Penny Hardaway Overhauls Memphis Basketball Coaching Staff
Four coaches dismissed as Hardaway aims to revitalize program ahead of new season.
- Assistant coaches Rick Stansbury, Faragi Phillips, and Jamie Rosser, along with advisor Demetrius Dyson, were fired.
- The decision comes just two months before the season opener against Missouri.
- This marks a significant shake-up in a busy offseason, with Memphis bringing in eight new Division-I transfers.
- New athletic director Ed Scott and senior deputy AD Tim Duncan recently took office, potentially influencing these changes.
- Hardaway faces increased pressure after a disappointing end to last season and previous off-court issues.
