Saturday was a controversial day in Oxford because of protest. Ole Miss basketball faced Georgia and picked up their 19th win of the 2018-2019 college basketball season. Ole Miss basketball was expected to finish at the bottom of the SEC and to be sitting with 19 wins with 4 regular season game remaining is impressive.
However, the national focus placed on the Ole Miss hoops program wasn’t for the amazing record under first year head coach Kermit Davis. Instead it was because of the Rebels who knelt during the National Anthem prior to the tipoff against Georgia.
