📽️ MAKE HISTORY
Bruce Pearl stepped off the plane and approached the Auburn fans who greeted him at the airport on March 18, 2014. “Whatever we do,” Pearl told the crowd, “let’s do it together.” In the ensuing 11 years, Pearl would lead the Tigers to five Southeastern Conference championships and two trips to the Final Four, a remarkable turnaround chronicled in the War Eagle+ documentary, Make History: The Revival of Bruce Pearl and Auburn Basketball.

🔼 Thank You, Coach. Men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl announced he will be retiring from his role, effective immediately. He will move into an ambassador’s role in the athletic department as special assistant to the athletics director. Pearl steps down as the winningest coach in Auburn men’s basketball history with two Final Four appearances, five SEC Championships and six NCAA Tournament appearances.

🔼 Family Tradition. Athletics Director John Cohen announced that Steven Pearl, Bruce’s son, will be the next Auburn men’s basketball coach! Pearl has spent the last 11 seasons on the Auburn staff, serving as associate head coach the past two seasons. He took over defensive leadership of the team four seasons ago, leading Auburn to a Top 10 national ranking in overall defense three times.
“We’re not starting over — we’re building forward, with the same principles that have made Auburn basketball elite. I’m honored to lead this program, and I’m ready to rise to the moment.”

🔼 On Tour. Auburn women’s golf alum Kaleigh Telfer tied for second-place at the Murphy USA El Dorado Shootout on the Epson Tour! She finished the tournament at 3-under after a 4-under 68 final round. She made four birdies on the back nine.
