Bruce Pearl told Jon Rothstein that he didn't have much more time as the Auburn Tigers basketball program's head coach. The Jewish Insider's Emily Jacobs followed that up by revealing Pearl likely wasn't going to make a run for Alabama's junior US Senate seat.

Jacobs shared a key caveat:

"Sources close to Pearl tell me he is unlikely to enter the contest, though they stress that the Auburn coach has not officially decided against running yet. Pearl wants to give himself a few more weeks in case he were to change his mind," Jacobs wrote.
