right way and staying to coach in the NIT. I believe the team will get behind him and go far in the tournament.
Although I don't have a dog in the fight, with the perennial treatment of non-power 5 programs, which is not likely to change, from an outsider's perspective KD made the right decision.
In addition to almost tripling his salary, KD has a tremendous opportunity in front of him once the NIT is finished. Fact - during the twelve years of Andy Kennedy's tenure at Ole Miss, the only teams to win more games than the Rebels were Kentucky and Florida. Kennedy's last team was his worst and apparently led to the decision to look for a new coach.
With the newest basketball facilities in the SEC (arena and practice facility), KD will be primed to take Ole Miss to the next step. Save this year, Kennedy averaged over 20 wins a season during his lengthy career at Ole Miss. Look for KD to quickly reach Kennedy's respectable win totals and then surpass them. The addition of former LSU head coach John Brady and possibly Butch "the fixer" Pierre to his staff will make it happen all the sooner.
