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

Memphis football has officially ushered in the Charles Huff era.

The Tigers' new football coach was introduced Dec. 10, when he made clear, "it's time to win a championship." Anything less is a goal unreached. 

On this special football edition of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jonah Dylan and Jason Munz put a bow Ryan Silverfield's somewhat complicated tenure as Memphis head coach and set the stage for Huff and the immediate future of the program.

Special edition: New Memphis football coach arrives in 'Huff City'

The Memphis Tigers, nine games into the season, are still searching for a signature win. 

Maybe they'll get it against No. 12 Vanderbilt on Dec. 17. If so, it could prove that the issues from the monster loss at No. 11 Louisville are correctable. 

Will Penny Hardaway's team bounce back and get that marquee victory it needs in a bad way? 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan revisit the yuckiness at the "Yum!", attempt to hone in on the most troubling aspect of the performance, and wonder whether Memphis can pull it together sooner rather than later.

Why the Louisville loss might be a one-off and why it may not be

The storied Memphis-Louisville basketball rivalry resumes Dec. 13, 2025, after an eight-year hiatus. 

And, for that, we are thankful.

In fact, we should never again be left to wonder when the next time the Tigers and Cardinals will play. They should square off regularly no matter what. 

In this case, the upcoming meeting at the KFC Yum! Center is the first of a six-game series that will end during the 2030-31 season. While we hope a new agreement to extend the series will be in place by then, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan dive into the rich history of the long-standing feud on this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast. 

In addition, Munz and Dylan look forward to the game between Penny Hardaway and Pat Kelsey's teams and discuss their top takeaways from Memphis' win over Baylor on Dec. 6, including Aaron Bradshaw and Zach Davis.
