Memphis Tigers
Last season, Memphis had a solid year as they finished 22-11 and 13-5 in AAC play. The Tigers lost in the AAC Championship game, to Houston, but were upset in the first round by the Boise State Broncos.
Most of the talent left during the offseason with three players declaring for the NBA draft and five players, including Emoni Bates, transferring away. It will be tough to replace all the lost talent in 2022-2023.
In the preseason poll, Memphis was picked second in the AAC, behind Houston, and had Kendric David and DeAndrew Williams selected to the preseason all-conference first team.
Vanderbilt Commodores
Vanderbilt had a successful 2021-2022 season that saw them finish the regular season 18-16 overall and 7-11 in SEC play. The Commodores advanced to the quarterfinals of the SEC Tournament and received an at-large bid to the NIT. Vandy beat Belmont and Dayton before losing to Xavier in the quarters.
The Commodores lost plenty of talent this offseason, but none more important than Scotty Pippen Jr. Eight other players from last seasons team either graduated or transferred.
In the preseason polls, Vandy was picked to finish 12th out of 14 in the SEC and the ‘Dores did not have any player make a preseason all-conference team.
