First things first. College Gameday is officially coming to Memphis to host their first ever College Gameday for the University of Memphis Football team. The Tigers will take on Southern Methodist University on ABC at 6:30 p.m. Yes, that’s primetime on ABC.
But that’s not it. The Memphis Tigers Basketball team is hotter than ever. They are ranked at #14 in the preseason polls, have the #1 recruiting class in the nation. They officially want all the smoke.
Last but not least, the Memphis Grizzlies future is looking brighter than ever. Ja Morant has arrived in Memphis, and he’s not looking back.
