Auburn Tigers men’s basketball head coach Bruce Pearl spoke in support of President Donald Trump Wednesday as his administration continued to weigh possible U.S. involvement in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. 

The accomplished coach, who has been outspoken in his support of Israel since Hamas' October 2023 terror attacks, addressed the issue during an appearance on OutKick’s "Don’t @ me with Dan Dakich."
