On this episode of The Phillip Jordan Show, Phillip opens the show with an important announcement about the future direction of the podcast — shifting to a stronger Auburn focus while still keeping conversations centered on the SEC and the national sports landscape. Phillip then dives into Auburn basketball’s 91–79 loss to Oklahoma — the Tigers’ sixth loss in their last seven games — and what it means for their NCAA Tournament hopes. With Auburn now squarely on the bubble, Phillip questions whether Steven Pearl is ready to be a head coach and examines whether Bruce Pearl set him up to succeed by returning just one key player in Tahaad Pettiford — who has struggled shooting this season — while navigating one of the toughest schedules in college basketball. Later in the show, Cole Thompson of Sports Talk 790 in Houston and SEC Unfiltered joins Phillip for a wide-ranging conversation. They discuss radio vs. podcasting, Auburn football under new head coach Alex Golesh, the pressure mounting on Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer, and who could emerge as contenders in the 2026 SEC football race. A loaded episode covering Auburn hoops, SEC football, and the evolving sports media landscape.
