2 seed at this week's conference tournament at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth. It will face the UCF-SMU winner Friday (6 p.m., ESPNU).

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, beat writer Jason Munz and columnist Mark Giannotto look back on Memphis' regular-season finale vs. No. 1 Houston, examine the team's NCAA Tournament prospects and predict whether Kendric Davis will win AAC Player of the Year.
