Is it time for Memphis to reconsider its romance with Penny Hardaway?
A hometown guy, Hardaway was a superb talent at Memphis and in the NBA until injuries caught up to him.
A few years ago, when Tubby Smith proved to be a terrible fit with the Tigers, a sentiment arose to bring Hardaway back as the head coach.
No one really talked about his lack of head coaching experience, at least in college. He did have some in middle school and high school.
As things have turned out though, Hardaway hasn’t been the home run a lot of people expected.
