How Did We Get Here?
Effectively, Ole Miss couldn’t replace Terence Davis.
The three-year starter left Ole Miss having scored 1,512 points in his college career; he also was the only significant loss the Rebels had off their 2018-19 team, which went a surprising 20-13 and made the NCAA Tournament for just the ninth time in the program’s history. But that alone doesn’t quite explain the Rebels’ drop-off to 15-17, 6-12 in the SEC, in Kermit Davis’s second year.
The Rebels’ shooting percentages in 2019-20 declined pretty much across the board.
