When my Bearcats aren't involved, I'll root for whoever needs the win more. I can't believe I'm saying this, but TULANE has better metrics now and needs the win more than Memphis in order to make the tournament.

The game today is important for Memphis. The Tigers must prevail in most “winnable” games to avoid the first losing season since the freshman were in diapers.

I hear ya, but it seems clear that the league is dividing itself into a top half and bottom half:
Middle: Tulsa, Tulane, Memphis (very very slight tourney hopes)
Bottom: ECU, USF, Temple, Uconn (no shot at an at-large)
Loser of this game goes to the bottom in my opinion. I think Tulane's chances at an at-large are better than Memphis' at the moment, so I'll pull for them.

Unfortunately, your post accurately represents the sad state of the Tiger program under Tubby. His future fate mainly lies with obtaining high quality recruits - specially Tyler Harris.

Don't you guys have the No. 1 class in the league in 2017?

You guys got kicked by the same mule UC did....never hire a an older guy known as Tubby from Texas Tech.
There is no wisdom in the second kick of the mule.

You don't want any part of this argument. Honestly. I would avoid threads involving Memphis Basketball right now.

It be more effective with more experience surrounding them. Way behind because guys are understanding their roles and they don’t have talent of Kentucky or Duke players to do that while they find those roles

Tulane will be 2-2 if they lose, not sure we will go to the bottom group. We aren’t going to make the tournament either. We are realistically shooting for an nit bid.

Yes, which honestly should be of concern to the rest of the league.
