In November, it looked like Bruce Pearl could be fired as Auburn's basketball coach.

On Monday, they decided to extend the relationship a few more years.

Pearl and Auburn agreed to a contract extension that will keep him with the program through the 2022-2023 season.

"Our coaches and student-athletes believe in Auburn and we love it," Pearl said. "We came here to work hard, make a positive difference on the campus and in the community and bring credibility and championships back to Auburn basketball. I'm grateful to President Dr. Steven Leath and Director of Athletics Allen Greene for their commitment and support.
