It’s here. It’s happening. FINALLY, Kermit has come back... to the Pavilion for some Ole Miss basketball. Yes, head coach Kermit Davis and Rebel men’s basketball team will start its season against Jackson State at 7 p.m. in Oxford.
Ole Miss will be the last of all Power 5 conference schools to start its season after COVID positive tests and contact tracing pushed back the start of the season from Nov. 25. The Rebels will be looking to rebound from a disappointing sub .500 record last season, which ended with an Southeastern Conference tournament loss to Georgia prior to the ultimate cancellation of March Madness.
