Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Johni Broome knocked off Morgan Freeman hand after grabbing his jersey in basketball court.
Ole Miss basketball coach Chris Beard vowed to make his team’s tickets hot commodities when he took the job in March 2023.
He has succeeded in that endeavor in less than a calendar year. He also has succeeded in bringing the stars to SJB Pavilion. Actor and filmmaker Morgan Freeman again was in attendance for Ole Miss’ game against No. 16 Auburn on Saturday in his courtside seat.
There’s no denying it, Ole Miss basketball is in the middle of some quite interesting times and in a really unique way. What other school has the most popular and viral floor manager in the country (one of the top stories in college basketball), Morgan Freeman attending multiple games in a season and is as successful as Ole Miss is now? None. Don’t forget this team is also undefeated at home this season (13-0).
Later today Ole Miss will be taking on No. 16 Auburn. The last time these two squared off, Auburn defended home court well as they handedly took down Ole Miss, 82-59. Now that the Rebels have established one of the best home courts in college basketball, they could knock off anyone if they’re in the game late.
On another note, his Ole Miss fandom may be getting even bigger. Freeman was spotted wearing a sweater that read “#ComeToTheSip” right across his body. That’s a slogan Ole Miss football head coach Lane Kiffin brought to Oxford and now the term has taken the University’s athletic world by storm in recent years. Kiffin acknowledged Freeman wearing the hoodie and would certainly give it a nod of approval.
