Word on the street is that Bruce Pearl will hire Columbia assistant Todd Golden as his DBO at Auburn. Golden played for current Columbia head coach Kyle Smith at St. Mary’s (CA), and has been on his staff for the two seasons. Pearl was the head coach of the 2009 USA Maccabiah games team – Golden was a shooting guard on that squad.

Speaking of Pearl – there are some great shots of Pearl getting dunked in a charity dunk tank today. My favorite is the vine of him making fart noises with his arm pits (seriously) before entering the tank. Check it out: http://www.thewareaglereader.com/2014/04/heres-auburn-basket…#.UzxPAaIkAa4
