Someone's excited to be in The American.

The University of Memphis is producing a "By the Numbers" web page series on its athletics programs to introduce them to the media (and general public) over the next couple of weeks. It's first link, unveiled today, is on the Memphis football program. Included in the link is the schedule by which each program will be featured over the ensuing days. The men's basketball program will be featured July 19, for those interested (I'm always up for some good Keith Lee nostalgia. He was my favorite player back in the day).

And, of course, the Tigers' rifle program will be featured July 16, so mark your calendars.

In all seriousness, it's a nice, proactive thing Memphis is doing. Memphis does seem to be excited to be a part of this new conference, so that's kind of refreshing to see.
