The University of Memphis men's and women's basketball teams will have a fan appreciation day event on Oct. 24, deputy athletic director Mark Alnutt said.
Details on the event, which is expected to be held at FedExForum, are expected to be released later today.
The fan appreciation day is replacing Memphis Madness, which no longer marked the official start of practice for the upcoming season and had essentially become a rap concert intended to impress Tigers recruits.
