Chris Beard Remains at Ole Miss with Enhanced NIL Package amid Texas A&M Coaching Search
Chris Beard will stay at Ole Miss, bolstered by increased funding and a significant NIL budget as Texas A&M searches for a new coach.
Chris Beard, the head coach of Ole Miss, will continue with the team following a raise and a new NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) budget anticipated to be among the top five in the SEC. This news comes as he was considered a candidate for the Texas A&M coaching position.
“Beard will receive a raise and an NIL budget considered to be top five within the SEC to remain with the program.” “Beard was a logical candidate to replace Buzz Williams at Texas A&M due to his connections in Texas.”
The new funding aims to solidify Beard’s commitment to Ole Miss, especially after his recent success, leading the team to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2001.
As the search for a new head coach at Texas A&M progresses, potential options include Brad Underwood from Illinois, Grant McCasland from Texas Tech, Chris Jans from Mississippi State, Fred Hoiberg from Nebraska, and Porter Moser from Oklahoma.
