The entire Flanigan family is keeping its collective fingers crossed this week. The two-day 2024 NBA Draft opens on Wednesday. Now-former Ole Miss wing Allen Flanigan is obviously hoping to hear his name called. But, really, he just wants an opportunity. Any opportunity. “He’s getting a few frequent-flyer miles right now,’ his father, Wes Flanigan, said last week. Flanigan is on staff under Chris Beard as an assistant coach at Ole Miss. “He’s got maybe four or five workouts planned before the draft. He’s just trying to put his best foot forward and see what happens from that point. He’ll have ...

Tylis Jordan — the newest 2025 commitment for Ole Miss basketball — is ranked as a consensus Top 100 recruit across the four major recruiting services. None, though, like him quite as much as On3. The 6-foot-9, 210-pound Jordan is college basketball’s No. 24 overall player, as well as the No. 7 power forward and No. 5 recruit in talent-rich Georgia. “I’m versatile everywhere,” Jordan previously told On3. “I try and be able to do everything the coach asks me to do with what’s needed for the team.” Rivals has him at No. 32, while 247 and ESPN have him slotted at 70 and 90, respectively. Jordan c...

The 2024-25 Ole Miss men’s basketball roster is mostly made up of new Rebels. Ten out of 16 were brought in either through the NCAA Transfer Portal or high-school ranks. John Bol put pen to paper as a four-star recruit ranked as the No. 55 overall player in the 2024 class. He’s just the second McDonald’s All-American to sign with Ole Miss out of high school But second-year Rebel head coach Chris Beard wouldn’t dare have your forget his six returning players.

Ole Miss basketball officially unveiled half of its decorated transfer class on Thursday. The remainder came less than a day later. Arguably the biggest land for now-second-year Ole Miss head coach Chris Beard during the off-season was Sam Houston State guard Davon Barnes. Barnes averaged 13.5 points and 3.5 rebounds in 2023-24. He scored double-figure points in 25 games and shot nearly 40 percent from three. Barnes scored 21 against Ole Miss in the ‘Throwback Game at the Tad Pad’ in November. The Rebels escaped with a 70-67 win. They won 20 games overall but missed the postseason entirely. “I...
