LSU is set to hire Murray State coach Matt McMahon as its next head men’s basketball coach, according to multiple reports Monday afternoon. 

Linked to South Carolina as one of USC’s top candidates to replace Frank Martin, McMahon chose the Tigers over the Gamecocks, according to a report from college basketball insider Jeff Goodman. The Post and Courier’s David Cloninger reported that USC officials were visitingMurray, Kentucky on Monday. But national reporter Matt Norlander said he was told McMahon passed on the job “days ago.”

McMahon, 43, is an ascending coach who has taken the Racers to three NCAA tournaments since taking over as head coach in 2015. This season, McMahon led the Racers to a 31-3 record with their NCAA tournament run ending in the Round of 32 to Cinderella team Saint Peter’s.
