OXFORD, Miss. – The NCAA announced four new members to their Division I Men's Basketball Committee on Thursday, selecting Ole Miss Vice Chancellor for Intercollegiate Athletics Keith Carter to the council for a five-year term.
A former Rebel All-American basketball player and decorated fundraiser and administrator at Ole Miss, Carter's time as the head of the department has marked one of the most successful periods in history of the university. Since taking the helm in 2019, Ole Miss has seen two team national champions, record postseason results across all sports, four teams ranked No. 1 in the country and its three best finishes ever in the Learfield College Directors' Cup.
Prior to his appointment to Athletic Director, Carter served as the Deputy A.D. for Development and Resource Acquisition with the Rebels. He joined the athletics department in Oxford in September of 2009, spending seven years as Executive Director for the Ole Miss Athletics Foundation. Under his guidance, the Foundation experienced its four highest years for donations, and in 2016, Carter received the Fundraiser of the Year Award from the National Association of Athletic Development Directors.
A staple in the college basketball world, Carter left his mark as a four-year starter at Ole Miss and helped lead the Rebels to a pair of SEC Western Division titles in 1997 and 1998. An All-American as a senior in 1999, he received all-conference honors in 1998 and 1999 and sits in the top 10 for career points in a Rebel uniform with 1,682.
