In Episode 115 of GoTigers247's Tigers in 20, founder of GoTigers247, Brooks Hansen, and lead digital content creator, Kenny Stubblefield, discuss the Tiger's football team and basketball team.

In the first segment, Brooks and Kenny discuss the football team's successful offseason with the hiring of offensive coordinator, Tim Cramsey, and defensive coordinator, Matt Barnes. Brooks breaks down the Tigers' most successful recruiting class in the history of the program, and the culture that Ryan Silverfield is bringing to the Memphis program. Kenny and Brooks then discuss the success the Tigers have experienced with the transfer portal, both with players coming into the program and a minimal amount of impact the Tigers have experienced with productive players leaving. They end the segment talking about the Tigers heading into spring practice and some of the big questions that have to be answered during that time that will give Tiger fans insight into how successful the 2022 season will be.

In the second segment, Brooks and Kenny highlight the positive development for the Tiger basketball program with the return of five players from injury. Brooks takes a hopeful stance in what this will mean for the Tigers for the last eight games of the year, and how the Tigers' potential success in those games will prove Coach Penny Hardaway's assessment of the Tigers' struggles this year. Brooks dives into Tiger history to explain why he believes the Houston games are the most important remaining matchups for the Tigers. To end the episode, Brooks and Kenny give their opinion on three Tiger players that have pleasantly surprised them this year, and how their continued success will be pivotal to the Tigers winning those games.

The Draft Network's Ryan Fowler sat down with lead digital content creator, Kenny Stubblefield, to discuss the draft prospects for Calvin Austin III and Dylan Parham.

In the first segment, Fowler was in Mobile for the Senior Bowl in early February and quickly fell in love with the Tiger players. He breaks down Calvin Austin's scouting report, impressions from his four year career at Memphis and why he thinks Calvin's skillset can make up for any physical disadvantages. Fowler shares his thoughts on where he believes Calvin will go in the draft, and what offensive scheme would best fit his skillset.

In the second segment, Fowler then talks about the journey Dylan Parham took during his time at Memphis moving from the tight end position to ultimately becoming a stalwart offensive lineman. Fowler breaks down what part of Dylan's body will help him succeed in the NFL. He describes how his elite athleticism will help him in techniques that a lot of lineman struggle with. Fowler's biggest concern for Parham is his weight and shares that this is the only thing that will limit his productiveness on the field.
