STARKVILLE — Joe Moorhead will return to Mississippi State next season.
Sources confirmed to The Dispatch that Moorhead will be retained despite rumors he was on thin footing in Starkville.
The Bulldogs closed their regular season with a 21-20 win over Ole Miss on Thursday, extending MSU’s school record 10-year bowl streak.
Moorhead is now 14-11 in his first two years at MSU, matching previous coach Dan Mullen’s mark at this same juncture.
