After Ole Miss Men’s Basketball’s historic run to the Sweet 16, Rebel head coach Chris Beard expressed his gratitude for the fans that stuck by the team all season.
“I think the main message is thank you. It was a successful season,” Beard said in an interview with The Daily Mississippian. “There’s some real measuring stick scores, but we also had a lot of victories with our attendance and student section turnout.”
Ole Miss finished the season 24-12 (10-8 SEC), ending with a 73-70 loss to No. 2 seed Michigan State in the Sweet 16 round of the NCAA Tournament on March 28.
