    It appears Kermit can hold the Rebel fan hostage through the 2024-2025 season.  Hopefully, he will be gone at the end of this season, 2022-2023.

    Rock, give us the scoop on Kermit's time at TAMU and his impeccable 8-21 record.

    I think Keith has no choice but to fire him at the end of the season. Attendance has been horrible and it's costing the University too much to continue down this path.

    Re: How much longer does Davis

    Ole Miss is paying Kermit $3,150,000 per year for his horrible results.  Attendance is at 61% occupancy and there is no positive outlook for the future, except to fire Kermit and replace him with a better coach.  Here are the attendance numbers for 2022-2023 basketball:

    OPP                ATT
    Alcorn             5,990 
    FL Atlantic       5,974 
    Chattanooga   5,479 
    UT - Martin      5,024 
    Valpraiso         5,517 
    UCF                5,215 
    Temple            6,154 
    North AL          5,477 
    Tennessee       7,013 
    Auburn             5,973 
    Geogia             6,117 
    TOTAL            63,933 
    AVG                 5,812 
    CAPACITY       9,500 
    OCC %                61%

    Re: How much longer does Davis

    If Kermit's contract goes through the 2024-2025 season, then Ole Miss will probably owe him another $3.5M. 

    The WAOM way would be to give him his last year and the chance to turn things around.  He will get a new contract or another year if he has a decent season.

    If Ole Miss wants a better basketball program, then they would fire Kermit at the end of the season and take a chance on another coach.  Ole Miss is paying top dollar to Kermit, one of the top-paid coaches in NCAA basketball.  If Ole Miss can pay Kermit top dollar, they can do the same with someone else or go less and take a chance on an up-and-coming coach.

    Kermit almost got A&M the death penalty. He cheated out in the open. He was forced to resign asap. Got A&M on 2 years probation and got him a 2 year show cause penalty. I mean a true knuckle head. 

    This was in 1990-91 and A&M was just getting  over the mess Jackie Sherrill left when he was forced to resign in 1988-89. The NCAA didn’t punish Sherrill, but gave A&M a 1 year bowl ban.

    I always said Jackie knew/knows where the bodies are burried at the NCAA headquarters because everything he did at Pitt and then at A&M and Miss St. , all schools were hit with probation because of him, but he was not sanctioned at any school.  Then he had the audacity to sue the NCAA the year after he resigned at Miss St (2004) and they finally settled with him in 2019.  Just crazy.


    Anyway, sorry for the rant on Jackie.  But after his crap at A&M, the powers that be at A&M didn’t hesitate to get rid of Kermit when the violations started being reported after he was only on campus 3-4 months.


    I am still shocked that OM hired him. He was at a place and level and inconspicuous where he could do all his dirty stuff and stay under the radar.   I can’t believe OM did any background check on him and his time at Middle Tenn, if they would have, they would have found the dirt.  They either didn’t and ignored it, or had their minds made up and set on him and they didn’t do any real digging.

    For Kermit to cheat, he sure does not seem to get results at TAMU or OM.  As for Jokie, he must know something because he has on a Teflon suit when it comes to NCAA matters.

    He didn’t have time to get results at A&M.  Hebwas exposed and fired.

    At OM, doesn’t look like he has done much cheating. He knows that would have voided his contract and his big payday for his retirement would have gone up in smoke. And when they gave him a extension, he just put another log on the fire. lol
