I wholeheartedly agree. Been saying it for years that we should play them in NOTHING and I'm very happy it is finally coming to pass. Now I can totally ignore them. Playing them does zip for our bottom line. And that "recruiting Memphis" nonsense is a joke for one game every two years. If UT wants a basketball presense in the area, schedule a non-conference game every year at the Desoto Civic Center in Southaven. It seats 9000 for basketball and is only about 5 miles south of the city limit. Oh and one note for Josh: You get to be classified as a "national program" when you win a couple of national titles. You might want to consider beating a Top 25 team first. Haven't done that in your head coaching career.
