Since he can't do much recruiting, is he allowed to work the next few weeks?

If he's under contract.

Talk about a great way to get around the recruiting blackout. National TV.

He should. The exposure will be good for recruiting.

Would be great for recruiting and boosting the image of Auburn nationally, let's hope so

It's great for the program to have your head coach visible on national TV in the booth commenting and giving his opinion.

Agreed. Would be the best of a bad situation.

tried to see if espn had a comment on tht yet, didn't see it. saw this though:
NCAA spokeswoman Emily James said Auburn has 30 days to file a report to the Committee on Infractions either contesting or accepting the show-cause penalty barring Pearl from recruiting until Aug. 23.
and
According to ESPN Stats & Information, Pearl becomes the fifth coach over the last 50 years to coach multiple SEC schools, joining Don DeVoe (Tennessee/Florida), Tubby Smith (Georgia/Kentucky), C.M. Newton (Alabama/Vanderbilt) and Eddie Fogler (Vanderbilt/South Carolina). Those four coaches all had above .500 records in their second SEC stint.
