Memphis is probably the next school moving up to the P5. They have the history in hoops; they have the facilities; they just made R1 at the same time we did; they are a big school in a major demographic; and they are even in the process of adding an engineering school.Quote:

Memphis has been the largest metro in Tenn even though Nashville is coming on strong. We'll see if B12 wants them should the Pac12 choose to hang together.
