Kermit Davis follows new path for return to the Big Dance

Kermit Davis and the Ole Miss Rebels are back in the tournament and looking to cause some chaos.

It’s well-documented that Kermit Davis and his staff have been the driving force behind the resurgent Rebel hoops squad that went 10-8 in the league, giving teams like Tennessee and Kentucky fits, just a year after finishing at the bottom of the conference standings. Davis has the SEC Coach of the Year award and a fresh contract extension to back that up.

Davis’s stellar coaching job has guided Ole Miss to its ninth appearance in the NCAA Tournament and first at-large bid since 2002.
