STARKVILLE — The Mississippi State men’s basketball season is here.

The Bulldogs open the 2024-25 season at Humphrey Coliseum against West Georgia on Monday (6:30 p.m., SEC Network+). It’s Chris Jans’ third season as coach, and expectations are high after consecutive NCAA tournament appearances.

MSU lost Tolu Smith III but retained freshman phenom Josh Hubbard and supplemented with six transfer portal additions.
