The Tigers have had a number of successful seasons on the court — two of which came in 1973 and 2008 when the team finished runner-up in the NCAA Championship. Memphis set a new NCAA record in 2008 with its 38 season wins under head coach John Calipari. Unfortunately, the team was forced to vacate this record and serve probation for three years after NCAA investigations revealed a handful of major infractions including the ineligibility of star player Derrick Rose.
