Tiger Basketball, Little Feat At MIF

The NCAA denied the University of Memphis appeal to reverse penalties stemming from violations that occurred during the 2007-8 basketball season. Now the Tigers must vacate all 38 wins from that season, return NCAA tournament revenues, return its Final Four trophy and take down the banners from that season. Now that this process is over, how much longer will R.C. Johnson be in the athletic department?

There is some good Tigers basketball news. The women's basketball team has made it to the semi-finals of the Women's Basketball Invitational. Memphis will host Texas A&M-Corpus Christi at the Roane Fieldhouse on Thursday night.

The Memphis Italian Fest has confirmed that Little Feat will headline the East Memphis festival in early June. Little Feat may have a new lead singer, but the music still sounds great.
