It isn't easy to fathom what Bruce Pearl walked into at Auburn in 2014. It was not just that Auburn was a failed loser of a program with no support. It was that many fans were outright hostile to what the basketball team had become. The first thing to know about Auburn is that football is king. It always was and always will be. Getting folks on the Plains to care about basketball has always been daunting, even in the good times. And yet Pearl proved to be an immediate Pied Piper. Pearl has charisma and magnetism that is contagious. Folks naturally gravitate to Pearl, even if they aren’t basketball fans. Just as important, Pearl is a big-time winner.
The story at Auburn Basketball is truly the story of making the right coaching hire. There had certainly been history before Bruce Pearl joined the program in 2014, but it’s clear that the Tigers have been living their best lives since Pearl came aboard. This is a team that spent much of the beginning of the century as an afterthought in the SEC but one that Pearl has really turned into a contender.
First and foremost was the Final Four run back in 2019, the first in the program’s history. Auburn rose to the cream of the crop in a short time under Pearl, who led a rebuilding effort in his first few seasons with the program. Now, he’s led the Tigers to three total trips to the Big Dance, robbed of a fourth trip by the pandemic three seasons ago. Not only is this team no longer an afterthought, but they are remaining a contender even as the roster continues to change.
