Paul Finebaum: β€˜Pretty embarrassing’ Bruce Pearl admitted using nepotism to get son Auburn job We all know how rampant and obvious nepotism is in so many fields, especially the world of coaching. Guys with famous dads routinely get a leg up, regardless of whether they deserve it. But you’re not supposed to just admit it.
