The news comes after the Rebels fell on the road to LSU 82-66 on Saturday, and the team is in the midst of a five-game losing streak. Ole Miss has six games remaining in the regular season and currently hold a sub .500 record at 11-14.
During Kennedy’s tenure, the Rebels have been to the NCAA tournament twice, they won the SEC tournament in 2013, and as mentioned by Parrish, Kennedy is the school’s all-time winningest head coach.
