The 115th season of Ole Miss men’s basketball was a memorable one, as the 2024-25 team left an indelible mark on the program.
The Rebels recorded their second-straight 20-win season in as many years under head coach Chris Beard, punching their ticket to the 2025 NCAA Tournament where they matched the program’s furthest run in the postseason with a Sweet 16 appearance.
Their 24 wins are tied for the third-most in a single season at Ole Miss and included numerous ranked victories, defeating two AP top-five teams in the same year for the first time.
They picked up 10 wins during SEC action, largely regarded as one of the best conferences in college basketball history. The Rebels matched up with 14 ranked teams including six top-five teams, both of which are the most in a single season in program history.
This past season’s team left their mark in more than just winning and success, setting numerous statistical records here at Ole Miss:
