| On January 14, 1995, the University of Memphis recognized former Tiger great Forest Arnold by retiring his jersey No. 13 in pregame ceremonies. |
| Arnold, who played for the Tigers from 1952-1956, was the first-ever All-American in school history. During his career, Arnold helped lead the Tigers to 62 wins, including the school’s first-ever NCAA appearance in 1955 against Penn State. |
| Arnold is the school’s fourth all-time leading scorer with 1,854 career points and ranks as Memphis’s second career rebounding leader with 1,109. Arnold is one of just four players in Memphis basketball history to score more than 1,000 points and grab more than 1,000 rebounds. |
| One of many highlights during his sterling career, was a school record (at the time) 46-point game against Hardin-Simmons in the old Field House. |
