Tigers use COVID-19 break to hone offense (Source: WMC Action News 5) By Jarvis Greer | January 14, 2021 at 6:39 AM CST - Updated January 14 at 6:39 AM MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - In college hoops, the Memphis Tigers will now go 20 days without playing a single game. Tomorrowâs nightâs game against SMU is postponed due to COVID-19 cases within the Mustangs program. Itâs now the third straight postponement for the Tigers. U of M head coach Penny Hardaway calls this one disappointing, but heâs understanding and glad theyâre finding a way to play games, instead of shutting down the season like last year.
