Vanderbilt Commodores head coach Mark Byington and Memphis Tigers head coach Penny Hardaway have expressed their desire to continue the basketball series between the two programs. The rivalry, which has produced competitive matchups in recent years, is valued by both coaches for its regional significance and scheduling benefits. Byington, in his first season at Vanderbilt, and Hardaway, a former NBA star leading Memphis, believe the series enhances exposure for both schools and provides quality non-conference competition.
