Ole Miss men's basketball coach Kermit Davis tested positive for the coronavirus, the university announced on Tuesday.
After going through the team's regular protocol on Monday, Davis got re-tested on Tuesday and those results are still pending.
"If Tuesday's tests also come back positive, Coach Davis will remain in isolation at his home and miss the first two games of the season," the statement said.
If Davis is unable to coach to start the Rebels' season, Ronnie Hamilton will serve as the team's interim head coach during Davis' absence from the sidelines. However, Davis will still observe practices and communicate with the team virtually.
