SUMMARY: Ole Miss Athletics Director Keith Carter fulfilled his promise to hire a new pitching coach, announcing Joel Mangrum as the new addition. Mangrum, a Brandon native, comes with experience from the Cleveland Guardians and various college programs. He inherits a bullpen struggling in the SEC since their 2022 national championship, with team ERAs of 6.40 in 2023 and 5.88 in 2024. Despite recent disappointing seasons, Head Coach Mike Bianco remains, with financial and contractual reasons cited for his retention. Mangrum aims to revive Ole Miss's fortunes, inspired by Mississippi State's turnaround. The Rebels start their 2025 season in mid-February.
