Pearl has been at Auburn since 2014 and has 1 Final Four appearance and 1 SEC Championship with the Tigers.
Freeze was announced as the next Auburn HC after spending the previous 4 seasons at Liberty. Freeze led the Flames to at least 8 wins in each of his 4 seasons, including 3 bowl wins over that time. Freeze replaces Bryan Harsin as the full-time head coach.
It is expected that Cadillac Williams, who had been the interim HC, will be retained on Freeze’s staff.
