Memphis basketball − devoid of "chaos," as DeAndre Williams put it − calmly dismantled Vanderbilt Monday, kicking off the 2022-23 season with a 76-67 win.
It was the exclamation point on a three-day stretch of success for Penny Hardaway on and off the court. On Saturday, he landed 5-star guard Mikey Williams and 4-star wing JJ Taylor. On Sunday, Hardaway earned a pledge from 3-star wing David Tubek.
On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, beat writer Jason Munz and columnist Mark Giannotto analyze Memphis' recruiting wins and discuss their potential implications (Bronny James?). Also, Munz and Giannotto try to single out the most impressive aspect of the Tigers' win at Vandy, then give an early scouting report on Saint Louis, the team's next opponent.
