Because of his bulk Magic could guard the opposing center better than most 1 or 2 Guards. That and staying injury free separated him from the rest. Hoping Coach gets a ring this year. Guy has the most impressive body of work of any Tiger to date including Coach Finch (Peace Be With Him). Tigers haven't been this feared since D. Rose 1 & done. We Ready!!!
Him and shaq would have started a dynasty with the right pieces around them, if it were not for the injuries. He's another great player tragedy story like Derrick Rose.
Well, technically Oscar Robertson was born in Tennessee, so even though he left for Indianapolis when just 18 months old, if you included Oscar, then Penny would be Number 2. But, that's really not fair to include a guy who left before he was 2 years old and didn't grow up playing in the state. Penny is the best of the guys who grew up in the state. But, just so you know who the greatest basketball BORN in Tennessee is and I'm sure Penny would agree if that's the criteria. :)
Memphis is going to be a really tough out in the tourney. If they get Purdue in the second round, Purdue could be in trouble. They haven’t seen that kinda speed and athleticism all year. Not even close.
I think with 7’4 Edey it clogs up the lane making Memphis offense rethink their approach as I just watched they are a dangerous driving team. Purdue will definitely have to play faster than usual on the defensive side but I think they can control their offense in normal slow playing style.
We played them without KD KENDRICK DAVIS on the road and had a chance to win the game. We still beat the #1 team in the country. We lost to them by a buzzer beater as well with them fully healthy. What is your point? A win is a win. A Loss is a loss.
As a memphis fan nothing but respect to Houston. You always had to go thru Houston to win the conference. Now that they are leaving for big 12 we can own the conference until we go to Big12.
Memphis will be dangerous in the tournament. We have to get through Purdue to really get to making noise to win the whole thing. I'm thinking BIG. GTG!!!
Came here to see the potential Memphis team that matches up with Purdue and my take away is Edey can clog up the lane which stops the dangerous driving I just watched from Memphis forcing them to a much slower paced shooting game on their end. Meanwhile Memphis plays fast on defense too which will make Purdue work for their entry feeds to Edey.
@@johnnybell6295 170th ranked in 3 percentage by NCAA isn’t something to worry about. Purdue has shut down PSU & MSU in 3’s in the BIG10 all season while those teams rank top 10 in percentage.
Emoni is very talented just doesn't understand how to play team basketball like cut and going back door and moving without the ball. He only understands iso ball.
Continue the standard Memphis can never be in the wrong side of the referee when playing the Houston cougars, and combine that with Marcus Sasser not giving any production, is anyone surprised Memphis was able to have their way with this game? This is one of those championships to not be taken seriously. Memphis is not of the same level of play as Houston and it is quite evident that every narrative for the event had to go Memphis' way for them to accomplish the victory. This is not a rivalry so much as Memphis just wanting to think they belong in the same class.
@@slappy1234567 I slept through the whole game. Memphis is on the tier below Houston. Let's be honest Houston is not good for the NCAA so they will pull any stops to try to keep Houston out of winning. I don't particularly care for Houston's program but my goodness it couldn't be more obvious.
Y'all got y'all azz whopped simple as that what u thought ur team was invincible the refs gave y'all favor last game and y'all didn't deserve #1 with that weak azz schedule.
@@zopound8970 the only fault Houston has had is not winning a championship outright. Go back and find a better performer in the NCAA tournament in the last 7 years. It will refute every objection you have. Go on and look. It's not easy to recognize greatness.

Thank for the highlights, Getting old, Tiger fan since 61, Memphis go deep and win this thing!
Penny first AAC championship! Congrats 👏 👏
Love this dude. Congratulations Coach Hardaway sky's the limit now.
😢 Orange Mound major homesick adios Austin
About time
He was a good player. Now he's a good coach. Congrats Hardaway.

He's not done yet
Penny showing he can be a coach and making adjustments!!! Yes sir!!!
Outstanding! Go Tigers! My Alma mater!

I AGREE! Not seen this defense also!

@Hunter he slow
final 4 bound! Memphis defense is top 5 at least. And got players that can ball! I'm going to take Memphis into the final 4.
Me too
Love revisiting this, Penny PLEASE bring us another this year 🙏 #GODGOTUS
Great highlights. I wish you had included the deep 3 by KD, the steal, and another deep 3 by KD. Still, though, GO TIGERS GO!
Left out so many great plays but great video overall!
Yes I turn my head for a second and missed the Steel

Kinda expected this after Sassers injury. Did not expect them to get roasted and toasted tho! Rooting for the Cougs, but both teams are to be feared.

Sasser wasn't factor when he played to be honest

WHOOP that trick
Notice how Davis was crying and celebrating by himself
Passionate for the game
He wasn’t by himself
penny yeahhhh
Now we need a grizzlies championship 🏆 yes sir let's go tigers 🐯
Go Tigers
Despite losing to Memphis in the AAC Championship my Houston Cougars are still the best team in the AAC in my opinion.
LMBAO 😅
Maybe but Houston left and they probably won’t play the 🐯 much anymore.
Not today
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣that's so funny
Way to go Memphis

What's your point genius 🙄
