Coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin has made her mark on women’s basketball and Oxford, Mississippi

After going 0–16 in SEC play during the 2019–2020 season, the only way was up for the Ole Miss Women’s basketball team and head coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin.

Coach Yo — as she’s more commonly known by her friends and supporters — took Oxford, Mississippi, and the Southeastern Conference (SEC) by storm in 2018. Coach Yo became the Rebel’s ninth head coach in April of 2018 following a rough season for the Rebels — who went 1–15 in SEC play.
