For the first time in more than 20 years, Memphis basketball will host the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Sure, it's an exhibition game (part of the second annual Hoops For St. Jude Tip Off Classic). It won't count toward either program's record. It won't help either team in the standings. It won't do anything for their March Madness outlook.
But John Calipari returning to face the Tigers (the team he coached for nine seasons in the early aughts) has been almost 16 years in the making. Adding to the allure, dozens of former Memphis Tigers who played for Calipari are also returning to be recognized.
Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan dive into all of it (including the actual game, which will be the first look at the all-new Tigers for many) on this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast.
