Social media reacts to Bruce Pearl taking TV gig for 2025-26 CBB season ...Middle East

News by : (SATURDAY DOWN SOUTH) -

Bruce Pearl’s decision to resign from Auburn was shocking. His rumored run for political office that followed was perhaps even more startling. Where he ultimately landed after leaving the Tigers in his son’s hands, though, is not a surprise.

On Thursday morning, TNT Sports announced its studio team for the 2025-26 college basketball season. Pearl will hold down the coaching chair for TNT while Jalen Rose (Michigan) and Jamal Mashburn (Kentucky) fill the player positions. Chris Webber (Michigan) will also join on occasion. Last, but certainly not least, Adam Lefkoe will anchor everything in the “Ernie Johnson” host role for the crew.

“Our studio shows have always had a certain DNA that is unique to TNT Sports, and we take great pride in assembling the right blend of personalities capable of extending that culture,” Craig Barry, TNT Sports’ Chief Content Officer, said in a press release announcing the news. “We believe we’ve found a distinctive balance with this college basketball team and we’re confident fans will be entertained by their perspectives, the storytelling and access they provide from their experiences in and around the game.”

Pearl is no stranger to in-studio appearances for TNT. He served as an analyst for the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Thursday last season, the day before Auburn played Alabama State. He assisted on other NCAA tournaments in the past as well. It’s clear he’s eager to take on this new challenge.

Excited to be apart of this incredibly talented group, showcasing college basketball. The quality of our game right now has never been better. There are dozens of teams capable of making a Final Four run and we are going to bring ALL THAT ACTION! @Big12Conference @BIGEAST t.co/fFSJBKiF65
