John Calipari goes to bat for Kermit Davis amid Ole Miss' struggles

Kentucky’s 75-66 win over Ole Miss last night dropped the Rebels to 9-13 on the season and 1-8 in SEC play. It was Ole Miss’ tenth loss in the last eleven games, and even though the Rebels were tied with the Cats at halftime despite being without their two leading scorers, it kind of feels like the writing is on the wall for Kermit Davis in his fifth season in Oxford.

After the game, John Calipari made it a point to praise Davis, who is now 73-74 at Ole Miss and 542-337 in his 28-year career.
