Tigers in 20: A Memphis Tigers Athletics podcast

In episode 96 of GT247's Tigers in 20, host and lead writer Christian Fowler, GT247 digital content producer Kenny Stubblefield and GT247 vet Jonah Jordan discuss the latest in Memphis football and basketball.

To begin the episode, the crew discusses the Memphis-SMU postponement, which was the Tigers' third consecutive game to be pushed back. With the game against the Mustangs off, Memphis won't play their next game until Sunday against Tulsa which is 20 days from their last game.

Fowler, Stubblefield and Jordan break down the positives and negatives of the 20-day layoff, and they also explain how difficult this will make the rest of the season. The UCF game was rescheduled, but now Memphis, SMU, Temple and the AAC have to figure out how/when to reschedule the games.

Memphis' last scheduled game against Houston is in March, so they will have a month and a half to play the remaining 17 games on schedule. The trio breaks down how and why this can be problematic moving forward.

Next, Fowler and Stubblefield talk about former Tigers James Wiseman and Precious Achiuwa. Wiseman has been a standout for the Golden State Warriors this season, and Achiuwa made his first start with the Miami Heat on Tuesday night.

Achiuwa finished his first career start with a career high in minutes (36), points (17) and rebounds (13), and he showed that he can be a viable weapon for the defending Eastern Conference Champions moving forward.

Finally, Fowler and Jordan move on to Memphis football and discuss the transfers of Obinna Eze and T.J. Carter. They give their opinions on what the transfers mean, and they also explain who they believe could step up to fill their respective roles next season.

Before the episode wraps, Fowler and Jordan give the latest on Memphis wide receiver Calvin Austin.

In episode 94 of GT247's Tigers in 20, host and lead writer Christian Fowler, GT247 founder Brooks Hansen, GT247 digital content producer Kenny Stubblefield and GT247 vet Jonah Jordan discuss the latest in Memphis football and basketball.

To begin the episode, Fowler and Jordan discuss the recent additions of Michigan State transfers Devontae Dobbs and Julian Barnett. Dobbs and Barnett are the two highest-ranked player to ever commit and sign with Memphis, and coach Ryan Silverfield was able to do that in a matter of hours.

Dobbs is a 6-foot-4, 304-pound offensive lineman and Barnett is a 6-foot-2 cornerback/wide receiver, and both players have the potential to make an immediate impact for the Tigers. Fowler and Jordan also go into detail about how much better Memphis has gotten thus far with the 2021 class and the two big time transfers.

Next, the GT247 crew previews the Montgomery Bowl between Memphis and Florida Atlantic. The Tigers and the Owls will play on December 23 at 6:00 p.m. CST, and Memphis will be looking for their first bowl win since the 2014 Miami Beach Bowl.

Throughout the preview of the game, Fowler, Jordan and Hansen break down why Memphis should win this game and what they need to do to ensure that they come back to Memphis victorious. This will be Brady White's last game in a Memphis uniform, so the players will likely give their all for him.

After all the positivity in the football discussion, the mood and tone of the podcast shifts very quickly when the subject moves to basketball. Penny Hardaway and the Tigers lost a game that they definitely should've won against Tulsa, and the loss was a microcosim of the season up to this point.

Memphis looked terrible offensively, and they made too many mistakes at the end of the game. The crew gives their thoughts on the loss, and they explain why they believe the Tigers are struggling so badly this year.

From the coaching to the players and every aspect in between, the GT247 crew gives their brutally honest opinions.

In January, 2022, Cam entered the transfer portal for a short time, and he explained what went into that decision and also shared why he ultimately decided that Memphis was the place for him. He went into great detail on how Coach Pope, his mom and even senior DB Quindell Johnson played a role in changing his mind.

In the second segment, Cam discusses how the defensive line has been unleashed with Matt Barnes as the new defensive coordinator. He walks us through what Tiger fans can expect from the Tigers' defensive line this year, and how excited he is about the depth the Tigers have at that position.

They discussed the addition of the two new coordinators and their impact on the way the offense and defensive schemes looked. Trey and TJ spent a few minutes breaking down the quarterback competition. Trey was incredibly impressed with Tevin Carter and his arm strength, but they broke down who they believe is going to come out on top in the quarterback competition: Seth Henigan or Grant Gunnell.

They transition to talking about the running backs and how they believe the running back role will be a filled by committee this year.

TJ mentioned the wide receiver corp and how disappointed he was with the consistency during the game.

In the second segment, TJ and Trey highlighted the fact that the Tiger defense has switched back to a 4-man front and how Tiger fans will be excited to see the pressure the defense will bring to opponents this year. Trey shares how excited he is by the linebacker group this year, and how he believes they will be one of the more effective parts of the defensive this year. Trey mentions that he believes Greg Rubin is going to take a big leap from an already successful freshman campaign.

Trey and TJ end the football portion of this podcast talking about what they were the most pleasantly surprised by and they both were in agreement that the special teams was the most disappointing part of the spring game and how scared they are that the special teams could lose games for the Tigers this year.
