BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Mississippi State coach Chris Jans on Wednesday poked fun at a reporter who brought up a bad coaching memory for him.

That memory was his final game as head coach at New Mexico State in March. It was a 53-48 loss to Arkansas in the second round of the NCAA Tournament in Buffalo, N.Y.

“Yeah, it was a heck of a college basketball game,” Jans said at SEC Media Day.
