NEWS: The expectation is that Memphis HC Penny Hardaway returns for his ninth season as head coach, per source. Additionally, Hardaway is expected to clean slate with his assistant staff before the start of portal season, source adds. Several candidates have already been contacted. In regards to Penny’s future, source cites that the administration were concerned about the “politics” and “financials” of firing Penny. For context, Memphis would have to pay a $6 million buyout + potential buyout for new coach + increase financial commitment to program.



A year after finishing 29-6 and winning the AAC title, Memphis finishes 13-19 — its worst season in over 50+ years. A disaster of a season is finally over. A lot of decisions will shake out over the next 24 hours or so — most importantly, Penny Hardaway’s future as head coach + assistant staff outlook.




Final from Birmingham: Tulane 81, Memphis 69
