The Memphis Tigers packed a lot to like into one basketball game against UAB last week. 

But what was the most eye-popping part of Penny Hardaway's team's 100-77 win at FedExForum? 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan relive the highlights of Memphis' performance against the Blazers, which include Dain Dainja's monster game. Speaking of Dainja, Munz and Dylan look back on his run-in with UAB star Yaxel Lendeborg and the ensuing off-court exchange the big men had on social media after the game, and contend that those sort of things are vital parts of a healthy rivalry. 

In addition, with the Tigers' upcoming game at Tulane looming, Munz caught up with Green Wave coach Ron Hunter and asked him how his team has had so much success versus Memphis in New Orleans in recent years. 

The Memphis basketball team has positioned itself well within the March Madness bracketology landscape. 

The Tigers are 14-4 and tied for first place in the AAC at 4-1. The Tigers have five Quad 1 wins. The Tigers are currently projected by some as a No. 4 seed in the NCAA Tournament. 

But wins and losses will only take the Tigers so far. Penny Hardaway and his team do not have the luxury of simply concerning themselves with winning to improve their seeding prospects. 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan analyze last week's action, discuss why the NET matters, take a glance at how other teams are strengthening Memphis' resume, and get into why this week's games against Wichita State and UAB are very important to Hardaway and the Tigers. 

Penny Hardaway's Memphis basketball team largely controls its own March Madness destiny.

The Tigers have, so far, put together a near-sterling NCAA Tournament resumé. But the metrics-driven NET rankings don't exactly reflect that, at present. 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan delve into why there isn't as much alignment as one might like to see on those fronts. Munz and Dylan also contextualize PJ Haggerty's performance this season and discuss the Tigers' upcoming games (at Temple and at Charlotte). 

Penny Hardaway has done it again.

The Memphis Tigers coach is developing yet another bona fide superstar, in PJ Haggerty, right before our eyes.

The Tulsa transfer has led the way for No. 20 Memphis this season, most recently lifted the team with a highlight-reel, circus, 30-foot 3-pointer to help it beat North Texas. 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan examine Haggerty's impact on the Tigers, weigh in on Hardaway's desire to cut down on his (and Tyrese Hunter's) minutes, discuss Dain Dainja's value, and look ahead to the ECU game (and the potential weather-related subplot). 

Penny Hardaway's Memphis basketball team is No. 21 in this week's Associated Press Top 25 and 25th in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll.

The Tigers are 10-3, and have more Quad 1 and Quad 2 wins (eight) than any other team in the nation. They've beaten UConn, Michigan State, Clemson, Ole Miss, Missouri, San Francisco and others. 

Does Hardaway have a gripe? 

Beat writers Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan weigh in on that on this week's Tiger Basketball Podcast. In addition, Munz and Dylan offer their takeaways from the last week, discuss the addition of Dante Harris, preview AAC play and wonder what the Tigers will have to do to keep drawing large crowds. 

Memphis basketball coach Penny Hardaway guided the Tigers to a 2-0 ACC road trip over the past week. 

Because of that, the team is occupying more space in the within the national landscape than perhaps it ever has under Hardaway. Memphis is 9-2 overall with seven of its wins qualifying as valuable Quad 1 and Quad 2 victories. 

With still more resume'-building opportunities ahead (Mississippi State and Ole Miss bookended around Christmas), all of the Tiger's big-picture goals are as much or more within reach than they were before the season began just more than six weeks ago. 

On this week's episode of the Tiger Basketball Podcast, beat writer Jason Munz and host Jonah Dylan dissect Memphis' win over Clemson and Virginia, and what the best part of the team's start is. 

Memphis basketball took a "bad loss" on Sunday, falling to Arkansas State at FedExForum. 

This is after the Tigers beat UConn, Michigan State, Missouri and San Francisco (among others). Does that mean the Tigers are "doomed" to repeat the same movie that played out last season? 

Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan answer that question, preview upcoming games against Clemson and Virginia, and discuss what Clemson coach Brad Brownell said about Saturday's game against Memphis. 

Memphis is riding high after another fast start. 

The Tigers are 6-1 and ranked No. 15 in this week's USA TODAY Coaches Poll - their only loss to No. 2 Auburn. 

Who can forget how things played out last season, when Memphis fell apart down the stretch after becoming a top-10 team in January? On this week's episode, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan explain why this season will not at all suffer the same fate as the Tigers did last season. 

Penny Hardaway and his Memphis basketball team are facing what could be the toughest four-game stretch in recent memory this week and next week.

The Tigers get San Francisco first at the Chase Center, then open the Maui Invitational versus No. 2 UConn next week. 

On this week's episode, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan discuss what would constitute a successful trip. 

The Memphis basketball team is 2-0 thanks to rallies from double-digits deficits in each game, both keyed by heavy lifting from PJ Haggerty. 

On this week's episode, Jason Munz and Jonah Dylan break down the win over UNLV and Haggerty's latest standout performance. They also analyze Penny Hardaway's plans for Dain Dainja and Moussa Cisse, before delving into the Tigers' upcoming game against Ohio University.
