Everyone knew that Bruce Pearl had a rebuilding job ahead of him when he took over as head coach of Auburn in 2014. And the first two seasons have certainly been rocky.
The good news? Pearl has compiled a talented group of players heading into next season, including the school’s first-ever five star recruit in Mustapha Heron.
Ken and I had the opportunity to catch up with Pearl on the Marching to Madness podcast, as we rolled through some of the players that have entered the program since last season, and also touched on what else Pearl has been up to this offseason.
