Five years later: Memphis still gets credit for Runner Up finish
During Reece Davis' interview with Gonzaga's Coach Mark Few tonight on Bracketology show about being the only non-Power Six team to get a#1 seed, Reece never made any mention of our being forced to vacate our 38 (edit) wins that year.

I take some comfort in knowing that most of the basketball world seems to have forgotten/forgiven Memphis or even dismissed the NCAA ruling given the shaky evidence from which they drew their conclusions.

It still happened. Even if not in the NCAA's ledger.

Translation: No one cares that it got vacated, except the NCAA.

Sorry I had to spell it out for you.
