Hear Us Roar!

Let me be the first to welcome you to Tiger Blue, our new blog devoted to University of Memphis sports. Having just celebrated the Flyer’s 20th anniversary — and with the spirit of former editor and sportswriter supreme Dennis Freeland alive and well — the time seems perfect for us to launch an interactive resource for Tiger Nation. The views, opinions, thoughts, and ramblings you find here should contribute to what remains this community’s most unifying chatter. Did you see the Tigers last night? How about that new signing! Can you believe they call that a passing game? Don’t you miss John Calipari? (Kidding on that last one. I think.)

With the dawn of the Josh Pastner Era upon us, and what we’d like to call the dawn of something — anything — in the U of M football program, Tiger Blue’s entry into the conversation seems appropriate. Be sure and let us know your own views, opinions, and thoughts as the seasons play on. (You can leave the rambling to us.)

And thanks for reading.
