The reason Kermit will likely never leave Middle Tennessee...
After MT's exit from the NCAA there were numerous fans that posted that Kermit would leave MT in a heart beat.

This article discusses his daughter. Read it and you'll understand...

Some people chase money but family and happiness is so much more important in peoples life....if they let it be. While Kermit Davis is not hurting for money. It's good to see he knows where real happiness comes from.

There will come a day when Middle is not winning....

I hope you fans will remember your coach stuck with the program when he most likely could have chased the money. As fans...we sometimes for get this.

I don;t hate Middle like most Western fans. But even those Western fans that despise Middle and Davis on the basketball court. Should respect the man for building that program, the correct way. And from the looks of it...

putting the important things, first.

Plus he already knows what the "big time" is like as a head coach and he played at Phillips County CC in Helena. He knows what bottom of the barrel is like as well.

Like the guy a lot, he's not just some retread collecting a check until he banks enough to head to a life of golf.

What are you talking about Space? I've heard from a half dozen or more fans from other programs that have assured me that there's no way Kermit would ever turn down more money from a power conference team.

He's as good as gone, just ask those fans from other programs who know our coach better than we do...

Hope Kermit stays, easily my favorite coach in the conference. Her story made me feel like a piker sitting on my can all day in retirement. Like Kiffin in football, Kermit's status does does nothing but help the conference.

If Kermit stays CUSA is better for it. I think he has some hard earned respect among WKU fans. If he didn't leave after the Purdue win why would he now all the sudden? You never know, people can change their minds at different points in their lives.

But at 56 I could see the appeal of staying at MTSU another 5-15 years, making a nice living, and retiring a legend there.

I know the Kermit era took a while to rev up to where it is now, but he is truly one of the things that makes MT men's basketball the strongest asset the conference has right now. A good man leading a good team to great things.

Many might argue Kermit has been repaying the loyalty we already showed him when his first decade was the definition of mediocrity.

Very true. I can't believe you guys kept him. (Probably helped we went through our down streak, and those first few wins kept him his job)
