Coach Joe Moorhead will return to Mississippi State in 2020, according to Sports Illustrated's Ross Dellenger.
Steve Robertson was first to report Moorhead would stay with the Bulldogs.
Dellenger reports Moorhead met with Mississippi State athletic director John Cohen for four hours on Saturday to discuss the program's future. The coach is expected to have his contract extended to a fourth year.
The development comes after rumors swirled earlier this week that Mississippi State could potentially fire Moorhead following a disappointing season in Starkville. However, the Bulldogs beat rivals Ole Miss in the Egg Bowl on Thanksgiving following an absurd ending after Rebels wide receiver Elijah Moore's celebration penalty and a missed extra point attempt.
