The Nike Zoom Rookie is reportedly headed back to retailers next weekend in a special edition "Memphis Tigers" colorway as a nod to Penny Hardaway's alma mater and the University where he now coaches the men's basketball team. The release comes on the heels of the similarly styled "Memphis Tigers" Nike Air Foamposite One that launched in limited quantities back in March.
