I guess we do need a team from western Tennessee
A lot of outsiders may not realize it but we're called the three states of Tennessee for a reason. Not only are there geographical and cultural differences, they've been pronounced from the beginning. We're the only state where East, Middle, and West are written into our state constitution as Grand Divisions and legally mean something. Our signs used to say "Welcome to the Three States of Tennessee" until a governor decided that needed to change sometime in 70s or 80s (I think).
Adding Memphis would hurt the Mississippi schools and Arkansas in terms of football. But honestly, other than basketball (which has been going downhill), they ain't ready.

Why we still play Tiger High is beyond me. We got nothing out of it, and it's their Super Bowl.
