Welcome to the Locked On Ole Miss podcast, hosted by Steven Willis! 🏀 Ole Miss basketball may have exited the NCAA tournament at the Sweet 16, but their journey is far from over. With Chris Beard at the helm, the Rebels are poised to become a formidable force. How will Beard's coaching style and strategic use of the transfer portal shape the team's future?

🏆 Ole Miss's Sweet 16 showdown against Michigan State showcased their grit and determination. Despite the loss, the Rebels' physical defense left a lasting impression. Tim Thomas reflects on the game, noting, "We were the most toughest, physical defensive team that he [Michigan State's coach] played in several years."

🔄 Looking ahead, the focus shifts to potential roster changes. Chris Beard's eye for talent in the transfer portal could bring in taller guards and versatile big men. Could players like Pop Isaacs and Nick Pringle be the key to unlocking Ole Miss's potential next season?

🏟️ As the Final Four approaches, we analyze the strengths of teams like Florida, Auburn, Duke, and Houston. Will the Alamodome's unique setting impact the outcome? Steven Willis ponders, "Anytime they play games in stadiums like this, outside shooting can always become a thing that suffers."
