Respect is a two-way street, especially in Memphis. You get out what you put in.

BREAKING: Alex Simmons has officially been let go and will not return as head coach of Memphis WBB.

Alex Simmons on her future at Memphis: “I haven’t talked to (Ed Scott) about anything, even with that rumor and previous to that rumor.”
