Two months after first-year Ole Miss head coach Kermit Davis took over in Oxford, he received an unexpected gift: the most talented player on the roster had removed his name from the NBA Draft and was returning for his senior season.
Guard Terence Davis worked out for the Atlanta Hawks and Memphis Grizzlies but never hired an agent, enabling him to remain eligible for college ball. T.D. ultimately decided he needed another year in Oxford to make his name known in more front offices. This season will be TD’s roll of the dice for an NBA career, and Ole Miss’ success will undoubtedly be linked to his ability to lead this team.
