Providence Signs South Florida Coach Bryan Hodgson

Bryan Hodgson joins Providence after a 25-9 season at South Florida, bringing a 70-37 career coaching record and proven success in offense and defense efficiency.

  • On March 22, 2026, Providence confirmed it hired Bryan Hodgson as its next men's basketball coach, sources told ESPN as he finalizes a deal with the Friars.
  • Earlier this month, Providence dismissed Kim English, former Providence head coach, after a 15-18 season and a three-season record 48-52 without an NCAA Tournament appearance.
  • Earlier at Arkansas State, Hodgson produced a 25-11 Sun Belt title in 2024-25 and owns a 70-37 career record, guiding teams to top 100 KenPom efficiency rankings.
  • With players entering the transfer portal earlier this week, Hodgson's first order of business will be retaining Stefan Vaaks and Daquan Davis amid Providence's reported eight-figure NIL commitment through at least 2026-27.
  • Reports indicate Hodgson will mark his third head-coaching stop in three years, having turned down an offer from Syracuse earlier this week, Providence athletic director Steve Napolillo said.
