Ole Miss Athletics is on the rise and it is both an exciting and significant time for Rebel Nation as we move Forward Together. The UMAA Foundation is grateful for your passion and support, which has fostered yet another record breaking year. We look forward to building on this achievement, starting with your investment in the Men’s Basketball Priority Seating Fund. Coach Kennedy and his staff have assembled one of the deepest and most talented rosters to date and we are thrilled to see how they excel this season.

Commitment, sacrifice and a healthy sense of optimism are the hallmarks of success in competition and the classroom. We require this from our student-athletes and we’re now asking the same of you. With your help we can ensure that our student-athletes are learning, training and competing in the finest facilities in the country. We can also make certain that every recruit who visits our campus feels as though there is no other place, but Ole Miss.

Your dedication to Ole Miss Athletics is critical to our student-athletes and coaches having the necessary resources to compete for and win conference and national championships.

Again, thank you for all that you have done and continue to do for Rebel Athletics.

Go Rebs!
