Chris Beard Transfer Portal Targets to Watch During March Madness - Locked On Ole Miss Podcast

We look at the early days of the Chris Beard and Ole Miss Rebels basketball team, from re-recruiting his own players to hiring assistant coaches. We talk to Tim Thomas about the hiring and what it means to Ole Miss basketball.

Today's Locked On Ole Miss Podcast discusses the early days of Chris Beard with Ole Miss basketball and his workload so far. 

We talk about how Brian Burg and Al Pinkins potentially coming on board is huge, but the re-recruitment of current players like Jaemyn Brakefield, Matthew Murrel and Daeshun Ruffin are paramount to the early days of this job.

In the second segment of the show, we talk about transfer portal targets that Ole Miss might be going after, and we start with Jaylon Tyson and Robert Jennings from the Texas Tech Red Raiders. System fit becomes a major selling point for players from the Texas Longhorns and the Texas Tech Red Raiders.

Then we move on to Jayden Taylor from the Butler Bulldogs and Myles Slute from the Vanderbilt Commodores, and one thing you notice is length. We end with BJ Mack from the Wofford Terriers.

In our final segment of the day, Tim Thomas, a former player at Ole Miss under Bob Weltlich and our basketball analyst, talks about what the hire means to him personally and gives hints about what the system may look like.
