Memphis Tigers Basketball Tickets

Memphis Tigers Recent Success

The Memphis Tigers men’s basketball team has been a powerhouse program since the days of Bob Vanatta in the mid 1950s. Under his tutelage, the Tigers program posted a record of 109-34, a 76.2% win ratio. Since his departure, head coaches have come and gone but the outcome is always the same: opponents on the Memphis Tigers basketball schedule simply cannot compete with the standard set by the Tigers players. Especially since the arrival of head coach John Calipari in 2000, Memphis Tigers basketball game dates have been doubly entertaining to watch. Calipari has helped lead the Tigers to an impressive stretch of 219 wins over the eight years he has assumed the reins as head coach. Last season (2007-2008), fans were particularly enthusiastic about the opportunity to pick up Memphis Tigers basketball tickets for the entire postseason when the Tigers went through the entire NCAA tournament, ultimately becoming runners-up to the Kansas Jayhawks. Both fans and players have reason to be optimistic for the new season, however. Though Derrick Rose may have left to play basketball professionally for the Chicago Bulls, the Memphis Tigers have plenty of depth at every position to return to and win the NCAA Championship. As a fan, you may want to purchase your Tigers basketball tickets now before they skyrocket.
