WATCH: Rick Barnes, Penny Hardaway have incredibly icy handshake after Vols beat Memphis
When Penny Hardaway took over as Memphis’s head coach this offseason, it ruffled some feathers around college basketball.
You can be sure Tennessee coach Rick Barnes isn’t a big fan of what Hardaway is doing, and the Volunteers clearly took pleasure in handing the Tigers a 102-92 loss on Saturday afternoon.
As you can see below, there was no love lost between the two coaches in the postgame handshake line, as it was one of the iciest you’ll see in college basketball:

The Vols improved to 8-1 with the win and now have a big-time road victory to add to their neutral-site win over No. 1 Gonzaga last weekend.
The Vols and Tigers will play each of the next two seasons, as well, and we hope the series is extended indefinitely, as Saturday’s game was a lot of fun.
