I won’t deny the issues we have in Memphis, it’s been really rough lately. I was born in the city limits, raised in the city limits, and live in the city limits. I LOVE MY HOME! FIGHT FOR YOUR CITY DAMN IT!
Congrats to
@RSilverfield
@MemphisFB

WOW, from ESPN:
Season-High Social Chatter: Last week, College GameDay experienced 122,000 social mentions (Sunday through Saturday), making it the most-social week of College GameDay this season. This measures mentions across all social platforms through social listening.
Reminder,
@MemphisFB
had FOUR weeks of practice before last night.
No spring practice
No organized summer strength/conditioning
No camp at Lambuth
Just a month since the Cotton Bowl to prepare.
Great job by
@RSilverfield
and staff of preparation!
The last time you’ll see a game in the current configuration of Simmons Bank-Liberty Stadium.
It’s been a great run for the Old Gray Lady, but looking forward to the renovations!
I’m a 47 year old Memphian and Alum. I’ve seen more than some, not as much as others. Never thought as a child of the 80’s I’d ever see us reach these heights.
@CollegeGameDay
and ABC in the same weekend.
You can be in one of two different crowds tomorrow, one will be a lot more fun and make a bigger difference to our community!
Go to

Dr. Rudd if Memphis doesn't play: We started doing worst-case studies five months ago. We will absorb it (losses). We have positioned ourselves to manage this and come out stronger on the other side. Not every school is in position to survive it.
The
@uofmemphis
, the
@TigersAthletics
, the
@MemphisFB
program has done its part.
We are on the biggest stage of College Football Saturday in the ABC prime time at 6:30.
Citizens of Memphis........DO YOUR PART AND BE THERE!
Ump calls a Pitch-clock violation on the very first pitch?
@MattRiser17
isn’t going to play around with this mess. He’s gonna be great for
@MemphisBaseball
I was with
@CoachRock43
his whole time at Memphis. Thank you for the lives impacted, program improvements, and how you treated people. Thanks Coach for always being the same person, win or lose. You’ve made Tiger Baseball a better place.
So glad I found this going over some of my old files!
Legendary Bat Boy Stan Bronson Jr wanted an interview, so I gave him one!
Definitely one of the highlights of my 21 years calling
@MemphisBaseball
"First and foremost, let me give our thoughts and prayers to the city of Memphis, it's been a hard week. Hopefully we can be a little bit of a shining light during [this] hard week that we've gone through."

On the way home.
Very thankful for the career I have, broadcasting for my Alma Mater!
Last two weeks, I’ve been fortunate to call both NCAA Tournament Soccer games and the three basketball games in Bahamas.

Sixth win last night for
@MemphisFB
!
Never take getting eligible for a bowl for granted.
At my age, I've lived through over a dozen seasons of 3 or less wins.
So, the last seven seasons have been a blast and we're in great hands with
@RSilverfield
My fellow Memphians
@uofmemphis
@TigersAthletics
@MemphisFB
has given you a winning program, national ranking, competitive league, and the biggest national stage Saturday at 6:30 in The Liberty Bowl!
Now my fellow Memphians, what will YOU do for YOUR University?
BE THERE!
Thanks Memphis! You were there early Saturday morning and packed Beale Street, you filled the Liberty Bowl with a record crowd for kick-off, and you stayed till the end. Remember it forever! Good night and Go Tigers!
It's a miracle. Made it to 48, both my father and grandfather died at 47. Thankfully found
@CrossFit
at age 40.
Eternally grateful for the two affiliates I've been part of, CrossFit Chickasaw (
@Michelle_Kinney
) and CrossFit Hit and Run.

Thanks to the students that came out to “Riser’s Riser” in leftfield!
Just spent over an hour meeting with new

Coach
@MattRiser17

I am 100% totally convinced he is the right person at the right time for this program in every single aspect!
Need all the

WR for
@MemphisFB
(and
@HardingLions
Alum)
@CalvinAustinIII
is becoming a mentor to the younger players, he looks back on his journey and his feeling of responsibility to give back.
(The State of MEMPHIS!)
I’d go to games if...
“We won” ✔️
“Had some good players”✔️
“Had a coach”✔️
“Were in a good league” ✔️
“Could be ranked” ✔️
“Competed for Championships”✔️
“Had a nice tailgate area”✔️
“The weather was good”✔️
Get to the Liberty Bowl Saturday, there are no longer any excuses!
Not only did Coach Hankins do a great job in the Bowl Game, he brings experience as a defensive coordinator at Martin where they were ranked nationally in multiple categories.
Great guy as well, has put in his time, glad he's getting this opportunity!
Only 6 games on the September 5th College Football schedule. Let's get
@MemphisFB
vs
@AStateFB
that primetime slot and whatever kind of
@CollegeGameDay
they have.
Great run for Memphis as they made history this year, looking forward to the 2024 season!
