Ole Miss extends contract of Matt Insell

By John Davis, Oxford Citizen

A trip to the postseason, the first in five seasons for the Ole Miss women’s basketball team, was just one of the reasons Matt Insell got his contract extended Wednesday.

Insell, who just completed his second season as the head coach of the Rebels, continued to show improvement and produce memorable moments along the way. After being picked to finish last in the SEC standings prior to the season, Insell led the Rebels to 19 overall wins, and a 7-9 mark during the regular season in the SEC.

Ole Miss also advanced to the Women’s National Invitation Tournament, winning two games before falling to his father’s Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders in the third round.
