Welcome to the Truth with Lisa Booth where we get to the heart of the issues that matter to you. I'm excited about today's guests because we had the legendary coach Bruce Pearl, longtime Auburn basketball coach, but he also coached at the University of Tennessee while I was going to school there. One of the best men's basketball coaches probably in history, but he's a great all time legend. He's now transitioning over to broadcasting. He's going to be working for TNT Sports as well as CBS Sports. So we'll talk about that transition. Of course I'm going to talk to him about his time coaching. Is he gonna miss it? Does he have a favorite school? I'll get all of that and more. We're also going to discuss why he has chosen to be outspoken on some political issues as well, particularly the rise of antisemitism that we've seen on college campuses. He has been outspoken in support of President Trump. He has said President Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. So we'll talk to him about that. How does he think President Trump is doing? We'll talk about the latest ceasefire in the Middle east as well. And then lastly, I'm going to ask him about how colleges and universities have changed throughout his time in coaching. The Manhattan Institute's City Journal is out with new college rankings taking into account some different considerations than we see from the usual college rankings, taking into account things like DEI or free speech. So we'll talk to him about that as well. A lot to discuss with the legendary coach Bruce Pearl. Stay tuned. Well, Bruce Pearl, you're the legendary coach Bruce Pearl. You were actually coaching men's basketball when a while I was attending the University of Tennessee. But you are an absolute legend. So it is great to have you on the show, sir. Really appreciate you making the time.
- [04:58]
B
Lisa, stop. I'm a big fan of yours. I've watched you from the times you got on Fox and as guests and now with your own shows. And so I'm very proud of these of the former University of Tennessee student that's bringing the truth to the world about so Many things that are important. It's great to be with you.
- [05:18]
A
Well, we've got a lot of mutual respect then for this episode, so I appreciate that, sir. It's very kind. Thank you. But like, you are a legend, right? Like, even when you're at Tennessee, you brought, you brought the Bulls to multiple NCAA tournament appearances. We reached the eight at Auburn. You're the school's all time winningest coach. You led Auburn to the Final Four twice, right? So, like, you've got a lot of wins under your belt, awards, like all of it, right? A lot of tournament appearances. Do you miss coaching?
- [05:49]
B
Well, I don't know yet. I've only been out of it for three weeks, you know.
- [05:52]
A
Well, you know, sir, three weeks. Are you going to miss coaching? I gu the better question.
- [05:57]
B
No, Lisa. I miss practice and I do miss teaching and I miss the kids and I miss my coaches. There's no question. But, you know, I'll be 66 in March. I still got plenty in the tank. I'm not retired, but I got to a point where I wasn't waking up every single morning thinking about beating Kentucky or Florida or Alabama or Tennessee. And I started thinking about things like my country and my advocacy for the state of Israel, education, faith, family, you know, things that you guys focus on all the time. And so I really made a thought and thought for about a couple months in the months of May and June about running for the United States Senate and trying to run for Tommy Tuberville's seat after he got done and became our next governor. And I really thought about doing it. The more I got to know about the job, I didn't think I'd love the work I was wanting to serve, but I think the pace and I think the way it runs would bother me. I'm big about bringing people together. I'm big about working together, getting things done. I'm an American more than I'm anything else. And right now the parties are so incredibly divided that I just don't know that I couldn't do more for my country on the outside than in Washington, D.C. do you.
- [07:24]
A
Before we get to that is really important. I want to talk about that is, has Auburn been your favorite? Do you have a favorite? Or is that asking like a parent to pick their favorite kid who have a favorite. What coaching experience? Is there a specific university or college campus that has been. I know Auburn has been your most recent, but has there. Do you have a favorite or, you.
- [07:44]
B
Know, so the favorite stuff like, like, like when we were 10, Tennessee, you know, you could be Kentucky. I mean, I was huge. And so my first year, we go to Rupp arena and Chris Lofton goes off for like 35, and we beat Kentucky for the first time in a long time. And. And then we got a chance to play Kevin Durant and Texas. You were probably a senior then, and that was a huge, huge win. I don't even know if Texas was where they were ranked, but beating Kevin Durant. We had a couple of wins at home over number one ranked teams. We had one against Kansas, and then we had one at Memphis. Do you remember when we went to Memphis in the 12 matchup? It was on ESPN. It was the highest rated show on college basketball. And so for the highest rated show to be Tennessee, Memphis, not North Carolina and Duke or not Kansas or Kentucky, it was just huge. So those are the best times there. And of course, just the runs to the Final Four. The road did a Final Four at Auburn twice. You know, those were. Those were the greatest moments for me.
- [08:50]
A
I mean, it's got to be, you know, I mean, that's. That's as far as you can go. So, you know, that's. That's got to be special. You know, I know you mentioned you were. You're entertaining. Running for Senate in Alabama. You're going to be shifting gears over to broadcasting. How are you feeling about that? I imagine it's got to be exciting. It's something new. You still got to talk about what you love. Basketball. How are you feeling about it?
- [09:15]
B
I'm excited about it. I am so fired up. Turner has put together, you know, they had the greatest basketball show on earth with Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith and Shaq and Ernie Johnson as the host when they were covering the NBA. And they've done it as well as anybody for a long, long time. Well, ESPN now pretty much has the NBA. And so what I thought they both did brilliantly was say, look, we got to keep that team together. And I think Turner's going to produce it. Espn, ESPN is going to air it. And so you're going to still see that show all the time, which is great. But that opened a window for Turner and TNT Sports to begin to look at, let's get into college basketball. So they made a big investment and jumped into the Big east and the Big 12, and they got games. But what they've done is create a pretty much a Saturday show with Adam Levko as host, and he's so the next Ernie Johnson. Adam's incredible. And they're bringing in Jamal Mashburn Jalen Rose and coach Bruce Pearl to be on air pretty much every Saturday and just bring you college basketball. I'm excited about teaching the game, analyzing the game, breaking down the game. LISA the quality of the game right now, college basketball has like never been better. And so, yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I'll be in studio a lot and I'll be calling some games for CBS as well.
- [10:43]
A
I think you're going to you're going to have so much fun with it. I mean one, obviously you know this stuff better than anyone and then to, you know, you're great at it. So it'll just be I'm sure it'll just be fun for you guys, for you. You really enjoy it. You know, you had mentioned where you felt, you know, obviously everything about running for Senate where you felt like you just had to speak out about all these issues that we're seeing in the country. Obviously we saw the horrific terror attacks in Israel as well. It's tough to speak out, particularly when I would say a lot in the media were sort of on the side of Gaza somehow and the plight of the Palestinians and sort of ignoring what happened to Israelis on October 7th and what they went through. So it's not exactly easy to speak out in this environment. Why did you decide to start speaking out and to sort of interject yourself into some of these broader conversations?
- [11:37]
B
LISA for the same reason that you do. In a sense, this may be a job for you, but you're on the side of good versus evil. You are on most issues. You mentioned the plight of the Palestinians. The plight of the Palestinians is self inflicted and it has been since they created the term a Palestinian, Palestinian Authority or whatever, completely and 100% self inflicted. And we obviously, I guess it's not obvious, saw that again on October 7th. Israel has tried and unfortunately failed to live in peace with its, with its with its Arab neighbors. And some and many of those Arab neighbors are now jumping on board the Abraham Accords, the Gulf Arab states. There are 2 million Israeli Arabs that decided back in 1948 they weren't going to leave and they weren't going to fight and they were going to just continue to live right where they were, right where they were. And now there are 2 million of them living their best lives in Israel. The lie and the propaganda and this whole thing about a right to return was some Palestinians left their homes in 1948 because the Arab countries said, listen, you all need to get out of there right now. And you give us about a week or 10 days, we're going to kill every Jew that's left in Israel. You can go back to your house. You can go back to their house. It's going to be ours. And they left and they fought and they lost. And for 80 years, Israel has been trying to find a way to maybe offer land for peace. Like, okay, let's give them Gaza and let's see if maybe giving them their own state in our area, their own autonomy is going to be something that maybe we could get peace. And the answer was we got a terrorist state and we got rockets and we got death and we had to have Iron Dome. And then the atrocities of October 7, 2023, the biggest Holocaust since the Nazi Germany. We're getting the banana peels getting pulled back. And whether the world like what they saw or not, because they were many were against Israel and for Hama plight of the Palestinians, they recognized that this wasn't just the Palestinian leadership. These were Palestinians and these were Gazans. And, you know, there were 6 million Jews killed in the Holocaust, 9 million people over all, Lisa. And there were hundreds and hundreds of stories of the righteous, of people in Germany or Poland or France that were somehow trying to save, hide, protect their Jewish neighbors. You haven't heard one story come out of Gaza where any hostage has left saying, yeah, well, they treated me well, they gave me plenty of food. I was this, I was that. So that's why, Lisa, in a sense, that they're not teaching this in college, they're not teaching this enough in the churches and the synagogues. It's just obviously the truth. And as a coach and a teacher and an American Jew, I sort of feel a responsibility to try and teach the truth.
- [15:03]
A
And just to be clear, I was saying that that's been sort of like the broader narrative from the media. My own personal view is that I don't believe there's enough daylight between the everyday Gazans and Hamas. If you look at polling that's been conducted over the years, or the fact that Gaza, you know, Hamas was elected into governance in Gaza, I believe it was in 2006, if my memory serves me correct. But just so just to be clear on where I stand on this, but you had mentioned that college campuses, you know, it's not this history is not being taught, or, you know, some sort of distorted viewpoint is being taught. Have you. Did you notice antisemitism on college campuses throughout the years? Or obviously we've seen with these encampments after the terror attacks, you know, it got really bad on college campuses and at these universities. But did you notice it before? Or kind of like when did you notice the uptick on anti Semitism on college campuses?
- [15:59]
B
You know, it's amazing, Lisa, we may not have really noticed it that much until the day after October 7th, when the day after 1200 were murdered. 250 kidnapped. 50Americans died on that day and over a dozen were taken hostage, several of whom were executed in captivity. Did we see kids on college campuses cheering for Hamas? And listen, I get it. Who wouldn't want Palestine to be free? When you pose it that way, I would want America to be free. I'd want the Soviet Union to be free, Ukraine to be free, Palestine be free. I get it. But what free Palestine means is to free Palestine of the Jews from the river to the sea, freedom of the Jews by either death or destruction or scaring us to somehow leave. And so I didn't really see it until all of a sudden we saw it on these college campuses, particularly the campuses on the coasts. Now I'll tell you, Lisa, you didn't see it in the South. You did not see it. You didn't see much of it. Tennessee, you didn't see any of it at Auburn. And when there was the beginnings of some of that, the evangelical Christian community or the leadership of these schools were not going to allow their student bodies to be subjected to it.

Everything you'd ever want to know about a neighborhood, including the number of homes for sale, transportation, local amenities, cultural attractions, unique quality, and even things like medium lot size and a noise score. Homes.com. we've done your homework. You know, that's an interesting point because you look at the City Journal, which was founded by the Manhattan Institute, they put out their own college rankings, taking into different things like DEI and free speech and things that aren't always, you know, are not at all taken into account with some of these other college rankings. Talk about the importance of that. And do you think that parents are going to be sort of using a different baseline now when they look at where their kids are going to go to school, to going to go to college or to university?
- [21:55]
B
You know, Lisa, that's a great question. I saw that report as well. You know, higher education, it's at a turning point right now, not to coin a phrase, but I think schools have lost the public's trust, and I think too many colleges have gotten caught up in politics and activism instead of doing what they're supposed to do, like just teaching and challenging students to think for themselves and prepare them for life after graduation. So I agree with you, Lisa. Families and parents and their kids are looking for better options. They want places where students can get a great education, grow as people, be safe, enjoy their college experience. And that's why I think you're seeing more and more students start to choose schools like Auburn, you know, from the South. Lisa, we had 65,000 applications at Auburn for 5,000 spots. There is a rigorous curriculum, there is a faculty that is a mixture of our country and not just in one direction. In fact, I was looking at the report, and the Southeastern Conference, which, where I spent the last couple of decades in my career, has got five schools in the top 15 in the City Journal ranking. Florida was number one. Texas was two. I think A&M was four. Georgia was ranked in the top 10. And then I think Auburn was 15th. And I just think it speaks to the emphasis on excellence and some sort of sanity that are actually taking place in the state institutions of the South.
- [23:37]
A
Also, selfishly, it makes all of us SEC graduates look a lot better because the harder the University of Tennessee gets to get into, then that makes me look better when I say I went to school there. I'm an alumni.
- [23:55]
B
You should brag on, go balls. And look at the migration that's leaving either New York City or leaving California, and they're coming to states like Texas and Tennessee. You know, even truly, even Alabama, Georgia and Florida. These are all SEC schools. You know, most college rankings, they're all about money and prestige and alumni and name recognition. And they really don't tell you anything about the Quality of education or what kind of a student experience that kids are going to have. I mean, that's the thing about Auburn. Our kids are happy. They like it. They're comfortable. So I was. I was kind of pleased to see that. And it just didn't surprise me to see, like, a school like Harvard ranked 37th or maybe so many Ivy League schools that were on the other side of it. Because I think. I think the schools in the south, they're focusing on a tougher curriculum, you know, student life and outcomes. Like, outcomes like, what's your first year salary going to be? Like, what about 10 years? How much debt are you going to have? And I think those are the things that this. It looks like to me anyways. And I've been to all these campuses.
- [25:13]
A
I will.
- [25:13]
B
I'll say this, Lisa. I always tell the kids at Auburn, I said, look, I don't know you walking around. I don't know you, but I know who you are trying to become because you chose to come to Auburn. I know the Auburn man or the Auburn woman that you're trying to become. Loving your country, loving your God, loving your neighborhood at a place that's small enough for you to be important, but big enough for you to do anything in the world. And so I have. Grizz, I have great hopes for higher education, and I believe in free speech, and I believe in the right to peaceful protest. But what we saw on college campuses was not peaceful protest. And they were organized by many people that came from not this country. And they were weaponized, and they were leeching themselves to our students. And you had kids that were cheering, and they were rebels without a cause.
- [26:08]
A
My only bone to pick with the City Journal's rankings. They have University of Florida at number one. Florida is one of our nemesis at the University of Tennessee. Arch nemesis, so. But you've publicly supported President Trump and has previously said that he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. How do you think he's doing so far in the second term?
- [26:33]
B
Well, Lisa, I appreciate many things that you've said and many of the questions you've asked, but one of the things I appreciate what you just said is you must have done your research and your homework, because I was supporting President Trump after he lost in 2020, and I was very, very concerned about the change in the administration. I'd always been kind of a Joe Biden fan. You know, he's a good old boy, and, you know, just. Just good old Joe. I don't mean to downplay it, but I thought he always had A pretty decent heart for Israel. And he wasn't the brightest bulb on the circuit, never was, but. But I think people thought he was a good public servant or whatever. All he did was twist everything that Trump did. He went in day one and changed everything. And so we look at what President Trump inherited, as he would say, he inherited a dumpster fire, he inherited a disaster. He had like a ridiculously high rate in inflation. They were printing money and giving it away. They couldn't ship it out the door faster in the last six months of the administration and what for? Political fate, favor. And they just poured gasoline on inflation and the debt. They funded their allies, enemies. They funded Iran, they funded Hamas, they funded the Palestinian Authority, and they reverted back to some of President Obama's policies of trying to rebalance the power in the Middle east by empowering Iran. And what did they get? They funded Hezbollah in Lebanon, they funded Hamas, and they created this, the democratic leadership created this. When Ukraine was, was not at war with Russia and they were talking about maybe getting into NATO, leadership in this world should have said, listen, you used to be Russia, okay, you're not coming into NATO. We're going to work with you, you're going to work with Russia, you're going to be in best case scenario. But the fact that the world even entertained letting NATO that again, half of it used to be Russia, that sort of brought this war on, we didn't need to have it. So the lack of leadership, the direction they turn the country in, thank God President Trump was elected. I can't even imagine where our country would be right now, whether it be with the debt or, or how these wars that President Trump is trying to solve and create peace, I mean, in my lifetime, and of course I'm 65 years old, I don't think there ever was a president that could have brought the Arab world and the Israelis together to both make these kind of compromise and get these hostages out. When they took 250 hostages, Lisa, if you put a bet down, you could have never dreamed or imagined we'd get so many of them home that are alive. A reminder, there are still 13 that are not bodies that are there, including Omer Neutra, a wonderful American young man. He did it. Trump did it. Now, where do we go from here? Okay? Hamas must be defeated. This enemy must be destroyed somehow, somewhether it's from within or whether it's something that the world needs to take care of. Just follow the different phases of, follow the different steps. And President Trump has been incredible and I just pray for him all the time. And I know that the Republican Party has by and large been very supportive of almost everything that he's done. There are America only folks in our party and I understand it because you know what, the economy isn't great and we shouldn't be funding wars and doing these different things. We should be taking care of folks at home. But Israel has been a great investment. It's been a great bang for the buck in the sense that it's protecting Western civilization, what they do for us in cybersecurity and AI and intelligence. I think Israel has been a great investment and I think when the Middle east becomes peaceful, it'll also become prosperous and that is going to be a great economic boom. The United States of America Got to.

Homes.com we've done your homework, President Trump. I agree with you. He's sort of uniquely special as a politician, but perhaps it's because he's not a politician, you know, and he came in from the outside. Why do you think he's been so successful in getting, you know, whether it be the Abraham Accords or getting the hostages back, doing things, particularly in the Middle east, no one else has been able to do. And do you think we need more like outsiders like him to, to run for office?

I do. I do. Because he's A businessman. He's smart. And one thing I don't think people understand about him. I've only met the president a time or two. He has no idea who I am. But he does listen to people. He brings really smart people in the room, and they talk to him, and he listens. And then he makes great. I always say this. I make better decisions when I have good information. He's got great people around him, and he listens to the arguments on all sides, and then he leads. And the greatest thing that he's doing, the world was missing American leadership. With sane American leadership, the world is going to be better off and there's going to be a better, safer place. And President Trump preaches to the world, look, you should do what's in your best interest. We're going to make America great again. Go ahead and make Canada great again, make Mexico great again, do what's in your best interest. And we're all going to, you know, we're all obviously going to figure this out. The art of the deal. He's able to bring people together. He's able to, you know, hopefully make everybody, you know, have some compromises. And he does not want war. That's been the hardest thing. What's going on in Gaza is he's been really, really patient with Israel as they prosecuted this war. But what people need to understand, the reason why it's taken Israel so long is because they've gone house to house putting their own soldiers. Over 1200 IDF soldiers have died in a war that they did not start. The average age of an IDF soldier is about 33 years old. These are young men with families that are having to go defend their country. This is not what they signed up for. This is not what they asked for. But every young man and woman in Israel has to go to war just to survive. And so the reason why it's taken so long, because In Lisa, in two, three days of carpet bombing, 2 million people could have been killed in this, in this, in this, in this war. And Israel did not do it. They didn't do it. But Hamas is not defeated. And as long as Hamas is still able to be in power and have the weaponry and not demilitarized, the Gulf Arab states have already said, we're not going to spend a penny where they're at, because all it's going to be is thrown away. They got to defeat this enemy first, then rebuild Gaza, and then you've got a chance for prosperity.
