It's been less than a month since Auburn hired Bruce Pearl, and the 54-year-old coach has already taken his shirt off.
Pearl was spotted this week manning the dunk tank at a fraternity fundraiser on campus. Shirtless, of course.

And the fun-loving former ESPN analyst looks like he had a blast:
This isn't the first time Pearl has bared his chest. While at Tennessee during his most recent head coaching gig, Pearl painted his body and stood in the student section at a women's basketball game:
Is Bruce Pearl the first one to land a job on tv after going shirtless and painted up, publicly, as a grown-ass man? pic.twitter.com/6Gzq9CZhSQ

It won't be all fun and games for Pearl in his new job. He's got some serious work to do at Auburn, which hasn't had a winning record since 2008-09 and haven't made the NCAA tournament since 2003.
