Ole Miss is taking a wait-and-see approach with its hoops coach, but there’s reason to think he’ll re-up before his current contract ends three years from now.

Two years ago to the day, Ole Miss basketball head coach Andy Kennedy signed a contract renewal on a five-year note, the longest allowable contract for a state employee in Mississippi. That extension came following the 2014-15 season, which saw the Rebel hoopmen earn a bid to the big dance round of 68 then lose to Xavier in the round of 64.

As reported by the Ole Miss Spirit’s Ben Garrett on Twitter Friday, though, Kennedy will not sign a contract renewal in 2017, leaving him with three years left on his current deal.
