I turned the basketball game in Knoxville off down by 22 points. We many have a miracle comeback, but watching this discombobulated team self destruct was very exhausting and deflating.

I simply don't follow Ole Miss Basketball. I just can't get into the sport. It has saved me from a lot of heartache from losing. Lol!

I'll watch some games, but this team is just plain bad. I don't remember AK ever having a team that was this bad.

Ole Miss looks a lot like the team I played for my first year in college. I've probably told this story before, but our brilliant assed coach came up with the idea of using an offense patterned after Cincinnati when Oscar Robertson was there. It was a complex offense that demanded precision passing, exceptional athleticism, and the ability for a player to play multiple positions - of which we generally met none of that. I think we started out like 2-6 and he finally ditched that offense in favor of some simple stuff ... and only lost two or three games the rest of the season. Ole Miss is running Davis' offense but they are so consumed with running his offense that they miss the simple stuff, like making shots. Hell they can't even make one from the FT line. Davis (and I) have been too busy reading the headlines from last year that he and his players thought this shit going to be easy. It's terrible because Davis has had all season to get the offense in rhythm and has failed. In fact, it's getting worse by the game. My opinion of Davis has gone from pretty high to pegging on empty because he can't figure out the problem. Just let them play street ball --

AK had better teams than we are seeing now and maybe the push to get rid of AK was not a good decision. Some ex-basketball player came up with some statistics and a power point to help start the idea of getting rid of AK. If Kermit does not improve in two seasons, then it is time to move on to the next coach.

It's just basketball. Let his contract expire.
Seriously, I saw issues last year when we would lose huge leads to then lose the game. He was a flash in the pan. But again, it's basketball.
